Hey Mustachians,
I'm super set on becoming FI. However, I am anxious about whether or not I'm starting out the right way.
I'm currently investing $3,000 per month of my paycheck into Betterment (I started two months ago). I also added some funds I already had - approximately, $5,000. So I have around $11,000 at this moment.
My first concern is - should I have my money in Betterment or Vanguard? Any other advice?
Assumptions:
- My goal is to become financially independent ASAP.
- I'm 26
- I'm British with a nonimmigrant visa.
- I'm planning to head back to the UK (hopefully after I become FI).
- I'd like to reach around a 40k annual return on my investments.
- I have no rent (company paid) and I cycle to work.
Advice would be fantastic.
Cheers!
Chris
