Help with Brand new 401k Plan picking funds

[resjudicata]

@israelarb Weird in a financial planning sub no one has mentioned risk. Are you comfortable seeing your account down 15-20%?

@resjudicata Yea, I want aggressiveness since I’m young. Also you just described my old employer 401ks YTD

@israelarb Haha yep! Bad time to look. Sounds good, just wanted to make sure you’re fine with risk. Some people lose their minds and can’t sleep.

@israelarb S&P 500 index is the easy choice. But if I had to pick, it would be 50% small cap value and 50% large cap value.
