    My spouse and I are adding a variety of stocks/ETF to our present holdings, we've set aside $350k to start following inflation-indexed bonds and stocks of companies with solid cash flows, I believe this is a good time to capitalize on the market dip for long-term gains, but it wouldn't hurt to know means of actualizing short term profits too.

    This is the order that is best
    ROTH 401K up to full match
    If ROTH 401K is not an option 401k to full match.
    Max out ROTH IRA.
    Max out ROTH 401k
    Taxable investment account.

    I would never suggest putting any money into a conventional IRA or putting any more money into a conventional 401K beyond the match. You will pay full tax rates on the withdraws where a ROTH is 100% tax free and a taxable account is taxed at long term capital gains rate.

    Besides IRA and 401k, are there other ways we can prepare ahead of time for our retirement? Mine draws nearer by the day and I'm gradually going into panic mode

    Inherited IRA needs to be distributed after ten years as opposed to five, with there being some exceptions such as spousal beneficiaries.

    Great information and knowledge. <Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I stand to say Crypto-currency and Stock market still remains the best option for now. truth is If you stay invested and ignore the market's ups and downs, you'll make a lot of money in the long run, that’s why it’s better to trade<I stopped panicking about my BTC the very moment I started working with Marnell English last year, her confidence and skills is on a maximum level..

    Retirement is wonderful if you have two essentials — much to live on and much to live for. Invest wisely and get good returns.

    I'd like to retire with an investment worth atleast $4MILLION and I'm ready to work towards this goal, I've come across investors making as much $75,000 on a monthly basis and I'd like to know what step and guidelines I need to make better profit

    I was able to build a big income stream investing with Mrs Katherine Haley. You’ve changed my whole life, Thanks so much

    keep up with the good videos.

    Dividends

  13. Victor Sanchez

    So, if I have dividend stocks in my roth ira, can I meet my rmd by selling stocks and re-buying them into a taxable account?

  14. Chris

    Who tf here can add 12K per year to their IRA…….Please tell me

  15. Fred Atlas

    It all sounds very complicated in the US

    Retiring soon, I and my husbands positions are depleted. I am still making my employers match but I don’t want to sell since I missed out on the big sell off and wouldn’t want to wait on the sidelines, just confused as to what to continue doing.

  17. Michael Curtis

    Regarding waiting till the last minute to contribute, it's not necessarily a mistake if you're close to the income limit and anticipate possibly going over the limit due to a promotion or new job. I've heard of this happening to people and it's not an easy thing to fix after the fact. Bottom line, if you're close to the income limit for contributing, you're better off waiting to see what your income will actually be at the end of the year before contributing.

    Yes, mistakes are teaching opportunities.

  19. jdgolf499

    Great to talk about naming a beneficiary, however, there is another thing I NEVER hear people talk about. With an IRA, it is an INDIVIDUAL retirement account. If you are in retirement and drwing on that money, if you don't have a power of attorney, or some other mechanism, if something were to happen to the owner of the IRA, short of death, noone else could access the money.

  20. Randolph H

    True, but still good to max out the match. Often can do partial trustee to trustee transfers to move it to an IRA where you have a full menu of options

  21. Gardener Earth Guy

    Many company 401k plans offer limited funds which actually invest in the company you work for.

    That match may be taken away through the value of the funds going short.

    It's never good to catch a falling knife.

    Creativity and financial insights! Everything to like.

  23. Chris Invests

    Have you made any of these mistakes?

    Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher that taught me a lesson at 18. That lesson was: for every purchase you make, you can't buy something else. Varied sources of income is wise and especially living within your means. Think about taxes and how you get your income. I made $72k combined net last year and paid no Federal taxes.
