• Advice on a 3 fund start?

  Right now, bonds are not something I recommend (or use), I use 1. Promo CD (depositaccounts.com), 2. MYGAs (blueprintincome.com), or 3. Ibonds (https://thefinancebuff.com/how-to-buy-i-bonds.html) (mostly ibonds lately). Source: almost 2 years ago

• I’ve read the wikis, asked a lot but still can’t understand.

  You need to answer the question - when do you want the funds to be accessible to spend (on whatever)? If you've got at least 5 years, you're probably OK to put them into VTI. If you have 2-5 years, you're best off with promo CDs (depositaccounts.com) or MYGA (blueprintincome.com) . If you've got >2yrs, then just put them into a HYSA or promo rate rewards checking accounts. Source: about 2 years ago

• Switching from target date fund to VTSAX/FZROX

  Personally I eschew Target Date because I do not want my FI portion in Bonds, I want them in promotional CDs (depositaccounts.com), or MYGAs (blueprintincome.com), so my brokerage just has VTSAX(VTI) and VTIAX(VXUS). If you're at Fidelity I would just use the VG ETFs (VTI+VXUS). If you like the Fidelity Mutual Funds, go ahead and use those, very little difference, I think VG ETFs slightly edge them out, but that's... Source: about 2 years ago

• ETFs and what else?

  I recommend putting your "bond" portion into promo bank/CU CDs (depositaccounts.com), or into a MYGA (blueprintincome.com), because both are earning more than bonds right now. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is an investment timeframe < 10 years gambling?

  You have other options beyond a HYSA. There are Treasuries, promotional bank CDs (depositaccounts.com), MYGAs (blueprintincome.com). Source: over 2 years ago
