If you’re holding, consider adding QQQM vs QQQ for a slight fee advantage

QQQM launched last Oct so it hasn’t even been a year. YTD matches more closely

Looks pretty good! Maybe a little overlap with VUG and QQQ and I’d just pick QQQ if you wanted that weighting. Also if this is in a taxable account I wouldn’t hold VYM or FALN to avoid dividend taxes.

It is a best practice to hold high dividend paying equities and bonds in a tax sheltered account so you don’t have to pay the tax on the high dividend payments. So, put these types of investments in your 401k, IRA, or HSA, but not in your taxable brokerage

I think living a frugal life and aiming to retire early makes a lot of sense.
