Certainly max out your Roth before you do anything else. That said, what does your emergency fund look like? Any fat there you can shift into the market?

Eta: I see no real reason to diversify these already heavily diversified positions. That said, if you can invest enough to qualify for admiral shares, I highly advise that you do so. It will knock off almost .1 from your expenses.

Have 1yr of "Mandatory" living expenses (Household Obligations, Gas, Food, Auto Insurance, Student Loans) in it.

Yeah that's a good point, of the 2, I'd stick with VFINX. But you're gonna do fine either way.

If you wanna diversify, you can find a global blend fund and avoid overlap.
