Mid-Term Portfolio Alt

I'm building this portfolio to help me prepare for mid-term financial goals, mainly things like house renovations over the next five years. It’s designed with stability and flexibility in mind, balancing potential growth with lower risk options. I'm not chasing big wins, I want my money to work quietly in the background, but at a better rate than MoneyMarket funs, so that when it’s time to rebuild the kitchen, fix up the bathroom, or make some upgrades, I'll have a solid pot ready.
