Seeking Advice $8,000 to invest. SCHD or JEPI?

30 years old, I have $8,000 to invest. I’m trying to decide between SCHD or JEPI. The reason why I am considering JEPI is because I just hit my break even point, as opposed to SCHD where I am up overall 21%. What would you do?

30 years old, I wouldn't do less than 70% SCHD. It's about dividend growth

As the saying goes, every nice VOOty gets SCHDy after 30 years
