You can invest it in whatever you want. If you want a target date retirement fund, the iShares LifePath series would be good to check out. ITDJ is the 2070 fund, ITDI is 2065, ITDH is 2060, etc. You could go with a static allocation fund like AOA, which is 80% global equities and 20% bonds. Or basically anything else you want.
If you’re looking for “set and forget” I would liquidate everything ASAP and put it into: ishares Lifepath Target Date 2065 ETF, stock symbol ITDI. That fund is more aggressive when you’re young, and shifts to more conservative as you reach retirement age. Highly rated.
> (ITDI) ishares 2065 target date fund ETF; $100.00 (6.66%) As you are investing so actively you don't want this one. This one is for people who don't invest actively and automatically re-balances. For instance, it owns bonds you don't want right now. You are 19. Just rebalance this to VOO or similar and you are good to go. As you have started so early you will be doing well. You could literally just VOO and forget, and if you keep up that $1,500 a month, especially at your age, you'll be doing great.
Hello, I am a nineteen year old, currently making my way through college while living at home, who's recently come to the decision to bump up the amount that I'm investing on a monthly basis. I'm also looking to further diversify my portfolio, and could use some advice on how I should go about doing so. Previously, I've been investing, roughly, $750.00/per month into two primary stocks. Nvidia, and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF. I've decided to bump up my investment amount by double, and am now going to be putting in $1,500.00 per month. This is my current idea for allocation at the end of each month: Per month/$1,500.00 General ETFs: $1,200.00 (80.00%) —(SPY) SPDR S&P 500 ETF; $600.00 (40.00%) —(IVV) ishares core S&P 500 ETF; $250.00 (16.66%) —(SOXX) Ishares Semiconductor ETF; $250.00 (16.66%) —(ITDI) ishares 2065 target date fund ETF; $100.00 (6.66%) Dividend Funds: $150.00 (10.00%) —(SCHD) Schwab US Dividend ETF; $100.00 (6.66%) —(PLD) Prologis Inc.; $50.00 (3.33%) REITs: $100.00 (6.66%) —(VNQ) Vanguard Real estate ETF; $100.00 (6.66%) High-risk; $50.00 (3.33%) (Crypto, individual stocks, emerging markets, etc.) —(IBIT) iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF; $25.00 (1.66%) —(BITX) 2× Bitcoin Strategy ETF; $25.00 (1.66%) Any advice is appreciated, and thank you for your time!
