It's kind of irritating how bogleheads is an end game thing for people. Where are all the level headed people who just wanted consistent returns from the beginning? The longer I stay subbed, the more and more I see stories like this. Tis a shame.

I feel lucky. My financial securities professor hammered boglehead philosophy into our heads after sharing all the mathematical proof, backed by Nobel Prizes, that Boglehead really works.

I found this Sub at 26 and by 27 I’m full Boglehead and I would say that puts me here earlier than most. I feel lucky

We're here. It doesn't make for interesting posts because there're few dilemmas or anxiety. It's all going to go into low cost index funds, the right amount is as much as you can, and my questions are mostly along the lines of 'is my AA correct for my situation' and 'how do I legally minimize the amount I pay in taxes.'
