We all would love to wake up one day, check our brokerage accounts, and see the value of our investment top $1 million. The bad news is that this probably won't happen overnight. But the good news is that by investing wisely over the long term, this could happen over time.
And I have even more good news for you: You don't have to be an investing genius to win in the stock market. Instead, a few wise decisions and some patience may go a long way, helping you grow your investment significantly -- even past the million-dollar mark.
So, if your goal is to become a millionaire, you might be wondering if one of today's much-talked-about investments could help you get there. I'm talking about a good S&P 500 index fund, one that tracks the movements of this benchmark, replicating its gains or losses. One to consider is the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEMKT: SPY) -- is it a millionaire maker? Let's find out.
