I still like Berkshire, QQQE, and RSP.
Sorry but this is terrible advice for that woman! She asked for something stable. A stock market swoon, and she will sell. At the worst time.
Never mind that risk-adjusted or non-risk-adjusted returns have been better for market cap weighted indices than equal-weighted. That's almost secondary. She should not put her life savings 100% in stocks! Especially now that nominal government bond rates are more reasonable than in the QE era.
Repeating myself because it's the better thing to do for her. Let her buy a mix of stock and bond funds. 60:40 stocks:bonds to 20:80 as she feels comfortable.
