Thanks man. And yeah I work in entry level corporate finance and do decently well. Although I have a buddy that’s my age and is a software developer and he makes me feel bad about my careers choice lmao
Funny because I'm trying to break out of Networking and into Cyber Security. I make $75k and put 10% +6% matching + 3% RAP into my 401k. On my own I put $40 a month into high yield savings for my sons college plus half his birthday/holiday money goes into there and then I invest in dividend stocks on the side but only $100 a month. Can't afford any more than that but I'm thinking of dropping my 401k by 4% and moving that over to my div portfolio.
I just met my 401K match for the year because I’ve been going hot and heavy with that this year, so I’m dropping that to 0 for the rest of my year and maxing out my Roth then whatever is left is going to a divvy portfolio
I already reached the company match, so now it’s just untaxed dollars going into my account. That’s why my question was to keep putting in unmatched dollars into the 401K or work on my Roth instead
Mainly VTI and SPLG with higher dividend ETFs mixed in (JEPI and SCHD). Low risk, high reward, I’m also 22 so I have time to be risky. DRIP on the dividends is just going to compound over time.
Robinhood is where I started a couple years ago. Easy charts and simple interface. It has its fair share of issues when it comes to lagging and days where you can’t buy or sell anything because the servers are overworked. I recently just switched over to TD Ameritrade and I think it was the best move I ever made.
Down to $6, anyone still think this thing can pop?
Bro this post was from 2 years ago
I sold today with a 11% gain. I guess it might go further up but that was enough excitement for me.
No problem!
Yall know how this goes.

If it makes you feel any better, I’m in cybersecurity and wish I went a different route, something financial

I have about 10k to invest. Am 30, good income, job security, suck at trading, looking for 1-2 year safe growth, Wells Fargo investment account?
Put 6K into a Roth IRA of your choosing with safe index funds, then the other 4K in a brokerage account of your choosing!
I would definitely prioritize the 401k match over the Roth IRA (think about it, you can't beat the rate of return of the match).

Just getting into the game. Friend recommended Robinhood. Is it a good starting point or is there something better ?
