I’ve used it for a couple years and really enjoy it. I’m pretty passive in my management so it pays way more attention than I would. I think it likely keeps more in cash than I would chose, but sacrifice I’m willing to make to be mindless about it.

Only thing to know is you can’t quickly pull money out. It’s a few days for it to react to requests to change. So if you’re not comfortable with riding big ups and downs without control, don’t bother.

Can’t speak to BDIP.

I'm a Canadian on the TN visa working in the US and planning on maxing my Roth IRA (6k) and will have enough left to max my 401k this year, but am not sure if I should just use a taxable account over 401k due to tax considerations when I move back to Canada (likely 1-2 years from now). Any thoughts here? I don't think I'll have enough RRSP room to move 401k>IRA>RRSP and I would prefer to not have to file US taxes every year in retirement for withdrawls if I left the 401k in the US.
