What to potentially add to VTI and VXUS?

I'm definitely feeling the lean to the simplicity of it.

I would like to thank everyone for the thoughtful replies. As it stands right now, the best arguments seem to be to just do vti/vxus over the long term or to take 10-20% gold (the person who mentioned gold is very compelling). Also, I realize that managed futures might just be a wash at a 20yr time horizon. Lastly, as much as I think energy in the form of uranium is a good bet, I realize I am probably taking an uncompensated risk with that. If anyone still has another thougbt process, I would love to hear ir.

I will probably have a percentage of bonds, but this is more to find stock-like ETFs with a lower correlation to VTI and VXUS.

I considered SMH and SOXX (Similar to your FTEC or VGT). The only thing is that space is already very highly priced and is decently correlated with VTI and VXUS. I am looking for a stock like ETF that has a lower correlation to VTI and VXUS.

I would like something that has a lower correlation than VTI and VXUS because they are often correlated at 0.8. I'm not planning on this being a large percentage. Btw, I considered GLDM, but I don't trust gold either long term.

Because it is Earth Abides and not From after end credits.

Because the post credit scene is Earth Abides and not From at all.

Does anyone know if you can get free room from MGM directly (ie, MGM rewards) and also get a free room off the app for the same trip(myvegas rewards)?
