I'm torn, because I don't think mutual funds are the way to go, but at the same time, I have a decent chunk of change I want to invest but I don't have enough knowledge about ETF's I feel. So I'm debating robo advisor, just because then I can pick a basket that satisfies my risk tolerance, but I don't like the only bank that does robo up here, and I don't know that I trust Wealthsimple and others.

I have been thinking about this recently too as I have been investing a little over the years into a dividend equity mutual fund from Schwab. I realized they have a very similar dividend equity ETF that seems to make more sense as an investment.
