The Seed has been Planted

Be careful with the balancing though, I know it's just the beginning and the weight of a single stock can change dramatically with just one buy, but you've got about 60% of your portfolio in two REITs. I like REITs too but too much is too much. Weird share amounts so I'm guessing you've got a DRIP on them, so I'd suggest throwing your new cash to other types of investments for a while to keep the balance.


You are correct sir,  I wanted to open some positions on the REITs,  and did so in my IRA by accumulating my monthly amounts until I could purchase a large amount to minimize the $7.00 commission that Vanguard charges me.  I'm letting them DRIP for now as the only other items in the IRA are the Index funds I hold to keep my wife sane while I started this DGI plan.

Future investments will be in my taxable Robinhood account with the zero commissions where I can make smaller purchases at a time while avoiding the commission hits.  I have quite the buy list at this time to continue spreading my diversity, Thanks for the advice.
