General total market exposure: yes. ETFs can provide exposure to the total market, just tech, renewable energy, etc - if you have conviction about a sector/theme of individual equities there’s probably an ETF for that. That said, “ETF” alone doesn’t tell us much other than you’d like to play safer and more easily than picking individual stocks to play. When shopping, check in on what specific stocks the ETFs are invested in and how they’re weighted compared to others in the same theme you’re looking into.

Unless the family is filthy rich and can weather all of the storms that come with old age, it’s best to not count on it and be pleasantly surprised is there is an inheritance - expect nothing other than what you yourself can provide for is the best approach imo … this is the American way these days.

What could go wrong?

At this point how does anyone trust anyone with their data?

Maybe they’re counting on multiple buyers?

Edit: I guess more likely they’d just toss access to the buyer for the data, get paid, and bounce…

Flash a distro onto a usb and boot from that to test drive it and ensure your hardware is compatible - zero risk.

I promise whatever your current PC is can run Linux just fine. Pull the trigger. Install Linux on a USB, boot your current hardware to the thumb drive to take it for a spin, when you can see it works fine, flash the main drive with Linux and don’t look back.

A flood of cheat codes just rose up inside of me that I forgot existed.

Who’s going to step up and start creating a “dumb” version of absolutely everything? One brand dedicated to just making the thing do the thing it absolutely must do and nothing else.
