I think you missed three facts that I keep trying to hammer home.

  1. I genuinely don't care enough to do research and spend time watching the markets. I'm fortunate to have more money than time these days so $750 is worth vastly less than me doing it myself.
  2. It's safer. This is a huge % of my life savings were talking about. I don't trust myself to do it.
  3. I don't care. At all. In any capacity.

It’s safer. This is a huge % of my life savings were talking about. I don’t trust myself to do it.

I can understand it, and respect your decision. At that point when we're talking about such amounts, it's better to offload this mental stress to a reputable company, even if it means a bit lower interest rates

The main thing to get out of this is that you're investing and frankly, it's pretty much all that matter

Thank you. You are the first person to actually understand what I am trying to say.

I experienced something kind of similar I guess. When I learned about this I was excited, but even though everything seems fine, there's still this part of me that is like "what if I'm forgetting or fucking up something? I don't want to lose my money, that's a lot"
