Q: I have a LIRA account and don’t plan to make any withdrawals for the next 15 years. I’m looking for “buy-and-hold” stock and/or ETF investment ideas that would suit this long-term timeframe.

Any additional suggestions on how you would approach this situation if it were your own account would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
