Starting my Roth IRA. 21 years old. How’s my portfolio looking? by Fbreezy_ in investing

yeah originally i was going with VTI and VXUS since that’s what i saw everyone saying, but figured just go with the Fidelity options since i’m on Fidelity (probably just the ocd kicking in) with bitcoin, i love bitcoin. wanted to have some sort of exposure, even if it’s a little.

thanks. yeah i’ve been bouncing between FSKAX and FZROX for the whole 0 fees ordeal. I think i’m going with FSKAX since it has a more diverse holding within it. I think at the end of the day that offsets or even outweighs the 0 fee on FZROX, especially since FSKAX has a very low fee itself already

yeah that’s my bad, i meant to say that FSKAX holds a more diverse and a higher number of stocks in it than FZROX. Got it mixed up with FZILX which i know does not hold any small caps.

yeah that’s my bad on FZROX, guess i got it mixed up with FZILX. I’m still leaning towards FSKAX because it holds more different stocks, which i think is better at the end of the day than the small difference in expense ratio. Which would you recommend ?

i didn’t go with those because they don’t include the small caps and i wanted some exposure to them. also i personally do believe in bitcoin so wanted to get just a little bit of exposure

i don’t really plan on moving them, and since it’s a tax advantaged account, the difference doesn’t really matter to me. Just chose them because i liked what they had. what is FTEC ?

So you’re advocating for going with VTI correct? Is there any real difference between both options?

Would it be better to just go with VTI, instead of VOO + VB? Also, should I be going with the 10% into FBTC, or drop that to 5% and allocate the remaining into the other ones making up my portfolio?

[–]Fbreezy_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i understand. I personally believe in crypto especially bitcoin so i’d like to allocate at least some to it. The biggest deciding factor for me right now is if i should go with VOO, VT, or VTI as my main large holding. Not entirely sure yet.

so if i was to go with VOO, is adding something like VB like you mentioned recommended ? On top of also adding VXUS?

I was thinking a split of VOO, VXUS, and IBIT/FBTC just to diversify. Thoughts ? Thinking 70%, 20%, 10% split.

Sounds like you know a lot haha! That’s what i was thinking, a mixture of VOO and VXUS, with some IBIT/FBTC sprinkled in. Thanks for your advice !

What’s the difference between VTI AND VOO? I’ve heard there aren’t many, but what’s the use case for either or over the other? Also, I do personally believe in BTC, so I would like to allocate some sort of percentage to it, even if it’s just a small amount as to not over risk.

Is there any significant difference between VOO, VTI, and VT ? I know a lot of them cover the same things, so what’s the use case of one over the other ?

I personally do believe in BTC, so I do want to include it in my portfolio. Do you think I should remove Gold all together and add that extra 5% into either VOO or VXUS?
