How to use?
You can use this strategy in any account where you can buy Vanguard funds.
​
If your account does not offer the funds , then use the fund that is closest to our recommendation.
Considering that the MF-V plan is a single fund at a time strategy (vs a portfolio of funds), you may want to hold 50% of your investments in a birthdate fund of your desire and the remaining 50% in this strategy for that extra boost. Or like we do, use the Mutual Fund pack for 50%/50% MF-V and MF-F strategies
