Is going all in on Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF a stupid idea?
I'll put in 500 bucks every months and try to hold it for 10-20 years and also am too lazy to keep up with the market.
Are there more promising one-ETF or two-ETF solutions?

I suggest you compare ex-US world etfs vs the S&P500. You'll find most of the world that isn't the US kinda sucks. You might consider such an ETF as a hedge though if it looks like the US is about to shit the bed.

That's what I'm worrying about, otherwise I would instant go all in on S&P 500
But USA might be a third world shit place in 2040, the whole world is unlikely

If you lived in South Africa in a gated community, with just South African investments, would you necessarily be panicking?
Maybe, maybe not.
The USA is a long way from thirdworld. They'll be boosting Hispanic fetus IQs by 20 with a simple pill by 2050.
I would stick to the US, maybe buy Asia Pacific excl Japan if you want foreign exposure, stay clear of Latin America and Europe
