Hi,
We're married, 33 and 30, with two kids (and another on the way). We've been slowly investing in a Roth IRA with Betterment at 100% stocks, and just bumped over $3k. I'm considering a move to Vanguard directly, and investing this in the Total Stock Market (VTSMX) fund.
I won't have to pay Betterment's fees (0.035%) but I lose some of the diversification. Also, I don't have anything invested in Bonds right now.
We're investing 10% of my net pay every month, but I work for commission so some months are dramatically better than others.
We also have a traditional 401k (S&P 500 index fund) that I invest 5% before taxes, plus another four points from my employer.
We'll eventually increase our savings even more, but for now I want to make sure we're putting our money in the best place for long term growth. Should we roll this over to Vanguard? Is there a better strategy that I don't see?
Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
