Excellent video you explain this well!

Tae, thank you so much, this information is golden!! I love your videos. I understand that VTSAX and VFIAX are awesome funds and have shown a great performance in the last 10-12 years, but why are you recommending VBTLX and VTIAX as long term buy and hold? They have been only going up and down with not much net gain? Am I missing something?

Thanks for this. My company switched to Vanguard and I had to re-enroll in my 401k and Roth 401k plans. This video helped me in choosing my contributions.

Thank you Tae ! I've been evaluating the idea of managing our own retirement funds, to save on fees. These are some interesting ideas, worth considering! I'm wondering what you think about real estate exposure through VHQ or O ?

[richpontone]

You forgot VGT. If you invested $10, 000 in 2014, it now be worth $60, 000 and at .10% expense fee, this is a keeper.

Thank you, Tae! I watched one of your videos a few weeks ago for the first time and have been watching them regularly; I'm now a fan.

You provide excellent content with an easy-to-understand delivery.

If my mortgage is at a 3.75% interest rate, would you recommend sending extra money towards my principal or investing the extra money in the stock market?

[djEddieCutlass]

If it’s too late for me to save for retirement, these funds all look great for me to start for my newborn kid and give them a head start.

All 5 mentioned in this video is doing amazing this year. Yay!

How about the Vanguard REIT index fund?

[HelderP]

Tip:
If you're on Fidelity, there's similar funds to these where you'll save a few percentage points in exp ratio.

Keep it simple. VTSAX is the best option.

How many mutual funds is good to have? I have two and thinking of an international fund for my third.

Finding it hard to translate these ticker names or fund names into The Australian vanguard

[ianscianablo]

I need an opinion. My first Roth Ira. Any thoughts on VMGAX?

[gvhoipn]

Can you please create an updated post, since the landscape has changed and will change significantly.

[mccoyji]

Is there a fund where I can exclude tesla and apple and meta, and Netflix, and Amazo? And Google and Microsoft?

[Miaisabelle-ykrd]

📌 I wasn't financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone's that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.
