If the Guide wasn't clear, perhaps there is room for improvement, but
that setup wizard is just to get you started. You can add and remove
accounts all you want after the fact. (with some caveats if removing
accounts that contain transactions)
You can even skip that new hierarchy setup entirely and create all of
your accounts from scratch.
GnuCash would be a in a sad state indeed if adding an account after the
initial setup destroyed data!
You don't have to use the wizard, just click the 'New' button on the
toolbar when viewing the Accounts tab. Then follow the examples in the
Guide.

Hi, David.
Thanks for the reply.
I have of course read about using the New Account Heirarchy Setup to add
the investment accounts.
But I thought it would be a great idea to ask first if my existing data
would be lost.
