The portfolio consists of the following index funds:

- 20% in Vanguard Emerging Markets Stock Index (VEIEX)  --- ETF: VWO
- 15% in Vanguard 500 Index (VFINX) --- ETF: VOO
- 15% in Vanguard Pacific Stock Index (VPACX) -- ETF: VPL
- 10% in Vanguard Extended Market Index (VEXMX) -- ETF: VXF

- 5% in Vanguard Total Stock Market Index (VTSMX) --- ETF: VTI

Notably, the portfolio has allocations in emerging markets, high yield corporate bonds and long term US treasury bonds, all of which are on high risk spectrum. The long term treasury bond has proved to be a good diversifier in the recent history.
