Thanks for this. I appreciate your insight. Also, for the plug at the end for life insurance. My wife and I are expecting our first child in December and we are looking into life insurance. She doesn't have an IRA yet but I was looking into opening her a Roth IRA and contributing to it on her behalf. I already have one myself. But I've also been wanting to contribute to the brokerage account to grow our investments faster with a bit more liquidity than a retirement account. That said, do you recommend prioritizing maxing both IRAs before making contributions to a brokerage account? Thanks

Many women put themselves in a great financial position by getting married, then getting divorced and using the system to build wealth. Men , however are just screwed by wealth, creating, let's say marrying women. Every single vid about a women creating wealth has a man financing it all due to divorce.

You are correct, unfortunately when a person marries, they loose their financial individuality. I was only married for 6 years at the ripe old age of 30 with 2 kids, I was pushed into financial responsibility. Financially it was the best thing to happen to me as it made me plan for my future. Broke my old age down to how will I get the care I need as I need it. You need money and a multi person dwelling home. I have completed the first part and am now ready to build a new home that has a self contained studio attached. Until I need care I will rent the studio out then when I need care, I will hire a carer that will live in the house and I will move into the studio. The provision of the housing will form part of their wage. We all need to think outside the box for long term care and make the most of what we have.

So front load it for early in year, and still get the total match of 6%. Not hard. 70% of my check is the max I can do with my company. I set it to 70% for 3 months and then drop it to 6% for the rest of the year. Best of both worlds.
@papasquat35510 ай бұрын
The more I learn about the 401k, the more I think a max Roth and brokerage are a much better approach. The only time a 401k is the better option is when you know your tax rate at contribution is higher than the tax rate in retirement, but even then it becomes taxable income that impacts capital gains and social security taxes. The combination of Roth and brokerage would provide a zero amount of taxable income at retirement which would produce 0% capital gains in the brokerage and untaxed Social Security. Please let me know if I'm wrong.

My employer in 2024 started a great program where they do a match true-up at the end of the year for those that max prior to the last paycheck. I used to go around telling everyone to not max prior to 12/31 for your max match. I thought this was a huge QOL improvement.

I would like to add, I max my 401(k) contribution early on as the company I work for trues up the match in Q1 of the year after you max it out. I like to get it out of the way and believe time in the market is better than timing the market.

You should also have figured your fixed income, and/or buffer savings, and budget, to weather times when the market is down. Also you need to have a lowest boundary, a number amount that you don’t let your portfolio go below. For example, in your example of the two people that started out with a $500,000 portfolios, if they both set in their mind that they would not let their portfolio go below $300,000 then when the portfolio got close to that amount they would stop or severely slow down their withdrawls. Part of good retirement planning should include budget planning. You should have a variety of budgets planned for, a good year budget, a bad year budget, a bare bones budget. You also need to look at your fixed income and in the years going up to retirement work to maximize your fixed income as much as possible. Fixed income being things like Social Security and pensions ( a bare bones budget should allow you to live on fixed income only). Your portfolio should be considered Variable income and used like a “bonus” when you do take money out. Also have a buffer savings account, this is not an emergency fund, but to be used as supplement if the market is down, if you can’t take money from your portfolio. Part of the big problem is that people want to spend too much in retirement, they buy too many expensive cars, take too many expensive trips. It’s not an income problem, but an output problem. I’m 70, been retired since age 67, have two people living on my retirement, and am doing ok.
@sallyprzybil240411 ай бұрын
So the solution is that before you take your yearly withdrawal to check and see what percentage your account made ( or lost) the previous year then decide what it is safe to take out. For last year my portfolio returned 26%, so I assume an 8% withdraw for last year is ok. One of my investments, an Index fund, returned 35% over the last year, boy do I wish I had more in that one than I did! The premise of Dave’s 8% remark depends on the structure of each individuals portfolio. The big question is : is the portfolio structured for maximum gains, or not?

