INVESTING STRATEGY
VGS & DHHF together
Hi everyone, I’m a newbie. I’ve been reading & listening to podcast to get information. I am 38 years old old, a community social work in profession (income is not substantial) but is able to put in 1k per month on ETF. I currently have equal parts invested in both vgs & Dhhf. Would this be a sensible decision. Do you have any advise at my age & the rate I put in if there is any other etfs I could potentially invest in for growth long term betwen 7-10 years? Thanks

Hi Maria.
There’s nothing wrong with this approach, but to be clear, DHHF is designed as an ‘all in one’ portfolio. So there’s nothing that needs to be added to it for diversified mix of Aussie, global and emerging market stocks.
VGS is developed markets as David has pointed out, so this does create some overlap and isn’t really necessary.
All the best.

VGS is purely developed world international companies. DHHF has a third Australian companies and some emerging markets as well. So there is some overlap and bias to the VGS’ companies which is fair as those markets have performed slightly better (over 1 year).
