It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

Hello, I enjoy your videos. They are very informative. There is one correct. If you are age 55 or over, you do have access to your funds without the 10% tax penalty provided that there is a separation from your job, i. e. retirement or lay-off.

Although IRS allows this, it does not necessarily mean that your company plan needs to comply with it. It is at your company's discretion. Some company plans will only allow you after your separation to take a full distribution or rollover. You have to check in your company's 401K plan if they allow partial distributions after age 55 and separated. Note that, if your plan allows it, but if you roll it over to an IRA, you lose this option and will need to wait until age 59 1/2.

If you want less bonds in a Target Date fund, you can invest in a fund further out in retirement. Example: scheduled to retire in 2040 but invest in a 2070 fund. Personally, I’m not a fan of these funds, but one can tweek them for more stock exposure.

Great video, thanks! Another thing to keep in mind about 401k employer match is that there is often a number of years you have to work there before you are "vested" and can actually retain that matched employer money. If you leave the company before the vested time period, or if you are let go, you will not get the employer match. That's why we don't consider employer match to be a very good reason to go work for a company. It's a good benefit, but not a guarantee.

@@OurRichJourney can you pls tell me why you choose Lisbon over Porto? Porto, from what I read, is cheaper than Lisbon. Both cities also though, just did away with the Golden Residence Permit programme...

Right now, I have 401k with Vanguard 2060 Target Date. I realized that it has a little bit higher expense ratio and also I am 26 y.o. I think I can be more aggressive. I want to change my current fund to other index funds. If I sell my current fund and buy a new fund will have to pay taxes and penalty in the next year's tax report?

How do your taxes work? Since you’re invested in USA funds like VTSAX etc, how are you able to maintain your portfolio when residing abroad? When I checked with Vanguard, they mentioned they would freeze the accounts in that you can’t buy more but can draw from your investments. Any answers will be quite helpful, thanks!

For my TSP, Ive been doing 20% and I’m 100S. I’m also 23 have a Roth IRA with Vanguard and a brokerage account to buy stocks so too much of my money doesn’t sit in savings, just enough to buy real estate. I’m personally not sure if I want to do FIRE but I invest like I do 😂

Hi - I absolutely love your comment and basically tell strangers in the supermarket they need to follow you ! Question- I have a work based 401k ( non-matched) that I’m not able to max out, I contribute to HSA and I invest in TD/Robinhood - my own stock picks. I KNOW I’m allll over the place. What should I concentrate on first if I can’t max out my 401k due to bills etc. ?

Can you help me understand? If you both nearly maxed out your 401K last year AND you retired by accessing dividends. Because you can't access your 401k in early retirement, does this mean that you contributed similar amounts of month to other investment accounts to ensure early retirement?
