    I was working in the mortgage industry. Last year our company was bought, I was laid off the same week we had another kid and then we had to replace the whole roof. Emergency fund saved us since it took a couple months to get any unemployment

      I'm hoping to be close to that at that age, 1M by 40, currently 31. Investing over 3k/month at this point so it's not really achievable for most people unless they're super frugal or make a ton of money.
      Most of mine would be in a brokerage account though, no way I'd want the tax nightmare of 850k in a 401k account. That's going to be sooo much money once he actually hits retirement age, trying to be tax efficient is going to be borderline impossible even if he doesn't invest another dollar in the 401k.
      Mine would be closer to this:
      401K: 210k
      Roth: 160k
      Brokerage 723k

      @kevinkanter2537 6 місяців тому

      @@Lolatyou332 i also noted that - way too much to have in a 401k --- and therefore he saved most into a 401k. i think non tax-event investments in a taxable account is the way to go, though even minimal dividends would be taxable, given the proably hi-inncome.
      however, the roth conversion is something to look at, although the % taxes is still high given high compensation but might be considered ------ especially with such a long runway and the ability to build up the roth w/o any cap gains consequences llike taxable.
      you have considered the proviso ? ---> a conversion prior to age 59½ will not trigger a 10% early withdrawal penalty on the taxable amount converted, a subsequent distribution from the Roth IRA within the 5-year period that begins on January 1 of the year of the conversion may trigger a "recapture" of that penalty.

    I was unemployed for two years after my husband died. Looking back, I wish I had taken ANY JOB to stop the financial hemorrhaging (or at least slow the bleeding). I wasn't exactly in the best head space I guess you would say. Fast forward to today... last year was my highest earning year at the age of 58. I will be debt free in 2-3 months. After that, I should be able to invest roughly 50% of my income.

      @@Mikey12383 lol...yes..I'm 58. I get that reaction a lot. I eat healthy and exercise/strength train. I'm a nurse and have always worked 40+ hours a week so no time for fun in the sun. I'm currently working 50+ hours. Much of the year, I go to work in the dark and go home in the dark. Consequently, I have very few wrinkles. I take supplements to make up for the lack of vitamin D from the sun. Dating is wild. Most single men my age are broke and unhealthy and think I'm 35. The men that approach me are the same age as my children (36 and 38). Sadly, most of them are broke too because of auto and credit card debt (and very likely child support). I took care of an injured/sick spouse for 17 years and I'm not interested in becoming a sugar momma so I will probably remain single.

    I appreciate the answer to the question about moving closer to family. There are things that money can't buy and sometimes some financial sacrifice is worth it for the time with loved ones. Also, living closer to family may mean savings in other areas, such as childcare if family wants to help, or not having to spend as much time off from work and less costs to travel when you do want to visit.

    Congrats on the book!
    Can you guys do a show on what constitutes 3 to 6 months in an emergency fund?
    Is it 3-6 w/o skipping a beat on anything BAU? Is it 3-6 going into spartan mode? Is it 3-6 if one or both lose a job at the same time?
    The way I do it is 3 months BAU not including if I lost my job and receive severance and unemployment. This way it really is moving up to 6 months. Thoughts?
