You may be graduating from college, starting your first job or developing a new interest in your finances. And you may be feeling like the lessons about money you learned growing up weren't quite enough to prepare you to be an effective money manager as an adult. The good news is, it's never too late to learn money management basics and create the foundation for your financial future.

Some mutual fund companies offer balanced or asset allocation investments that provide exposure to multiple asset classes. These can be a great choice for investors who don't want to manage asset allocation on their own.

That's because one investment type may be in favor when another isn't doing as well. Some mutual funds, such as asset allocation funds and funds of funds, offer exposure to different asset classes in a single investment. Remember, however, that diversification alone does not ensure against loss.
