What are the fees on those?
Edit: looked it up, the 2050 is 0.16%, not bad. I usually see much higher fees on those target date funds.

yes, definitely go straight to vanguard for any of their products! i should've said as much, thanks for doing so.
they're so easy to deal with there's hardly any point in purchasing any of their products elsewhere.

once you've saved up enough to buy into the admiral shares, that's certainly the easiest thing to do. but their ETFs are just shares of the admiral-level funds. so their expense ratios are identical.
