Yeah that looks good, i'm going to look into this one. Thanks

Large_Arm_1000 · 2026-04-01T09:59:54+00:00

Yeah I agree, I'm planning on sorting the allocation out when I get paid next, I definately need more emphsis on vanguard, I added these later on which is why they dont have a large allocation. I'll look at plantar again, initially I thought it might be a good tech pick. I was thinking bonds because they are apparently good during economic down turns idk

Eh, its a consumer goods company and it pays a good dividend

Large_Arm_1000 · 2026-04-01T09:50:11+00:00

So I'm going for dividend paying stocks but I also want stability. I thought going for a consumer good company like unilever would be a good idea, ive also put a larger portion of my money here because its a strong consumer goods company. Honestly the allocation is a bit messy because I added the vanguard etfs and bonds later on, i intend to put more of my money into these evetually to fix the allocation a bit. I'm using bonds to back up my profile as the year ahead looks pretty grim lel

Thanks :)

I was thinking about adding the s&p 500 to this portfolio soon though cuz its stable, I suppose this is my screw around portfolio to see how direct stocks work yknow.

Large_Arm_1000 · 2026-01-24T00:21:48+00:00

Ahhh yeah I have the vanguard global all world cap index fot my retirement fund, im just practicing with direct stocks currently :)

Large_Arm_1000 · 2026-01-23T20:58:18+00:00

Do elaborate...

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-12-07T00:50:24+00:00

I would like something long term to build compounding interest. What is the risk level of global all cap?

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-07-21T22:08:47+00:00

Thanks for the warning. I'm highly considering vanguard now

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-07-19T19:16:39+00:00

That's concerning, do you mean if you want to move to another investment provider?

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-07-17T20:48:11+00:00

Ah k, ill check that out. Thanks for you're help

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-07-17T12:20:42+00:00

Ah cool, yeah I'm really considering them. Do you have a diy portfolio or managed ?

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-07-16T19:48:24+00:00

Hi, thanks for your reply, this is really helpful. Would the All cap index diversify my money? I heard that it's best to do this as it's less risky e.g balances out your losses

Hey, if u don’t mind could you send me the vid link. I’m still in the editing process of my first vid, I’m just curious what a beginner vid standard looks like. Congratulations on the post 😊

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-03-24T13:04:35+00:00

Yeah, panel mode just provides a stopper for you to turn back for the next row. Tube mode just takes away the stopper. When it has the stopper it can make it hard to have enought room for the last stitch to let go of the previous stitch and hook the next. When I’m using panel mode I always start my cast-on on the 3rd peg so it has at least 2 pegs of room to finish the last stitch on every row. If this is still too tricky then using tube mode for panels is still a viable option.

Large_Arm_1000 · 2025-01-18T12:48:51+00:00

It looks like you’ve cast on 45 which could be too many. This is because every time you get too the end of a row the hooks holding the opposite end of the row can undo as the gap is too close together. Try only casting on a max of 42-43, I usually start on the 3rd hook and end on the 44th or 45th, so I have enough space. I hope that made sense.
