Even though it may not feel like it right now, we are getting an incredible opportunity in this market, especially with this four-week sell-off that we have been seeing. I'm going to show you guys what ETFs, what stocks, how I'm deploying my capital right now in this extremely volatile market, guys. And also, if you drop a comment down below, you also get the full ebook that will be covering over in today's video that covers a lot of different asset classes that I'm putting my money in. And obviously, I'm not a financial advisor, guys. I'm just documenting my journey and what I'm investing my money in. But guys, let's just be real. It was a rough week out here, folks. It was. But the thing is, you know, guys, it's creating a huge opportunity for us. Let's just be real. Big, big, big thing that happened though. The biggest one of them all. And I didn't see, you know, there was definitely some chatter about it, but this is a massive one.

2:04Is that spy has now crossed below? It's 200 day moving average, okay? So taking a look at some key moving averages, obviously we closed that 648 200 day moving average of 660. We have now blown below this, okay, trading at 648. Next stop is the 300 day moving average. A lot of people have asked me, P, or do you think we're going to hit that? I do. I do actually think we're going to touch the 300 day moving average. And I'm not too worried about it though, okay? Now, if you are picking individual stocks right now, there is some a lot more elevated risk. My kind of where I'm kind of moving a lot more money around is into a couple different ETFs that I'm focusing in on. So let's kind of dive in. I want to show you guys at least what I'm focusing in on, right? So these are boring, right? But I'm going to be taking advantage of this by the dip opportunity as a form of accumulation. If you've watched some of my videos over the past week, you know, I've been talking a lot about spy and QQQ, right? And a lot of income focused ETFs. That's where I'm parking a lot of cash. And that's what I'm going to continue doing.

3:05But a lot of this stuff I did not cover and I want to quickly show you guys because this is kind of the my structure, at least for my Roth side of how I've structured my Vanguard funds. And I buy every single week. I don't do the lump something. I know there's arguments to be had. And you know, I'm glad I didn't do the lump sum at the start of the year, right? Because now I'm going to take advantage of it. So basically, whatever it comes out to like $153 a week, they can invest in a Roth IRA to max out your contributions. Basically, every Monday, I buy my buying holds. Every single week, I'm buying this stuff that I'm sharing with you right now for the most run, unless I actress it and tell you otherwise, this is what I do on a weekly basis. So every Monday, I'm buying the bulk is VTI, about $80 of the $150 roughly. I'm buying primarily VTI. And this is basically, you know, owning every large publicly traded US company, right? You got large cap mid cap, you got small cap funds in here. And this is really giving me the broadest exposure possible in the US economy. And obviously, a very, very low cost. I personally like VTI. I do have some, I do have a set

4:05IRA as well. I'm not going to talk about that much in this video where I do my view and chill kind of thing where it's like, it's like a couple, like $500 a month and just goes into a vufon. I don't touch it. I don't care about it. Same with 401k goes right in. Contributions happen. I don't care. I literally don't even count that. It's like, it's so out of my, I don't actively mess with that stuff at all. It's just like set forget and whatever, right? But the stuff I'm talking about today is a little bit more in depth, okay? That I actually do. Next one, obviously is VXUS. If you guys don't know that, right? This covers basically gives me exposure to everything outside of the, the USA, Europe, Asia, obviously emerging markets as well. And this just gives me that diversification. Right? You're going to see that I believe and comment below. I listen. I am always here to learn as well. I learned so much from you guys in our whole community. I don't know everything. And I'm here to learn myself. So if you're saying, Hey, Pete, you're missing something out in your Vanguard portfolio, you know, let me know. I would love to love to hear it. But these are these five funds

5:05is what I'm doing every single week, right? Obviously, international gives me that international exposure. My next one is big, okay? This one's slightly, I guess, controversial. You know, this gives me that dividend appreciation, right? And these are basically companies that have basically given it grown their dividends over the last 10 years. You guys know as a dividend investor, somebody I like selling options, generating income and kind of being that income investor, I do like to layer a little bit here. Now, again, a bulk of my capital does go into VTI and then VXUS. And then the rest, I kind of spread across the next three that I share with you, okay? But big, I like this. It's kind of, you know, it gives me that, that, you know, gives me that income that I want from a, you know, dividend perspective allows me to kind of grow it a little bit faster. And I just, I just love dividends personally as well. And then they're also screen. So similar to like an SCHD, right? They're not just, oh, who gives us the best yield? That's not how it works, right? There's a strict screening process that these, you know, dividend ETFs,

6:06you know, go through to qualify for, all right? So big, obviously, next one is VYM. I know, another high, high yield dividend ETF. But this one is a little bit more aggressive. That's why this is not a large play for me. The vague V, VYM or not. But these are giving me a little bit more of a higher yield, okay? They're usually above average dividends. Obviously giving me more income today versus vague, which prioritizes dividend growth over time. But I like having a mixture of them both. And then I do reinvest all of these dividends back into the same ETF as well, just FYI. And then my last one is VPU. Not often talked about, but I've always put a little bit of money in VPU because it's basically there, it is, it's a, it's a, it's a little utility. It's not basic. It's a utility ETF. And my reasoning for this is, let's say, recession, whatever happens, like any crazy madness in the world that happens, we always are going to need utilities, right? This thing doesn't move that crazy, obviously, but it's like a safe haven, right? And that's when

