I’m an LA-born-and raised gal who went to school in Chicago, had an apt in SoMA area of SF, and is now living in greater NYC. Chicago all the way. When you’re young, NYC is fine, but I would not recommend NYC if you want to have a family and be stable.

Chicago. Way more affordable, way cleaner and way nicer people

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.
