    I'm convinced that investing $50k-100k in the right company before it goes big is more important than saving for retirement. However, picking the right company is so hard that saving might be safer, cuz who would've guessed Nvda? I have around $200k in a HYSA and want to invest. What are the best opportunities now?

      I believe investors should start with S&P 500/ETFs for a solid foundation, then diversify across asset classes and maintain disciplined, regular investing to minimize risks and maximize growth.

    • @larrypaul-cw9nk
      @larrypaul-cw9nk Місяць тому +2

      For someone starting with $200k, begin with S&P 500 ETFs, diversify across asset classes, and invest consistently to minimize risks and maximize growth. Partnering with a financial advisor can help streamline your strategy. This approach turned $80k into $53,000 in annual dividends.

    I got huge value from this video. I had no idea about the targeted date funds and then how you can just sell part of your portfolio and more. So much great information. I'm 53 and never learned much about investing. Ugh. I'm pushing my two boys hard with them learning and have had them both open IRAs already. They are 15 and 20. I am imploring them to live below their means and invest and sharing these and other YT videos and books. They are excited to learn. Thankfully I have a good job with retirement but I am also wanting to build more and now use ETFs like SPY and VOO. I'm so glad I came across your channel. Your mom must be so proud!🙂

    My company paid a consultant to provide retirement classes when I was 24 and just started saving for retirement. The class was called "The Kids Table" and basically their advice was go with a target retirement fund that aligned with your 65th birthday. That was 20 years ago. It is the only thing I've ever invested in. How else can I grow my finance?

    The scary thing is that you will one day reach an age where you will no longer be able to work. Ready for it or not, it'll happen faster than you realize. Time really starts flying in your later years because you just fall into a comfortable routine. Pretend that it's happening right now to you. This is your last week of work. All you get is your social security. Can you do it? Because that's going to be the reality you'll be hit with pretty darn soon. I think most people wake up every monday as it is thinking, "man... I just can't do another day of this"
    Prepare for the worst. hope for the best

Do I have to continue to purchase stocks with my monthly deposits? or can I add it to the stocks that I currently have right now if so how do I do that?

    Interesting advice but if you are just get started in your 50's statistically you are in the highest tax bracket you will ever be in. Would not a regular brokerage be better than a ROTH at this age? Or even better yet a pretax account like your employer's 401k?
    I don't think having a ROTH is bad at any age but as you hit your 50's it is not giving you that much tax advantage.
    Perhaps you will suggest this later in the video but your 50's is the right time to consider downsizing in home. Most people will have their home mortgage mostly paid off and they can sell, downsize and invest the difference. This could be especially helpful if you really have not saved anything yet. Your home's equity can give you a boost early on in your savings/investing.

    Do you pay on taxes on dividends even after you retire? And if so, at what rate?

    Can you buy more than one type of ETF with the money you put into your roth every month? If so, do you recommend doing that?

    what if you open multiple Roth IRA from different brokage are you still limit to one brokage of max $6500 or it won't let you open another Roth IRA

      You can only contribute the contribution max per year for the sum of all your accounts.

    Is there a reason you pick ETF & not Index Fund?

    • @edcastillo4456

      Few things to explain. An ETF is a type of fund that often tracks existing indexes, similar to what an index fund does. An index fund allows tracks an underlying index, hence the name. The difference between an ETF and an index fund is how they are purchased. Regular index funds are purchased using forward pricing, while ETFs are bought at market or a specific price. Both are good investments, but everyone has a different reason for choosing one over the other.
