.. as in I know nothing about investing/stocks/bonds/etc. I’ve already bought a few books and plan to read them soon… let’s say I have $100-200 laying around to start investing, and hopefully can contribute that much on a monthly basis. Thinking about going with fidelity. How would you invest that money?

I believe total market funds is a n oversimplification. I’d recommend a target date fund or a more focused fund. Over diversification is a thing. Just read the objective of a bunch of funds and pick one you believe in. All the major platforms are good.

Vanguard, capital group, fidelity, etc, etc.

Total stock market index fund. Buy and hold.

Yes, VTSAX like everyone is saying, but do it through a tax advantaged account if possible.

Fidelity, tax advantaged account (HSA, IRA) or taxable, total market fund(ITOT, FZROX, etc).

This question is asked daily and answered the exact same way every time. Total market funds.
