88% Of Your Roth IRA Returns Depend On This

[@Enthalpein]

Just got into my 30's and started paying more attention to my retirement thanks to your videos and others. Glad to have some validity in my portfolio moving forward.

Terrific content sir, thanks! For Molly.

[@JarradMorrow]

Oh wow! Thank you so much! You're too kind!

[@smalltalk.productions9977]

"trust the process. ignore the noise. continue investing" thank you for the effort and the sharing. as a near retiree, perhaps a future video about sequence of returns risk and how to mitigate. thumbs up.

[@JarradMorrow]

It would take me many videos to cover SRR since it's a topic I think deserves to be explained in depth. I might make the series at some point in the future, but probably won't be for a while if I do. A resource I trust and recommend on SRR is this one right here: earlyretirementnow.com/safe-withdrawal-rate-series/ It's long (52 different parts), but it's well worth taking a couple weeks/months to read each one from start to finish.

It's often asked at what percentage of loss would someone be willing to tolerate before panicking. But in most instances what is really the point would be when would they start selling because of such a drop. It's not really a loss unless the shares are sold! That's a big difference from what is usually inferred. If someone is at a point where their assets must be sold for living expenses, then that's a different matter!

[@hiufanchow9954]

Thank you so much for your videos Jarrad! I am really in love with them. May I ask which day of the month usually has the lowest price to invest in index fund ETF ? Thanks a lot!!😆

[@sebastianzeitblom4668]

After stock picking followed by a complex ETF portofolio including factor tilts, I have now settled on VT and chill. The only change I am considering for the future is adding a broad bond ETF some years before transitioning from the saving to the spending phase.

2022 was a wildly unusual outlier in the way both stocks and bonds dropped together.

I’ll probably never own any bonds or international stocks throughout my lifetime.

[@Steveo_00700]

@MrDarkBM There have been periods when the S&P had underperformed for a 10 year period. During those years, internationals blew US stocks out of the water. Just enlightening you.

[@DylanJo123]

​@@MrDarkBMright now it does. Who knows how it ll be in the future

[@bonanzatime]

I'm in agreement, I don't see how any other country can do better than the USA. The era of emerging markets is over. There may be little pockets here and there, but it won't be in any already developed countries, especially because their populations are declining rapidly. .. I see no point in owning bonds either, since it's easy enough minimize risk with ultra conservative ETFs without 'the surprises' of 'the bond market', and all those 'junk bonds' that only reveal themselves AFTER the collapse.

[@Asstronauts93]

Bonds are for cash positions

[@michaelswami]

Great advice. Trim the flowers and water the weeds.

[@jasond6602]

Jarrad how many years before retirement are you planning to convert into bonds and your stock to bond mix at retirement? Curious on your thoughts. 7 years prior to retirement, 60/40? Btw I use your videos to help teach my 14 year old son. Thanks again.

[@JarradMorrow]

I'm going to start reviewing my situation 10 years out to determine if I want to begin adding bonds. I'll look at my overall financial situation and where my retirement savings are at to make a decision. Once I have a plan I'll probably meet with a fee-only fiduciary advisor to get another set of eyes on it to make sure I'm not accidentally overlooking something.

[@LASLOEGRI]

This is a very representative presentation of how “investment people” think. As such it is worth your attention. However money is made by looking at what businesses do and paying attention to their future prospects. You can’t buy a stock from a technical chart (astrology) or based on past performance (Kodak). People will always need power (energy, utilities) and food, water, healthcare.

[@enonknives5449]

Risk/return has to take into account timeframe. High short-term risk is often low long-term risk. Low short-term risk is often high long-term risk.

[@korndawggy1801]

Jarrad, when you say tax advantaged account(when you were talking about the target date or Life Strategy), are you referring to a 401k vs Roth IRA?

[@JarradMorrow]

When I say tax advantaged account I'm referring to retirement accounts where you either pay the taxes up front to get tax free growth (Roth IRA/401k/etc. type accounts) or the ones where the taxes are deferred (like Traditional IRA/401k/etc). TDFs are fine in those accounts, but you probably want to avoid holding them in taxable brokerage accounts if possible due to how they sometimes have to sell off underlying assets which causes the investor to pay capital gains. Do a google search for "vanguard target date fund tax issue" so you can get a real life example of how holding a TDF in a taxable brokerage account could end up screwing you over.

[@franowens2789]

Great video! Quick question. I was unemployed in 2023 yet at the same time didn't qualify to contribute to IRA due to filing taxes jointly. So I am planning to open a backdoor Roth IRA, and keep my traditional IRA $0 when using an investment platform. Do I need to report this somewhere when filing my tax returns? Secondly, I mistakenly filed my tax returns already (without reporting my plans of opening a backdoor Roth IRA), does this mean I can open a backdoor Roth IRA only for 2024? Third, what do you think about also opening a HSA account and contributing towards the same? Appreciate your videos. Please keep them coming.

[@alrocky]

If your spouse worked in 2023 you could have contributed to 2023 IRA. If you contributed $6,500 to your 2023 IRA you can convert that to Roth IRA.

[@TheDistrict2380]

I wonder if it would be okay to add a little bitcoin, gold and bonds, international stocks as a small percentage of my portfolio.

[@cesarpenailillo6627]

Question can I replace the U.S Short Term Bonds, for my treasury inflation protected security index fund? Should I replaced it? O can keep both.

[@JarradMorrow]

You can hold whichever bonds you feel fits your needs. Unfortunately I can't say one way or the other if you should keep both.

[@Donkeyearsa]

Every single YT ad I saw wail watching this video was for either for some form of day trading service or someones get rich quick system program they want you to buy. Its funny how the YT ads for a video are very badly matched up to the video they are shown with.

Sorry about that. It's fixed now. Thanks for letting me know.

[@tombkk1322]

Do you have a recommended asset allocation in a Roth IRA in retirement. I was in 100% Total Stock Market index Fund but was thinking of adding some bonds. I’ve always heard better to maximize your returns if you don’t plan on touching your Roth in retirement.

If the volatility exceeds your time horizon, it’s a loss. The Nikkei still hasn’t gotten back to 1990 levels, 30 plus years of poor performance keeps me up at night. But if total market means total global market, then I agree.

Never understood why younger individuals only have 2 funds in their portfolio. They should have at least a small company growth fund and a value stock fund. The rate of return is definitely higher over time with small company funds.
