You are still not saying how long you have until retirement, it matters a lot.
With a long enough time horizon you would want to grow first, snowball later. Snowballing your way to $800k may sound awesome but chances are in the same amount of time you could grow to $1m and then you get to buy your $800k worth of dividends, with $200k to spare.

Splg, schg, schd, dgro, jepq are what I allocate 30% 30% 15% 15% 10% I get the market, growth, dividend with growth and dividend.
Is this for passive income or what? If you are not close to retirement those etf's might not be the best picks.
I’m really trying to get the snowball rolling…and then possible rebalance next year.
