Hello investors, I just started investing in some ETFs. The goal is to live off ETF dividends while adding growth ETFs. Any beginner strategy to start with? This is my portfolio, and I am very excited to start my journey to retire early. Please give me advice and experiences; I am willing to absorb them.

The goal is to live off ETF dividends while adding growth ETFs. Is the goal to live off dividends at some point or while you're saving? Because retiring early would probably be best done via just re-investing all dividends as you grow.

This is basically all into Tech and Ai. Way too concentrated on that sector and can be harmful in a crash. It can work if you hold. Sure these are good ETFs but I’d be concerned because a crash like Dot Com can lose your holds value significantly. If it drops like Dot Com you’d be looking at over a decade of recovery let along inflation. The bigger the growth the bigger the fall as they say. Most stocks will suffer in a crash but Tech is the most volatile sector. Volatility means higher highs and lower lows.

I see you have some valuable responses including one from Kar. Keep in mind that the vast majority of people on here are not financial advisor including myself. We love investing and finance. In your case as Kar pointed out more information about your situation is required. How old are you Aka time horizon. What is your risk tolerance. Why do you need income. What I do know from my 3 years of investing is that there are many ways to reach your goal. But broad base ETFs over the long term is a good path. Not the only one but a good one. Love that you’re in here asking questions.

It's extremely tech heavy, as a younger investor I did the same thing. It depends on age, timeline, appetite for risk. I do like the $QQQ and $QQQI combo. I also like the single stock satellite approach as well to add some kick. I am anxious to see what others have to say.

Good luck on the new journey! Curious to see what the experts say on this. I'm fairly new as well
