As a small background:
Career changer expected to graduate in 2022 (pharmacy) with strong anticipation of no debt upon graduation. When I say no debt, I mean no loans of any type such as student, auto, personal loans along with no credit card debt. Now I'm also medically retired from the military with a tax exempt pension to the tune of 3500 a month.
My question is concerning my current stock strategy. I am a bit of a risk taker when it comes to stocks as I only invest in the 500 and small cap index funds at a 60/40 split for the past years. Part of my reason is due to security of passive income (not including a change in my salary upon graduation) coupled with no debt other than potential mortgage when the time comes. Should I diversify my long-term investment cycle out from the two stocks or maintain my aggressive strategy? A side of me still thinks distribution in the stocks while in my 30's still has long-term potential despite possible frequent dips and rises.
Just curious what others think or what they would do.
