    SPY and VBR are great funds. Low cost. Buy and hold.

    An excellent suggestion Anglesea.

    Do you think it might be better to invest in VOO instead of SPY since it trades on the Irish Stock Exchange and Vanguard commissions are lower, or would you prefer to have your investments in dollars? I can see the advantage in both approaches.

    What return/loss have you made?

    Also you are probably invested in too many funds (overly diversified) - a loss in one fund will be cancelled with a gain in the other leading to minimal change and with the addition of management fees will then lead to an actual loss

    How are things going for you? Saxo seems to be the most widely recommended but has a steep (for me) minimum deposit. Rabo's minimum is only €100 afaik, but they have a very limited range of funds.

    Hi Brian,

    Sorry for not responding before now. I am cataloging my attempts to get with a broker in the "suggested sticky : broker review" thread. :)
