I’m new to investing. Is it worth holding lVV with around 500 companies and VTS with around 3800 companies. I’m thinking lm getting more overall market share, to invest in with large cap to small cap companies, spreading my risk. Cheers, Paul

Probably the dumbest question, but how do you invest in ASX 200. I put it in the search bar and it has come up with A200 is this the same thing??

I’ve just started my investment journey in my early 20’s looking to work into a long term investment portfolio. I was just wondering opinions on my current focus to see if this covers decent diversification. I currently am investing into VAS at 25%, IVV at 35%, IJH at 15% and VGS at 25%. Please and thank you

Hi everyone, I am wanting to start investing and am not quite sure where to start. I only have small amounts to invest at the moment/its what I am comfortable putting in given I am still learning ($20 a fortnight). How do I start though as when I click on an ETF it says the minimum buy is $500. Do I need $500 to just start investing? I would like to make sure it is diversified though. Any help for this newbie would be great! Thank you!

I am very new to investing. I began with the long term in mind - passive income, retirement etc. and all my reading has been focussed on that. What investment strategies would you recommend for a 3 to 5 year goal - such as for buying a car, future home renovations etc. If there are good resources, you recommend I read - I am most happy to do that as well.

Hi Pearlers, Does anyone have much experience with diversified investment/insurance bonds such as Generation Life’s Vanguard high growth portfolio? I just want to understand the pros and cons associated with investing and through this mechanism rather than say directly through VDHG ETF. I understand that with investment bonds that you only pay a flat 30% tax rate and no capital gains if held for 10 years. I’ve heard something about being able to offset capital losses but don’t quite understand. Also, I’m concerned that the fees negate the potential tax benefits. Any information would be great appreciated!! ☺️

Hey investors ! New starter here. I wanted to ask about the Dividends. I know these can be reinvested. But how do you set up these to also just go back into your account to then choose to reinvest. Is this automatic. Pretty much seeing tha positive line come into your bank account, to then choose to put it back in. Or will you just see the variance in the ETF. I currently have Shares, and they just sit there with no funds going into the account. Is this the same thing? How do you eventually turn this into coming into the account when you get enough time and money going into it.

I started investing in 2019, not long before Covid-19 impacted the sharemarket. As noted in one of the first pearler podcasts, this has impacted my psychology of money in a negative way, as I straightaway saw my investments fall in price. I had bought LICs with the Magellan Financial Group, namely MFF, MGG and MGE. Luckily (in a way), I sold these as soon as I broke even. From my very basic understanding, the Magellan Financial Group had made some poorly timed investments such as Netflix, Meta and Alibaba and they have not been able to recover. See: https://www.fool.com.au/2022/03/17/down-80-whats-gone-so-wrong-for-magellan-asxmfg-shares/ I am a relatively new member here but from what I've gathered in this community, it seems wise to be putting a major portion of one's savings into Vanguard - VAS, VGS, VDHG. What's the likelihood of Vanguard - or iShares or ARG for that matter - following in the same footsteps as Magellan? Apparently, Magellan was one of the leaders in the field "As of June 2022, Magellan's industry award-winning team of 35 investment professionals are responsible for managing over AU$60-billion in stocks (as of July 2022)" See: https://marketmatters.com.au/company/magellan-financial-group-mfg/#:~:text=As%20of%20June%202022%2C%20Magellan's,(as%20of%20July%202022). I haven't compared the size of their portfolios, but I'm assuming the other companies survived because they were more diverse with their investments. If we reach FIRE and therefore end up with $300k invested in ARG (and the rest of the million spread between Vanguard and iShares), for example, should we fear such a collapse happening with one of these investment companies? Thank you!

Hi All, Iv started this year investing into etfs and have been learning about all there is to know about etfs and the stockmarket and have been really keen and interested and still learning (Rask and pearler podcasts and selfwealth videos have been wonderful). After having an IP for over 10 years, sold it and payed down the mortgage, I'm keen to look at other investing options now(working towards FI) and have always been keen to invest in the sharemarket. Currently in late 30s with young family and a mortgage that were also focused on paying off. Currently invested into Vgs and Vas using DCA.However I'm looking for further reducing risk as well as additional diversification into other asset classes both in Aus and overseas by adding additional etfs for the time being. Is anyone looking or been using femx or vge, keen to know your thoughts and also looking into Reits for growth and hopefully some income. I understand everyone has their own investment strategy,risk tolerance and path based on their own situations so was just wondering people's thoughts? Just wanting to keep things simple so looking currently at a 3-4 ETF/managed fund portfolio that I can keep DCA into for the next 10 years and onwards. Much appreciated