7:09I structured this Vanguard portfolio for myself, that's kind of how I thought through this. And I felt like this. And again, I would love to hear in the comments. Am I wrong? And if you drop that comment down below, also give you this full ebook as well. And if you join this sort of content so far, obviously hitting the like button and subscribe button is appreciated. But this obviously electric gas water, big defensive play in the portfolio here. But those are the five. Those are the big five Vanguard funds that I'm primarily investing in in my Roth IRA every single, every single Monday morning, basically. I literally go in there. I distribute it. I like to do it manually, personally, I just do. I do. That's me. I don't know if that's just me, but it is. All right, next one. All right. We quickly just talk about it. You know, Spy, QQQ, every single, every single week, I'm buying basically a couple hundred dollars worth of Spy and QQ more of these past two weeks. I basically been buying Spy and QQQ. Oh, man, and yes, and SHD. I was like, oh, I don't think I have this in here. So basically Spy and QQQ, I'm buying every single week. Spy, obviously,

8:10tracks the S&P 500 QQQ NASDAQ, right? And the reason I picked Spy and QQQ because I have a plan, I don't, if you don't, if you wouldn't look, the reason I'm doing Spy and QQQ might not be the reason you would want to do it, I'm doing Spy and QQQ because in the future, I want to be able to sell very far out of the money covered calls to generate in a weekly income. I've showed this a bunch on this channel. Let me quickly show you what I mean. So let's say like 10 years from now, you know, I've accumulated thousands, about thousands of shares of Spy and QQQ. Basically, I want to be able to come here. I want to sell a call every single week or let's just say every like two weeks or whatever, just about, let's see, can we populate something here? And then I'm basically going to be saying I'm willing to sell my hundred shares of Spy's for a certain price, but I'm going to go so far out of the money, right? Like I'll be collecting very little premium, like return on collateral wise, but I'll be collecting some premium. So for example, if I like that the, you know, let's just look at a, you know, a rounder number six seventy five, I'd

9:10collect $200 of premium income for one contract here, which one contract is equal to 100 shares. So more on that in the arc options workshop, if you want to learn more about selling options, the wheel strategy, how I plan to generate income during my retirement, and I'm generating income now from individual stocks and these ETFs, click the first link in the description, you'll get all these premium calculators and all these free resources that I'm talking about. That'll be the first link, but that's my plan. See, most people that invest in Spy and QQQ, if you're just a buyer and holder, it doesn't really make sense because you have to deal with their hot nominal, but it's still, it's still a little bit of a higher expense ratio. There are better options pun intended for then spy and QQQ out there. If you're just a buy and holder, right, you could just like do the voodoo and chill thing, right? There's a tons of other, you know, ETFs that you can invest in, but for me, I have a plan with this. Okay, I literally have a plan, right? You should probably have a plan as well unless you just are a buy and holder, which is perfectly fine. That's still a plan. That's your buy and hold. Just don't just don't stop buying and holding, right? That's that's the big, you know, the compounding effect of this. So Spy, QQQ, big ones for me, for future income generation

10:15during my retirement, for my retirement income. Right now, I'm not selling any calls or anything against my shares. I'm not. I'm simply just in accumulation phase, especially where we're with that right now. I mean, let's just be real. Spy can recover in a matter of a couple days, you know, who knows? We'll see what happens. Next big one for me is SCHD. So I am also now buying a hundred, a hundred dollars about worth of SCHD, a little bit more every, every single week, right? So every single Monday as well, I'm about literally buying all this again, a little bit more this week because of the dip. I'm going to take advantage of bigger dips. SCHD not so much of a, so much dips recently, but the reason I like these again, high, high, they're basically the highest quality dividend paying stocks, right? They're just not these high yielders, right? So the reason a lot of people love to invest in SCHD, they think they can retire off SCHD, but it's ridiculous. I think that's absolutely ridiculous for you to think that you will make enough income that you'll need to, you'll literally make like 50 grand a year off like a two million dollar

11:19port. Like that's insane, right? It's still nice. Don't get me wrong, but you need to have a plan, right? So for me with SCHD, I'm a cumulative, I'm getting dividends, I'm compounding that growth, I'm snowballing it, but I'm also going to layer on my, my covered calls as well on top of my SCHD, that way I'm kind of getting two, I'm getting two dividends every single month on the same shares, but I do love this. I'm a very big dividend investor as you know, I love dividends, I love selling options, I love kind of being that income investor. So the SCHD, I think that's a foundation for anybody's portfolio that wants to be able to generate income and not hurt their principal in the future, right? So my hope is obviously to have tens of millions of dollars by the time I retire that none of this is really honestly going to matter at that point for me, because I'll be able to make enough passive income, a couple hundred thousand dollars a year will be very, very happy with, okay? But I never want to touch my actual shares, right? I don't ever want to touch my principal, I never want to extract my principal like that whole four percent rule, my goal, who knows if it's

