Nomadic investor – VWRP/VWCE vs FWRG vs Vanguard Retirement 2060?

Hey everyone,

I’m **25** and planning to invest **long-term — around 35 to 40 years — until I (hopefully) retire at 60**.
My life is very **nomadic**. I move often and have no fixed country of residence. I might live in **Europe, Asia, or elsewhere** throughout my life. However, there’s a high chance that I’ll eventually settle and become **fiscally domiciled in Europe**.

---

## ETF Options I’m Considering:

- **VWCE / VWRP** – Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS (EUR or GBP)
- **FWRG** – Fidelity World Index UCITS (EUR)
- **Vanguard Target Retirement 2060** fund (UCITS version)

---

## My Main Questions:

1. **VWCE/VWRP vs FWRG**
- I know **FWRG has a lower TER (0.12%)**
- **FWRG is newer** – should I be worried about **fund size, liquidity, or longevity**?

2. **Does the ETF currency matter?**
- Should I **prefer EUR-denominated ETFs** (like VWCE or FWRG) since I may retire in Europe?
- Or is that irrelevant, considering **underlying assets are mostly USD-priced anyway**?

3. **What about Vanguard’s Target Retirement 2060 (UCITS)?**
- Is it a good **long-term, hands-off option**?
- Or am I better off building my allocation with **VWCE/FWRG** and adjusting it myself over time?

## Any insights from other long-term or nomadic investors would be super appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
