Ah no these are in my Roth. In my 401k I just hold a vanguard target date fund, pretty much the same.

The 3 fund portfolio is a total us market, a total international market and a total bond. If people are using a 3 fund portfolio. The funds should be essentially the same. There is really no difference between VTI and ITOT and FZROX for example.

Confused about long term capital gains tax rate - are the brackets for how much capital gains you make in a year, or are the buckets determined by income?

Ie. If my income is over 40k do I pay 15%? Or do I only pay 15% if I realize >$40,000 in long term gains in a year?

Hi all, I am trying to DCA bi-weekly into Vanguard ETFs, (VO, VTI etc). It seems like Fidelity does not support auto buying of non-Fidelity ETFs. So I was wondering which of these options you think is best?

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.