Buy a 30 year term life policy when you get married. Then every month buy one "stock" of the sp500 in a brokerage account. At the end of 30 years you won't need a life insurance policy anymore. If you did things right, you can use that money to retire early and wait to access your 401k until you reach the right age.

Google s&p yearly returns by year. Now assume $2 million at retirement for someone who retired in 2007. Withdrawing 8% per year leaves them with about $300k by 2015. It is not easy to beat the market over a long period. 97% of actively managed funds underperform the s&p over any 10 year period.

@@joelfenner9179 exactly. I am thankful to grow up in a household that was excessively frugal (a bit more than we should've been). My dad made several hundred thousand a year and my folks still lived like they did when they grew up in working class families. We had a nice house in a great quiet neighborhood but that's about as far as it went. My folks hardly ever bought new vehicles. My dad has a 2014 F150 and will drive that for probably another 5 years. Mom has a 2016 Honda Accord base model they bought new for 21k. She'll drive that until it goes to my sister. We go on vacations annually but usually they aren't anything extreme. Never feel for middle class scams (Disney world, etc). Shop at discount grocery stores and Costco. Never bought new clothes, always went to discount stores or secondhand stores. I hated it growing up. Most everyone in my school had newer and nicer clothes (with parents who made significantly less) and had the latest and greatest tech. I didnt get my own cell phone until I was 18. Shared one with 3 siblings from 16 to 18. We lived well under our means. I've carried that onto adulthood. I want a similar quality life as my folks provided and will be as frugal as my folks were for good reason. Life is very expensive and there's no point in spending more than absolutely necessary. Generally you can get similar quality clothes at thrift stores. I got 3 pairs of Levi's at the local thrift store for $21. They would've cost me close to $200 if I had bought them new. They were practically new. Only thing I won't buy used are socks and briefs. Past that it's fair game.

I agree, 12% annualized returns is not realistic and you have to account for taxes and fees. Also, the stock market performance we have seen over the last 30+ years was mostly through artificially low interest rates and endless money printing. National debt was ~$3T in 1990, where now it sits at ~$34T. By the end of 2024, we will be looking at nearly a 12x increase over the last 35 years. In order for you to get that 7.5% annualized return from the S&P over the next 35 years, the national debt would need to increase by 12x or more from here to there. That would be the end of the USD, folks.

Not long ago, I watched a George Kamel video (one of Dave R. disciples) where he professed that using an 11% average annual return was OK for projections. I commented, "Is presuming an 11% annual return on investment over a 25-year period realistic or is that myth # 6???" I was totally roasted in the replies to my comment! From my observations, it seems that every 7-years or so, vast chunks of moneys evaporate due to "market corrections", dropping that "average annual return" well below the rates professed by many financial advisors' recommendations. As a retiree, I am constantly amazed how the vast majority of investment professionals provide bad advice, or as you say, present "unrealistic expectations" for average investors. And before all of you internet trolls roast me again, I will just say that I'm not an investment professional, merely an old fart ACTUALLY living off of his methodical yet realistically projected retirement income, and not some currently employed Investment Professional or KZbin professor, regurgitating unrealistic internet myths... Thank you for stating the truth here. Zk

Unfortunately these guys are spot on. Following Dave Ramsey's system changed my life and I would recommend it to anyone regardless, but the predictable, consistent 12% mutual funds he insist exist do not exist. I went to several ELPs and found one that claimed they found out exactly what mutual fund company Dave has (Capital Group - American Funds). Average returns (after fees - very important) across the board were around 8-9% across all mutual funds. Some where higher, some where lower, but it's all a guess. No one knows which one is going to be the best. 15% into retirement is still an optimal number to put into retirement. However, I would strategize with your FP and assume the 4% rule is a much safer measure of your retirement income if you want to ensure long-term stability of your nest egg and pass on a financial legacy to your children or institutions of choice.
