No, lots of index fund investors don't have a diverse portfolio, they get the diversity through the index fund (see bogleheads). A worldwide index fund from Vanguard is all you nee…

I am working on a nice PHP 7.1 codebase where we just started with DDD. It's awesome. Yeah there is quite a bit of legacy code still there (the application is over a decade old), b…
