/biz/ - Business & Finance

what am i missing here?

pretty much every youtuber, every financial expert, every talking head tells you to buy index funds through companies like vanguard and hold long term. surely there has to be some risk or downside they're not telling us about, i mean if everyone did this then they wouldn't have a goy underclass to work for them.

does /biz/ into index funds? how long have you been doing it and how has it gone so far?

>DUDE, JUST DCA IN TO VTSTAX FOR THE NEXT 30 YEARS

How many of you actually invest into ETFs? How long have you been doing it and how much are you up/down?

>DUDE, JUST DOLLAR COST AVERAGE IN TO VTI OVER 40 YEARS AND YOU'LL BE SET FOR RETIREMENT!

Anyone /lifestrategy/ here? I am thinking about just putting everything into their LifeStrategy 60% Equity ETF and relax.

I have $5k to invest, should I buy Vanguard ETFs?

YOU CAN STILL BUY GME ON VANGUARD

HOP ABOARD

Vamguard people. Gotta get into GME somehow. Do it within your IRA if you have to.

What is the best ETF?
for the sake of argument let's say a moderate level of risk/return
Is it one of Vanguards or is there a better option?

You're not actually all in on meme coins right?

This boat will bring you wealth in the long term, no short term pajeet scams

Why don't you hold a safe, passive, low cost investment?

My stock portfolio is 100% equity since a long timeframe.
Core is vanguard FTSE all world, I want this to >=50%
If I add thematic ETFs and crypto. How would I figure out asset allacation?
Is there any point calculating alpha & beta of assets?
Or is it just guesswork
