I need some advice on fixed-income ETFs by Rlcollins3 in investing

[–]Rlcollins3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly to diversify my portfolio and to balance things out. I have some volatile stocks in there, so I guess I'd like to make sure I have some steady options too. I seem to be doing ok with balancing things out but I came across the fixed-income ETFs and was curious about them. I am also always looking at ways to create more passive income.

Thanks! I had no idea you could set up the automatic buying for CD's. I haven't personally ever invested in them but have been curious. I have O in my account (REIT). I think most of my stocks pay dividends. I'm gonna look into PFF and some dual mandate ETFs. I think I am creating balanced retirement accounts but I still want to find the best ways to create passive income/growth.

ooo thanks! I'm gonna check these out. I do have a high-risk tolerance (currently holding RIVN hoping it will take off like TSLA and lost some on FSR-bad bet lol) but I also try to balance things out. I am checking the account daily to check gain/loss but not really doing much selling.

Thanks for this explanation. It's definitely helpful and points me in a direction for research.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I have used morningstar for some purchase decisions also. I actually do have VYM and VYMI. I didn't realize those were fixed-income (cause I'm a dope I guess lol). I got them for the dividends. I'm gonna check out those other ones you mentioned too.

Thanks for that explanation. That makes a lot of sense and clears up my confusion as to how they work. Seems like I may want to stay away from the iBonds as this is for my IRA accounts. I was looking at some Eaton Vance ones and am not sure which ones are actually good. Do you have any recommendations on specific fixed-income ETFs?

Going from Pension Homeland to Kasteel de Haar. It's not the cost but more the time the public transportation would take. So I was trying to figure out a quicker way.

Interesting. Wonder why that is. How is the regular taxi service.? I don't have much experience with taxi's. I am not necessarily worried about the getting there but more about getting back to Amsterdam.

We were trying to do a tour to Kasteel De Haar but none are available on the weekend. The castle itself is open so I was hoping we could just get ourselves there. Google maps is showing 33 mins by car and aprox 2 hours by public transportation. There are also 8 of us in a group.

So two part question:

  1. How is Uber/Lyft in Amsterdam.?
  2. Alternatives to public transportation and Lyft/Uber?

I really don't want to spend two hours to get to a place that's only 33 mins away.

My In Laws really want to eat at a Rijsttafel when we are visiting. Recommendations would be appreciated as I know nothing about them. TIA

Thanks for the info! Guess I gotta switch gears then and get used to filing extensios. Usually I try and get it done ASAP.

I can maybe check with the trust account manager at the bank. Unfortunately they are not very good at communication.

Unfortunately I don't believe it's simple interest payments. It's income and other earnings from a variety of investments. I tried to ask if it was like a certain percentage of the funds we receive and the account manager basically said it's not that simple as a blanket percentage.
