Hello all of you Bogleheads out there!!
I've been listening to the Boglehead podcast for on and off now since last year.
I'm ready to dive into investing and was looking for strategy advice on investing
I have 100K liquid to invest at this time and want to go into low cost index funds
Was looking to stick to maybe 2 funds
1.) Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (VTSAX)
2.) Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund (VTIAX)
The advice I'm seeking is that when to invest and how much per fund
I'm used to putting a set amount in my 401K or stocks month over month
Which takes advantage of cost averaging and not timing the market
I'm worried about the volatility of the market now and putting all 100K in at one time
Was thinking maybe putting in 10K per month for the next 10 months
In the meantime keeping it in a high yield money market I have at ~ 4.5%
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
I'm looking forward to any posts/advice/information you may have
I understand all the risk is mine but also enjoy being part of a community
