Hi!

First, you should have an investment objective in mind. If you need the capital in 5-10 years, then taking too much equity exposure will not be advisable as they will be exposed to market risks. So you can take a conservative approach and have a higher percentage, say 70-80%, of your capital invested in debt, and the remaining in equity.
You can also try using a robo-advisor, which takes into account your investment objective and horizon to suggest an optimal portfolio for you. It is not too expensive to make use of their algorithm so a lot of your capital will not be eroded by any fee.
I work at kristal.AI, and it's my passion to evaluate various upcoming investment opportunities.
