[@BobSharpe]

What ETFs are you excited about? The program I use to show charting and research on my ETFs is Seeking Alpha. Grab a discount and get a premium membership (this is what I have in the videos): averagetoamazing.com/go/seekingalpha

[@SmilingDessert-cs2le]

So what should we do if we overlap VTI and VOO or other funds?

[@armandochavez4398]

I’m staying focus with VOO and SCHD

[@matthewklenke7693]

Can't lose

[@Lonovavir]

VTI, SCHD and VXUS here.

[@Gunieapower33]

Snooze fest

[@TheDGICrab]

I definitely base it off age. High growth when young, higher yield when old. I think you are right with 3 ETFs if you also have individual stocks, and maybe 5-6 if all you have are ETFs.

[@jasdeepshangari]

I currently have 5 ETFs SPLG, SCHD, SOXQ, QQQM, and XLV (I like healthcare sector too).

[@cheezygullyside9164]

Voo and QQQM

[@tomrocha]

I like XLK

[@graceypatrick]

I have dgro, Schd, schg, and Schb in my main portfolio. And those are my favorite ETFs

[@XoKingChaseXo]

you only need 3 max and maybe even two *SPYG+SHM* then (SCHD) for dividend purposes.

[@BobSharpe]

SPYG has some 💪

[@MrLogicGuy]

I invest in only 2 SCHD SCHG And about 20 individual stocks

[@etfeasy]

VOO all the way and may be little percentage of SH for hedge and BIL for treasury

[@drsonnysell4471]

Thanks Big Bob

[@outdoormatt2177]

Another great video and as you say so many ETFs to choose from, I’m investing in SOXQ, VOO, SCHD im am worried about adding more and spreading my money to thinly. Do you think that’s a problem?

[@Frazmoo90]

I picked a 3 core for me. Spy, qqqm, and good ole schd.

[@zelowatch30]

Good video. I had some doubts about ETFs. I do both but food stocks are my favorite for long term gains.

[@samsamss3189]

This is on my plate VOO VYM VUG and to spice it up, a very light sprinkle of GME AMC RIVN.

[@FranciscoAfricano]

VOO vs VTI? What’s your thought?

[@mattinterweb]

Nice video. Are you not concerned about SCHD's realtive underperformance against SPY the last few years. What might change that?

[@Tayball723]

VOO, QQQM, SCHD and SMH

[@007NowOnline]

What percentage of your contributions are going to each?

[@RamonAcosta191]

IBIT VTI VOO VUG VGT SCHD SMH TAN MJ

[@enriquecollazo1442]

How about IVV?

[@evroving3431]

Considering XLK as alternative to VGT and cheaper on expense

[@jimbow4677]

MR. Bob Sharpe thank you so much for taking the time to explained and open my eyes on how much money I'm throwing away you are the Man

[@BobSharpe]

In glad this was helpful, thanks for commenting!

[@adamantonovitch8278]

Well, I am Canadian and I do have an ETF that I go with, which pays out monthly dividends it's hdiv. The other one is voo. 13:33

[@Tobi4s.Bonifay]

I have a big part of MSCI world quality, with a bit of AEX EUR and SLI CHF, what do you think of that kind of portfolio? I'm scared of US tech specific etf being deeply in drawdown if NVIDIA is crashing after such a high 🥺

[@Gio-zi5lw]

I have 40%VGT, 40%VTI,10%VNQ,10% VXUS

[@supercruchynoodle]

My three main ones are VOO, QQQM, and VXUS (I prefer international stocks hence VXUS maybe it has to do with living in different countries).

[@Gunieapower33]

Vxus over 5 years is +14% 🗑️

[@cagsd2703]

What’s your take on JEPQ?

[@mengkham]

TDVI etf is beating the SPY with a distribution yield of 7-8%. Could you review this one?

[@itayyona647]

Is smh good? I’m 23 and have a mutual fund tracking the s&p500 and I put 500+ dollars a month and I want to invest in other things

[@RamonAcosta191]

IBIT VTI VOO VUG VGT SCHD SMH TAN MJ

[@punisher6659]

Good video.

[@BobSharpe]

Thanks!

[@ronbmor]

Thank you Mr. Bob My portfolio: VOO 55%~SCHD 15%~QQQM+VGT 30% I probably have to adjust the percentages.

[@bobpoland6042]

I think I will buy some of each 😂 some diversity in my portfolio

[@ZakiSalem-zh5gr]

VGT all the way

[@nightwalker1636]

When you say invest $500 a month, you mean on each ETF or spread across all of them? Im a bit confused

[@KevinBaker-vk6ri]

SCHG 60 % & SCHD 40 % HSA Brokerage all in VTI

[@austinehasz3907]

Fund overlap is a little overrated. Qs and VTI biggest overlap, is MSFt at 6.7% Apple at 6.2%Meta2.2% ,google2.2% After that does it matter? I love all these stocks ^ if i owned VTI and a few individual stock of MSFT, along with Apple stock. It would take Thousands invested in the Qs to equal that fund over lap. Just be ok with your overlap it won’t kill gains it’s actually enhanced mine !!

[@devious461]

33% schd, 33% schg 34% sphd

[@oonminloong9929]

more concentrate on qqqm.

[@Me-into-We]

The only etf currently in my portfolio is #BITO. And I do not know my cost on this. In fact, sadly I wasn't even aware of the fees. I thought the fees was a shwab thing. ( which since td ameritrade kicked us all to shwab. I am totally unhappy. To the point I'm thinking of closing the account. )

[@jamescares9003]

Hey Bob, I have SCHG and SPLG, is it overkill to add XLG?

[@jollama]

No one understands what you typed

[@tampham5623]

@@jollamabe nice

[@jollama]

@@tampham5623 Do you? Let’s see your answer then

[@jodo7814]

If vti tracks the entire us market, and 99.6% of voo stock (basically the s&p 500) is in vti, what does that say about the us market as a whole? Scary stuff.

[@Felikios]

Where is the link. Not pinned I have S&p 500 from spdr, invesco nasdaq, vaneck semiconductors Based in uk

[@Nonblau]

I'm saying QQQM & SCHD!!!

[@nimrod.23]

TQQQ the american dream etf

[@matthewluong9447]

VOO

[@Tempest.213]

FCEF just a terrible ETF. no one would buy into it for 7% dividend and have to pay 3% expense ratio, there are many etf out there pays over 8+% with expense somewhere between 0.35-0.7% expense ratio. and i think you using growth etf compare with an income etf its bad example since those 2 types of etf is not for the same goal.

[@BobSharpe]

Not the same goal but both are active - that’s why I used them. But definitely feel free to stack up the others too, that’s the beautiful of those free tools like portfolio visualizer and ETFRC

[@blktauna]

Why would someone buy into that youtuber dude's fund? WHY? Expense ratios are huge, so are 12b-1 fees. No load and low fees people!

[@GlizzySan]

Smh, voo, schd

[@kdratio69]

[@Atraa]

Voo :)

[@austinehasz3907]

These boggle heads take fund overlap to another level
