I am comfortable with people.
If you don't like investing in individual stocks, just picking a broad market ETF like that
can get the job done.
But not all ETFs are like that.
Some ETFs are more concentrated.
I know one popular ETF that concentrates on South Korean stocks.
It really has two positions.
Two positions make up half of the entire portfolio.
So to me, that's not a diversified portfolio.
That ETF counts really closer to just like two stocks for me.
And so you kind of have to look at the holdings and make a judgment call.
That's a really smart thing to do because these days, even big market ETFs are more concentrated than they were in the past.
And so getting some kind of tool that gives you that x-ray, gives you that look through can be really valuable.
The other thing I'll just point out is you talk about having had a modest lifestyle throughout your career.
And if you are comfortable, if you don't have aspirations to spend a whole bunch of extra money, then you might be in a position you're totally comfortable maintaining that lifestyle.
You're not necessarily looking to spend a whole bunch more money.
But here's the thing that you might consider.
Try out some upgrades.
If you stay at a certain type of hotel, consider moving to the next upgrade up.
If you routinely fly coach, then consider trying a business class flight.
