Folks, New to investing and planning to spend an year or two with just indexes and mutual funds until I learn the art of reading balance sheets and earnings to venture into stocks. I started with a brokerage account both on vanguard and Schwab to start with. Liked the simplicity of vanguard and it's selection of low cost indexes while loved the awesome UI and various visualizations of performance on Schwab. I ended up investing through vanguard while linking the assets on Schwab just for visualizations. This has now got me the best in both worlds. I invest in vanguard brokerage through direct automated deposits but view performance summary and growth of my investments through Schwab(without investing anything on Schwab). Am I doing anything wrong? Missing anything? I'm curious to hear what you guys think about this approach. Any downsides? What approach do you guys use?
I have both. I much prefer Vanguard but have to use Schwab for my stock options.
Why?
