That’s simple VOO (S&P 500), VHT (Vanguard Healthcare) and VTI (Total Market Index). I spent 24+ years on Wall Street managing primarily institutional assets after law school and have done 1000’s of hours of analysis on what works to create wealth without drama, has simplicity and will be easy for my family to manage if I am no longer looking at the right side of the daisies. Best of luck on your journey

Avantis All Equity Markets Value ETF (AVGV). It’s a fund of funds with a 60/40 US/Int’l and value tilt. Perfect one-fund portfolio for me with auto rebalancing. Couldn’t be any simpler.
