We are moving our funds from an independent investor to Vanguard to take control of our retirement.
Suggestions on how to divide and earn-
We have $70 in a joint account.
10% VCIT
54% Dividend stocks such as Walgreens, J&J & Paychex
35% he left in cash for too long This I want to invest in VTSAX-growth dividends.
Two IRA's similar-
$77K - 33% in cash balance in Lockheed, WM, Gen Mills etc
33% cash to VDIGX growth stocks
$47K -35% cash
Same stocks as above
Cash to VDGIX or VTSAX
$10K additional cash sending to Vanguard- same question. Personal Capital suggests we have too much cash sitting and not enough international. My husband will have a nice sized pension if Illinois doesn't screw it up.
I have a 401K w $350K.
