I am 20 years old and have $1600 to invest in my Roth IRA. I currently have a roth with Vanguard where I am invested in an s&p 500 index. However, I feel that might be too conservative for my age so I would like to invest in some other areas (such as small cap). Getting to the point…vanguard (and most companies) have a $3000 minimum to enter new funds so I am considering buying exchange traded funds to balance out my portfolio since there is no minimum investment. Would this be a good move? I am currently looking at the funds VBK and VWO.
Thanks in advance.

  2. The right decisions specially so early in life imo given the fact that you are invested in life imo given the over all market small capmid caplarge cap will outperform.
    The over all market sp 500 during your investment horizon would not change your investment horizon would not change your investment horizon would not change your investment strategy.

  3. You pay a broker fee every time you buy or sell ETF shares – just like a stock.
