What are the differences between the two Frankenstein versions?

There are two versions of Frankenstein: 1818 and 1831.

So I just finished reading Frankenstein 1831 and now I’m curious what was different in the 1818 version.

Are the changes big or was it just a few sentences that were tweaked? What are the major plot differences in the 1818 version?

Btw it was a good book, I recommend it.

Is this a good pie for long term growth (invest and forget)?

My plan:
Autoinvest £1k a month into this pie for the long term 10+ years. I won’t panic sell under any circumstances. I will ignore the pie and not make any changes/updates. This is an ISA account.

My thinking:
S&P 500 - historically has been the best performing ETF in the long term. Although, there is a high risk for an AI bubble crash at some point but who knows when and who knows how bad it will be. There’s also a risk that other countries, such as China, may end up dethroning USA when it comes to the best performing stocks.

FTSE All World - similar to the S&P 500 (some overlap) but this is for the whole world instead of just USA. If the rest of the world ends up outperforming USA, this will beat the S&P 500. I know the overlap with the S&P is significant, but in the long term that is subject to change if the rest of the world ends up outperforming USA.

Gold - historically has always achieved good long term growth. If there is a bear market, this should outperform the S&P 500 and the FTSE All World.

Berkshire Hathway - Good long term growth and a safe pick for when there is a market downturn. If there is an AI bubble pop, I expect this stock to rally hard.

What are your thoughts? Do you think this pie will achieve good returns in the long term (10+ years)? Are there any changes you would make?

Edit - Thanks for the help everyone. I am going to rebalance it to the following:
FTSE All World - 80%
Gold - 10%
Berkshire Hathway - 10%
S&P 500 - 0%

I guess this can be split into two categories, hardest nintendo game to beat and hardest nintendo game to get 100%. Interested in seeing what your picks are :^)

Edit: To be clear, Nintendo must have made the game. Third party games on nintendo consoles don't count
