Target date funds are the quintessential “set it and forget it” fund

ACWI to get a bit more SPY and some exposure to the rest of the world.

No reason to go target date unless you are going to forget about it for 30 years.

QQQ, low fees (0.20%) and good exposure to all the tech growth stocks. ARK ETFs cost 3x more in terms of fees.

True. I have more Tesla.
