Hey y'all! I have been thinking that this community could use a weekly discussion thread. Feel free to comment below with anything and everything money related that is better suited to a conversation or a quick question and answer than a full post. Some ideas include:

  • Journaling about an ongoing job search
  • Asking for ideas about how to manage an emergency fund
  • Logging recent stock trades
  • Talking about the impact of inflation on your budget
  • Your plans for maximizing the rewards on a credit card

Again, those are just suggestions, if there's really anything you'd like to talk about related to finance in your life, feel free to put it here.

Sounds like a solid plan. I link Ben Felix's videos to people a lot. As far as small cap tilt etc, the most important thing is that you're putting money into stocks consistently and letting it grow. There's a tendency to sweat the small stuff with passive investing because it feels like you should be doing something, but in reality it's a gamble that's probably only worth a few days of extra work before you retire.

I'm personally 0% bonds in the accumulation phase but everyone has their own opinions on that sort of thing. My strategy is just setting up a bond tent around retirement and ignoring bonds otherwise
