    I have a 3 fund portfolio but I have finally decided to invest in ETFs, alongside. I’m looking at SCHD, VTI, XLK or SCHG.

      Not necessarily, though there’s a fair amount of overlap however that's not a negative. I know for a fact a well diversified portfolio brings about tremendous value. With an initial deposit of 127k, I've had a great run investing in the past seventeen months with appreciation and dividends- - more than quadrupled. Just hit $500K!

      I've lost a lot in the markets and I feel pretty stupid for not understanding how investing works. Hell, despite having a double major in economics I’ve been struggling to make sense of the market. Kind of a difficult concept to grasp and I am feeling overwhelmed at this point. Well done on profits!

      I hear you. It's completely normal to feel overwhelmed, especially when the market doesn't behave as expected. One rule I follow is that I don't put my money into anything I don't understand... By actually keeping it simple and leveraging pro guidance from a reputable CFA I make more money with way less headaches. However on average, she takes 10% of earnings, but using *Lina Dineikiene's* system allows for a more hands-off approach. I conservatively follow her recommendations and buy and sell strategies, and tbh this makes it possible for me... I am convinced it's not just hard work but smart work:-)

    Thank you for the video! One thing stopping me from investing into ETFs is not knowing how to do the tax at the EOFY. Could you please make a video how to do taxes in Australia as someone who is investing into stocks/ETFs? And how would it work if investing into US ETFs?

    Hi Raymond, I have another question. Once you have bought/invested an amount of money into an ETF, do you need to continuously invest money into that same ETF, for example each month? I am asking this as I have heard of the “buy and hold” strategy where you invest your money and let it sit? I would appreciate clarification

    • @raymondla
      @raymondla  2 місяці тому +4

      You could just buy and hold your initial investment, but by continuously investing you're taking advantage of compound interest and you'd see your wealth increase at a faster rate as opposed to just investing the one time.

    The market's volatility makes DIY dangerous. You do not need to identify the next NVDA to be successful in investing. Choose top-tier ETFs, dividend aristocrats, and a trusted advisor. I turned $180k into $20k in quarterly dividends, which is an exciting milestone

For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $130k in passive diversified safe-haven assets, Up 358k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.
