The advice below around spreading the risk is good imo
Keep an eye on the growth rate and make sure you are getting an adequate return for the degree of risk you are taking.
A lower annual percentage management fee doesn't necessarily make it better value if your managed fund isn't returning decent yields.
Might be worth getting an independent Financial Advisor to have a look at what they could offer and provide some examples of what they historically return for high risk investments.
