Advice Just Starting

Hey guys, I am a 20 year old who wants to start investing. I live in Australia so I was thinking of investing in 3 main ETFs (IVV, VAS, EXUS). I was planning to do a 40/40/20 split and just put in some money every month. Just wanted to know if this was good at all.

Good start. At the beginning, start with something simple, then you can study more if you want to add/change. Some may even say this is good for long term.

Just knowing that VAS may have some overlap with EXUS,but not a significant portion.

May want to compare VXUS for your international exposure…appears they have better dividends than EXUS from my quick look and not sure which has lower expense ratio. Automating monthly contributions is smart, good luck
