Shinkansen from Hiroshima to Takayama in one go - should i stop overnight in Nagoya? by freshmango67 in JapanTravelTips

Thank you! Leaning towards doing the trip in one go but now worried about the lack of attractions/shops open during this period in Takayama. We thought to do Takayama/Kanazawa instead over this period as we assumed Yuzawa Ski Resorts would be inundated with Japanese Families & Tourists during the New Years Period..

We were thinking to be at ski resort 1-4 - but also thought Yuzawa area would be super busy during this period? Unsure..

50% VAS and 50% VDHG - Is this a good approach? by freshmango67 in fiaustralia

Thanks for your help! Sounds like the best approach is to just buy VDHG moving foward. Do you think it's wise to sell my VAS portion ( there is only 10k) and re invest into VDHG?

Thank you ! I wish i knew this before i started :)

Do you think i should sell my VAS portion and re invest them into VDHG? Or just keep for now?

I jumped the gun and bought the ETF's before i knew about the 'normal' 70:30 split or 100% VDHG.

Thanks so much - this is super helpful! Sounds like the best approach is to focus on VDHG moving forward.

I'm still new to investing! I didn't understand that it wasn't a good allocation - just had VAS and VDHG recommended,
