Recently got my finances in check, thanks to Seedly's Framework and 50/30/20 budget guide.
As I want to invest internationally, I opened an IBKR account, sourced for Ireland-domiciled ETF to minimize costs, and narrowed down to VUAA (S&P 500) or VWRA (FTSE AW).
In comparison, VWRA (FTSE AW) provides more diversification than VUAA (S&P 500) but has higher TER (VWRA @ 0.22% vs. VUAA @ 0.07%).
Plan to DCA monthly with limited funds, not sure which factor is more important.

Hi, I just started investing recently 2 weeks back. I'm allocating as follow:
CSPX (40%) SP500 LSE
IWDA (40%)

Hi, You did already a very good job (cheap broker with IE domiciled fund unverse, planned asset allocation).
Since the better diversified MSCI ACWI ETFs have relatively high fees,
You could still consider instead MSCI World ETFs (accumulating) with each 0.12% TER:
Lyxor Core MSCI World (DR) UCITS ETF - Acc ISIN LU1781541179
SPDR MSCI World UCITS ETF ISIN IE00BFY0GT14
or distributing the cheapest (0.15% TER) being
SPDR MSCI World UCITS ETF ISIN IE00BFY0GT14βββ
