[@MaximilianFischer497]

It is advisable to save at least 15% of your income in a 401(k). Online calculators can help you estimate the appropriate savings amount based on your age and income. By saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k), you can work towards a comfortable retirement. This strategy allows you to benefit from compound interest, potentially growing your retirement savings significantly over time.

[@TicheDebb0]

I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $338k stock portfolio. With Roth IRA, the money you are contributing has already been taxed. At any time for any reason, you can withdraw your contributions tax-free and penalty-free. Additionally, any earnings on investments can also be withdrawn tax-free and penalty-free, Not sure how much to contribute.

[@AshleySommerset808]

Nobody knows anything You need to create your own process, manage risk and stick to the plan, through thick or thin While also continuously learning from mistakes and improving.

[@MarshalWagner457]

Exactly why i enjoy market decisions being guided by a pro , seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk management and market experience , been using a portfolio-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over $3million in that time frame.

[@EvelynBrooks0]

I’m in dire need of guidance so i can salvage my portfolio due to the massive dips and come up with better strategies. How can I reach this advisor?

This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation

I did the same in end of March ! Quit my 120k Job / Living in Toronto too !

The joy and freedom I have in last few months is unbelievable . I can’t believe how I spent all my life sitting in office 9-5 ,,, I live of couple of thousand dollar !

Alex Campili cuz not a lot interests me....I’m not trying to sit in an office for 40 years, no matter what job they give me in that office. Not trying to do trade work for the next 40 years either...really just don’t wanna be a slave to the system. So I’ll work one of those “great” jobs you mentioned for about 10 years and try to retire and enjoy time with friends family and children...is it that hard to understand? We all can’t love those slave jobs man.

[@alexc5369]

@@b__w_4565 I agree, it can feel like being a slave to the system if you don't enjoy what you do, owning a million dollar business can still feel like you are a slave with a certain mindset, from your first dollar you earn and pay tax on you are contributing the 'the system'. I'm just getting at, if you don't aspire to be an office worker.. then don't go down that path.. don't go to uni for years for a degree that will lead you to an office role and then complain that you are a slave. It is still important to have a purpose, not just 'spend time with friends and family' - what will you be doing when your kids are at school, and your friends are working? However you decide to earn your living, it will always be by providing value in the market place, there are thousands of ways to do this. Good luck in finding your path.
