My question is; in keeping with Bogle's philosophy, why not just keep it simple and invest in Vanguard's low cost total USA index fund (VTI) has over 2,000 different stocks for USA equity exposure and for international equities, invest in low cost all world xUSA (VEU)...also has thousands of stocks? Therefore with these 2 ETFs, you have instant total diversification on a global basis. question: we all know john bogle’s position on investing in broad based index funds and holding for the long term.
