Labor-Intensive Investing

There is a post on The Simple Dollar describing how much work it can require to "beat the market" while investing: Investing and the Time You Have.

I don't want to spend that much time just deciding how to move my money around. That's why I stick with low-cost, low-maintenance index funds. It gives me more time for things that are more fun and important, like my family, work, community and church activities, and my part-time degree.
