[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone find this kind of amusing? The bogleheads and FIRE crowds are so smug about their investing in index funds. I personally think diversity is so important. Index funds are fine but there is always a risk. [/quote] This specific issue has been discussed on the Bogleheads forum. It has nothing to do with index funds and everything to do with an investor being educated enough to know what they buying and about asset location. TDF do not belong in taxable accounts for a variety of reasons, this being one of them. Even ETFs have capital gains distributions.[/quote] It has almost nothing to with an investor being educated and everything to do with Vanguard screwing over small investors. You could go a lifetime investing and not have this happen or it seems like the exact same problem could occur if Vanguard did the same thing for a different index fund. [/quote]
