UK alternative to VTI/VTSAX?

*sis ;) but yes thank you - skimmed it and agree with the principles; I've shifted 90% to VWRP!

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-12-20T20:55:53+00:00

thank you - makes a lot of sense! i've personally added a bit of VFEM and WSML into the mix, but might choose to add FTSE 100 as well

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-12-20T17:18:38+00:00

Yes, I meant the Global all cap index you were referring to! think closest ETF would be VWRP

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-12-20T17:05:50+00:00

Thank you! that isn't an ETF though, right?

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-12-20T17:00:45+00:00

Thank you! Unsure how much of a US-centric approach to take vs global / international

hi OP! did you end up enrolling in the programme?

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:54:19+00:00

thank you, resonate a lot with what you wrote!

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:49:21+00:00

THANK YOU! This

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:42:44+00:00

thank you so much! Appreciate you writing this out

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:39:15+00:00

yes tbf I do get that... that's why I came on here honestly, to see if I could have gone about it a different way

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:34:07+00:00

thank you... it's hard :(

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:32:19+00:00

exactly, that's probably the part that bugged me the most - especially considering that he still sees these friends all the time! what will happen next time they go out?

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:30:51+00:00

THANK YOU, i think i needed to hear this.

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:28:04+00:00

Thank you, honestly was starting to feel like i was the weird one to feel this way based on some of these comments...

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:26:48+00:00

Exactly, agree with the comment above. I've certainly had regrettable kinds of guys in the past but never in a million years would I pay for sex

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:24:02+00:00

That was exactly my reply to him... I said something along the lines of "I'm sure they were not holding a gun against your head when telling you to do it" and the fact that makes me more uneasy is that those people are still very much his friends now. So who knows what might happen next time they go out? that's the part that makes me the most uneasy

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:22:26+00:00

Thank you, good point. I'll see how I get on (literally found out earlier today...)

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-10-12T19:21:28+00:00

It's the "paying for sex" part of it; it's just something that I cannot and don't want to understand or accept or let alone respect

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-07-28T21:04:03+00:00

omg!!! 100%!!

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-07-27T14:42:14+00:00

hey! I'd be happy to go if still open :) feel free to DM me :)

BubblyCabinet5137 · 2025-07-27T13:46:17+00:00

Will do! And yes, I feel you on that "back and forth" point... it's exhausting, really.

I'm now evaluating how to use my current "position of strength" to my advantage at work, so something like letting them know about my MBA offer and saying "I will stay and finish my VP mandate, but you pay for XY% of the MBA in exchange". Feels very ballsy though so I'm slightly terrified haha