12:20going to happen, stay tuned, stay tuned for 40 years or now, but I never want to touch that principal, right? Because that's going to be the stuff I leave to my kids, you know, you know, charitable contributions, part of the 100 contract club mission to donate a million bibles in the next 10 years, right? So there's all these other things I still want to do, obviously, that money unfortunately allows us to do, that's the reality guys, right? So the next two little bit more riskier, but I do love them and that is Jepi and Jep Q. So a lot, been talking about them recently, a lot Jepi and Jep Q, these are primarily going to be my income focus ETFs, income ETFs, these are higher risk, but higher yields around, both of these, you know, brown 70, 11% dividend that I'm getting from them, how are they generating that yield to pay us monthly, right? They pay us monthly, not quarterly, these distributed monthly, and these are given to us, basically because they're selling cover calls, they're literally doing the same strategy I talk about here on the on the channel, right? So a lot of people are like cover calls don't work, cash together, literally,

13:23these funds that manage billions upon billions upon billions of dollars do it. So please stop, stop your nonsense, okay? But risk, right? Covered calls, cap your upside. So it just buying and holding Jepi or Jep Q, you're not going to beat spy, you're not because you're capping your upside, there's a lot more risk that go into a Jepi and Jep Q, but you don't know that because a lot of people are sold by this 11% annual yield and you're going in with no plan. See, my plan is a little bit different than most people's, I'm not just holding Jep Q just to make an 11% dividend, I want to sell cover calls against it. So I'm stacking additional premium on top of their monthly income, right? So that's what I'm doing, right? So those are my two income ETF plays as well that I've been stacking and this is this right here has kind of been the big foundation for me, especially for the last really month. This is where I've been really focusing pretty much all of my capital that I have towards these plays. Next, gold and Bitcoin, yes, I do buy physical gold, I like physical gold and I do buy a little bit of Bitcoin, very small amounts of both, right? These are gold for

14:28me is more of like a hobby, my father really was into coin collecting and stuff like that. So I kind of that kind of hobby passed on to me a little bit. I really like new mathematics, I enjoy that kind of stuff. I don't talk about a lot on this channel. If you'd want to hear the learn more, about gold and collecting, I love talking about that stuff too, all right? So and it's cool that there's actual value in those coins as well. So I do enjoy stacking, they call it, I do coin collecting as well where there's more extrinsic value than intrinsic value, meaning there's a lot of people make the mistake with gold that they will, they'll just go like on eBay and buy some gold, but they have no idea what they're actually buying. I don't recommend you do that. I recommend you finding a local coin shop that you can actually get some good deals with. For example, when I go by gold, there's a local coin shop nearby that will literally give a coin, their business model is literally at spot, they'll give you a gold ego at spot, which is kind of crazy when you compare it

15:28to other, and I'll call multiple places around me, and it's insane, right? So find like a good one that you could build a relationship, but that way you're getting some better deals. You know, buying even the 10,000s of gold here and there, I believe stacks over time, and I've always had such a strong belief in gold, maybe because it's written about in the Bible so many times, but I always like to buy a little bit of gold as much as I can on a monthly basis. And then very, very speculative, obviously, a little bit of Bitcoin, but during this dip, I have been buying a little bit of Bitcoin as well, because I always say I want to do it again, but then I don't. But I did end up like years ago, or not years ago, maybe at this point, years ago when Bitcoin first hit 100K, I got out of everything at that point. Glad I kind of did. I've been in the crypto space for a while, I'm the kind of dummy, dummy that got into the whole bit connect thing into the Celsius thing. So you guys, I'm not see, this is what I'm trying to tell you, right? Like I make a lot of stupid ass mistakes myself, right? So I fall for the high yield trap. And this is why now I have like a very

16:30strict principles that I follow with my investment strategy that I'm not deteriorated. I'm not, you will not be able to get me out of it, right? You will not be able to move me. I believe now boring scales. We know boring scales. A lot of you will say in the channel, you talk about the same thing every day. Yes, yes. And I will, I will continue to do so because I believe discipline, right? Patients are critical factors to investment success and success in anything that you want in life. And I have fallen for so many stupid things that are promising me a ton of money. And I end up losing a whole bunch of money. Okay, and that's not where I want to be, especially when I'm parking at my capital somewhere, but we all kind of have to live through those kind of mistakes. Lastly is individual stocks, right? I still do individual stocks, right? Smaller sizing though right now, right? So my bigger plays right now that I'm still working through. I've got covered calls on craft times. I got cover calls in on snapchat, got puts in on sofa, got puts in on American airlines, right? So there's still some of these socks that I'm still picking out, but I've been

17:32really more focused in on ETFs, right? I've been really focusing on ETFs and accumulation during this phase, at least in my life. So if you want to learn more about this guys and get a bunch of free resources, especially how to generate income from your stocks, whether you want to sell them or not, right? But how to treat them really as an asset that can actually generate you income from the markets. I want to invite you to our option strategy workshop, but it'll be the first link in the description of today's video at the end of it.
