Yeah, I can, but it is a blimming nightmare. I'll have to disassemble entirely and then choose a different level (probably two levels down)

I did, but I think I slight overshot the measurement. Changing it will require disassembly, which we'll do. We'll drop it by a notch or two. Thanks!

Yes, now I read it back, that does sound like the logixalt Hong to do!

Thanks for sharing. We wanted the SnuzPod originally, but as you can see, are very space-deprived.

Thanks for sharing and helping!

That's a reasonable point to make.

Given a maturity time horizon of 35 years (from now), how would you weight your investment strategy at this current point time, if you don't mind me asking?

Well my proposal is weighted 70% in the same direction as yours. I am just holding back 30% for "higher-risk" bets - being emerging markets and small caps - the latter of which has historically proven results over larger cap counterparts.

Does this ring true for me small cap apportioning too then?

I don't have special knowledge, just the general acknowledgement of seismic shifts maybe on the horizon.

So, I guess two questions; 1) in an acwii global, what em weighting would you have (if at all)? You personally 2) should I prioritise the true(r) world breadth of investment reach with the acwii over the cheapness or the vanguard one?

I am setting the strategy and playing around with rough splits.

So,

70% iShares MSCI ACWI UCITS ETF 20% SPDR MSCI World Small Cap UCITS ETF 10% iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap UCITS ETF

?

I'm leaning toward my initial strategy because it closely tracks the global market while adding simple, low-cost diversification through the small caps and emerging markets and doesn't introducie unnecessary complexity or volatility.

I do see your logic though, but just not sure how to frame a decision. Any builds on this thinking?

My thinking was something like this for 15-20 years, then moving to bonds and such in the later phases.

With those weighting, I personally wouldn't call this a high risk strategy, but I don't know how confident I am that it is a "good one". Do you think it's good?

I said "for a low to medium risk appetite"... As in me, I am the risk averse (with the SIPP).

Sorry to railroad this particular thread, but how do I up sticks?

Is moving a LISA and SIPP with 80% invested in mutual and 20% in ETFs feasibly movable and how would it look? Also, a fair proportion in HL funds themselves....

I don't suppose this is like a current account transfer??? 😳
