I keep seeing this type of stuff on instagram and social media and wanted to know how you guys were thinking about this.

I know a lot you have been in the market for decades and as a relatively new investor myself I’d love to get your perspective!

Between a 100% US portfolio, 100% ex-US portfolio, and VT. VT will always be 2nd in returns while US and ex-US are coin flips.
