My savings are 30% cash, 70% in ETFs and RoboAdvisors, trying to save and build up a small saving account for wedding.
I know it is far from all the other achievers in this forum. Just want to seek advice and honest opinions from experienced forumers how am I doing? and if I can do better in terms of investing to grow my savings more.
Hoping to find a partner and settle down in the next 1 to 2 years

to add on, I am a male and reason for the above post is
I recently met a lady from online dating app, she is 1 year younger than me (29) doing sales (non banking) in FMCG. I was shocked that she already invested in a 2 bedder condominium at her age.
Looking back, I do not even have sufficient savings to hold a proper wedding. Let alone buying / investing in properties.
Hence I want to get some feedback on what I am doing wrongly
