INVESTING Thoughts on the Bogleheads investing approach?

[RealDreams]

I was curious about what MJ and you guys think about Bogleheads' approach to investing.

From the page Getting started - Bogleheads, this is what it preaches:

Prepare to invest:

• Live below your means
• Develop a workable plan
• Never bear too much or too little risk
• Invest early and often

Create a portfolio:

• Diversify
• Invest with simplicity
• Use index funds where possible
• Minimize costs
• Minimize taxes

Maintain discipline:

• Never try to time the market
• Stay the course[note 1]

Yes, it reminds me of the slowlane. But if you already had a business making a lot of money, you'd find yourself wondering where to invest that money (what MJ called money system, IIRC).
I always see the S&P 500 recommended, but I am also looking at World ETFs such as the All-Words UCITS ETF that almost tracks the entire economy.

If not investing in that, what do you invest in? Real estate? Bonds? There aren't many options when I think about it.

Best investment is to sell something that the market needs and lit it on fire using paid ads.

I am getting 7x return on lInkedIn ads.

Of course there is diminishing return on ads budget if not I will sell all AI stocks and ETF I currently own and pour into LinkedIn.
