I’m 30 and have been investing at least $1,500/month into $VFV or $XEQT since Feb, feels good to see this 👍
Question, if you’re at the age of 20 would you recommend investing in dividend funds like $SCHD? or is this usually recommended when your older or is this a good ETF to put like 5% of your monthly funds into?
