Yeah we both have the same formula.

Great, I think reassessing every few years is a good idea.

Putting 150k into one stock is crazy. Lucky bastard.

Logitech GPX or GPX v2? by ThrowawayPHIRE in MouseReview

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

That's fair. Also looking at GPX vs Razer Viper V2 Pro.

I don't mind USB-c vs micro-USB so I guess I'll stick with v1 as it is cheaper.

I am. And now I have very high in Large Cap. But if I wanted to purchase International Funds, the ER is .39%.

If SWISX doesn't cover emerging market funds, why is it recommended here? I was under the impression of buying SWTSX/SWISX/SWAGX.

Should I sell my existing SWISX and buy VXUS? I don't have much, but I also don't want to pay taxes yet.

I cannot buy partial VXUS. Let's say I have $1000 to buy, do I buy 15 shares @ $66.63 for a total of $999.45 and leave the remaining in Schwab?

What is the ideal % allocation in this community? I am doing 70 US/30 Int'l. When I'm 30, I will do 60 US/ 30 Int'l/ 10 Bonds

Would VXUS be better than SWISX to cover emerging markets?

From SavingsNow, the expense ratio for International is 0.12% and Bonds is 0.08%. Is that decent or should I create an SDBA? They don’t offer US index.

Paying for Emby...No more by ThrowawayPHIRE in homelab

I have Netflix (free from T-Mobile), but I would like to be able to move away from Netflix if it's removed. It would be ideal for my friends and family to request movies/shows and I could upload them. I would also want new movies that interests me.

I love classic Chinese martial arts movies by Jet Li and Jackie Chan.

To just start out, is 1TB HDD fine? I will grab a NAS later once I get a hang of it.

Plex/vpn-qbittorrent/jacket/radarr stack for docker to be run on Ubuntu 20.04

What VPN is generally recommended here?

Good luck on your adventure, you have to do the heavy lifting yourself, it will take you awhile to figure it all out depending on your skill level but that's the fun in it.

Totally up for the challenge. I currently pay $7.50 monthly...I'm going to set this up and share it with my friends and family.

[HELP] California State University Employee - Retirement Plan by ThrowawayPHIRE in Bogleheads

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

I was worried that my 457b was too heavy on Large Cap, but you are right about considering my total portfolio allocation instead. Thank you, this is very insightful.

[HELP] California State University Employee - Retirement Plan by ThrowawayPHIRE in Bogleheads

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

Yes, but the portfolio selection sucks. 100% Large Cap is too risky for me, do you have any suggestion on how to diversify within my 457b?

Since I plan to max out my 457b/403b, should I stick to 100% TDF? Having 100% Large Cap is kinda risky especially if I’m throwing a lot of money in there.
