    VTI "The fund has returned 7.12% since its inception in 2001 (as of May 2020).)

    Using Portfolio Visualizer I noticed that VTI had negative rolling averages in 1,3,5,& 10 time frames dating back to 1993. That might be a little too volatile for a retiree and could pose a sequence of return risk if one had to pull money from VTI during one of these lows.

    @bee; you're buzzer may be broke! Inception was2001. Maybe they subbed in the fund ?
    Enjoy your Sunday, Derf
