Consider allocating 30-40% to a High-Yield Savings Account (HYSA) and enlisting the help of an advisor to diversify into positions with the rest of your capital.

We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.

Any chance at helping someone else get there?

[@stemikger]

@@josephmelton4721 there is no secret to it. Arrange your life in such a way that you can put as much in your 401K as possible. If you don't have that option, put it into a Roth IRA. Time will help your money compound and the results are pretty amazing. Also, don't think I make a lot of money because I don't. Anyone making at least $50K can do it, but sacrifices will have to be made. It is up to you to decide if those sacrifices are worth it to you, it was for me. Read The Automatic Millionaire by David Bach, and to confirm the reason why you are investing in Index Funds, read The Little Book of Common Sense Investing by John Bogle. Good Luck.

[@shastasilverchairsg]

Hey Stephen, I read that one possible danger of indexing is that the stock market will hit a prolonged bear period, right when you are on the verge of retirement and need to cash out to get money. I would like your thoughts on that.

[@stemikger]

@@shastasilverchairsg A couple of things come to mind. During bear markets most managed funds do worse than indedx funds, so you might as well stick with the lower priced alternative. Also, I am of the mindset that the closer you get to retirement, you should not be 100% in stocks. Lastly, while you are still saving, save more and when the good times no longer role, take less during retirement or even if you have to take from principal, if you saved enough it should all balance out at the end. There are many things that are not in our control, but keeping our cost low is not one of them. John Bogle does answer your question better than I ever can in the chapter entitled When the Good Times No Longer Roll in his book The Little Book of Common Sense Investing. P.S. I'm just an average Joe, so take my advice with a grain of salt and do what works best for you. Good Luck.
