What Does Your Investment Portfolio Look Like?

The Digerati Life is fielding a money question this week.

What Does Your Investment Portfolio Look Like?

Here’s what I had to say about that:

I frequently contribute to a target retirement fund made up of a bunch of index funds. I do have a grand in the Bruce Fund but I mostly stick to low-cost index funds. I’m saving up for a house so that’s why I have a larger than usual cash position.

My assets should be mostly stocks since I’m fairly young and my risk tolerance is higher. My ideal portfolio would be 90% stocks (small cap, mid cap, large cap, and international index funds) and the rest short-term cash reserves.

Yup. Not much investment detail there. Here’s a shotgun summary of what I hold: Vanguard Target Retirement 2045 Fund (VTIVX), The Bruce Fund (BRUFX), Aggressive Asset Allocation Fund (Some fund available through my 401(k)), and my company’s stock fund. I haven’t been tracking performance too closely since I don’t have a significant amount of money invested.

I was pleasantly surprised to see how much my investments have grown. Horray for automatic investments. Visit The Digerati Life and leave a comment on what your portfolio looks like.
