VXUS
Vanguard Total International Stock ETF
stock NASDAQ ETF

No, VOO is like black and VXUS is like red and holding the right amount of both is like making it so the green 0s somehow make your win too.

I have a little bit of ESGV and GRID. However, in my opinion, ESG investing is honestly just marketing. For example, Tesla is in both of those ETFs. Amazon is in ESGV. I would consider both of those to be highly unethical companies whose consumer goods I would never actively choose to purchase. So at the end of the day, the bulk of my portfolio is still the regular VTI/VXUS. If anything, it's made my portfolio less ethical because now those companies are overweighted.

80% VTI Total U.S Market
20% VXUS International Market
Set it and let compound interest do the rest.

Invest in index funds (low cost) only. Total US and total intl is what you want. You can use Schwab funds, or ETFs (VTI and VXUS are Vanguard ETFs covering those that are commonly suggested).

VT is fine, except for the sector concentration problem. I include VXUS not only for international exposure, but also to prevent 30 percent of my portfolio being made up of the Mag 7.

At least you recognize this behavior within yourself. I applaud you for knowing that exposure to social media and news gives you jitters and affects your strategy. That's very normal and very human. And the fact that you're trying to not let that sway you going forward is exactly what you should be doing.

That's much better than many here who insist that they somehow know better than everyone else, despite only choosing to invest in VT or VXUS after recent outperformance. As soon as something changes the other direction globally, they'll rotate out of VT/VXUS. It's so frustrating to witness. This sub has become the exact opposite of what it was supposed to be.

Investing for the long term is simple, but not easy. It's much more about psychology than it is numbers. You have to do what works for you and what you can stick with. Flip-flopping whenever the narrative changes will eat away at your gains more than paying an advisor to guide you through turbulent times ever would.

This year of VXUS outperforming VTI hit us so hard that even JL Collins shifted his philosophy. Just goes to show even the most seasoned gurus can change their minds when the winds start blowing a certain way. Luckily for me, I’ve always agreed with the Vanguard staff’s current philosophy to diversify internationally for stocks and bonds and decided to use their TDF or match its portfolio composition. JL Collins also shared this article that I find compelling.

So you're aiming for a 1.4-1.8% yield, which is very doable. SCHD is a staple. It generates a good dividend and dividend appreciation is one of its selling points. Covered calls are another way. You can either do it yourself, or buy into a fund. Just pick a fund from a reputable institution (in sure there's one in Europe as well). You could also buy into the index that VXUS follows which pays 3% right now. And of course bonds. I'm not sure what Brazilian yields are like, but European bonds might be a better choice

Most Boglehead investors don’t make their portfolio decisions based on “news” events. They choose low cost index funds like VTI and VXUS that give them the most equity diversification and they set it and forget it and just keep contributing to it allowing compound interest to do its magic over the years.

US stocks represent over 60% of VT by weight, and still have the same issue with concentration. Nowhere near enough diversification. I’d much rather own the equal-weight S&P 500 (RSP) and significant positions in VXUS and a global value ETF like AVGV. Sample portfolio with far more diversification than VT:
VXUS: 40%
RSP: 40%
AVGV: 20%

I have Schwab which doesn’t allow auto-purchasing of non-Schwab funds (annoyingly) so I have to manually buy VOO, VXUS etc. Those of you who DCA manually - do you strictly buy on a specific day (e.g., every other Monday) regardless of price, or do you monitor and try to do it within a period (e.g., at some point during a 2 week window)?

Uh no, s&p500 has been lagging international stocks since Trump took office again and started trying to strangle the economy with his tiny little hands.

Amazing you're on a forum called wallstreetbets and don't know how to check this for yourself, but here ya go. 

Thanks, this is a good and timely perspective where you look at it as advice or just additional data in the decision process. I've been 20% international for 40 years and am thinking about adding in some VXUS to increase that. Your post makes good points for consideration

SP 500 index funds were forced to be legally reclassified due to their lack of diversity. VXUS now means meaningful diversification that VOO lacks. VTI helps a bit compared to VOO but only VXUS can provide meaningful diversification and diversification is the only free lunch.

When I first learned about the Bogleheads many years ago, I wondered how much international I should hold. I ended up on about 15%, and I'm sticking with it.
The thing is, if you compare VTI vs. VT from 2010 to now, VTI is still ahead by about 3.5%. So, if you wanted to reap the 30ish % gain VXUS made over the past year, you would have had to timed the market perfectly. -- Good luck.
I'm sticking with my 15% allocation because changing it would feel reactionary and like "timing the market."
Also, I feel this whole EXUS thing is based on emotion and what social media wants you to believe.
Everything I see on Reddit, YouTube, News, etc, is headlines like, "It's happening," "The collapse has started," "Debasement is starting, "and blah blah blah blah"
Makes you wonder if all this EXUS stuff is based on FUD, and it's only up because of people's emotions.

VEA or SCHF if you don’t want EM included.
VEU if you want EM included at market weight. Even though performance is virtually identical to VXUS I prefer it because it omits small caps. I don’t trust that small caps in EMs are audited and for shareholders to get their fair share. In fact, I don’t think that’s true for large caps either which is why I largely buy VEA aside from a small bit of EM exposure with some VT.
I am a big fan of VTI/VEA and would recommend a 60/40 DCA on automatic investment to anyone

That was me 10+ years ago. Now VTI and VXUS and chill

Omg… I just realized I was putting VUSXX instead of VXUS… sorry I meant VXUS.

Don’t agree with some advice already given. Stay away from crypto. It’s risky and you’re young, so you want something that will grow and compound long term. Your risk should be in growth ETFS. Crypto should be a small
Portion of your portfolio if you are interested, not your main investment. Also don’t get an advisor. It will cost you like 1% and that will hurt your growth long term. You don’t need it yet as they won’t do anything for you that you can’t do yourself.
Do you work at all currently while in school? If so, open a ROTH IRA and max it out. If you don’t work, open a brokerage account (although I’m assuming you have some sort of income to fund these accounts). Open via a brokerage firm like fidelity or vanguard, etc (I use fidelity personally). Make consistent monthly contributions to DCA into low cost ETFs. Some common ones I use are VOO for s&p500, QQQM for nasdaq 100, VXUS for international. At your age you could even just VT (total world market) or VTI (total US market) and never look at it.
I know I threw a lot of info at you, so ask any questions you might have

How would I? The same way I already invest in my portfolio, the amount doesn't change anything for me.
40% VTI - Total US Market
20% VBR - Small-Cap Value
10% BND - Total US Bond Market
15% GLDM - Gold
15% - DBMF - Managed Futures
(20% relative rebalancing bands, 40% band on DBMF)
There's an argument for adding international exposure like cutting VTI and VBR to incorporate VXUS and AVDV but I'm ok without. There are also those who are happy to pay the higher ER for AVUV instead of VBR for better quality and size filtering and possibly higher expected future returns.
Should YOU invest like this? Probably not, as most investors will likely make emotional decisions and shoot themselves in the foot when holding uncorrelated and sometimes volatile assets that can lag for many years before showing proving value.
