    As a late 30s who has recently wiggled out of poverty, just paid off debt, less than 50k in savings, no home, I see this as a win.

      Congrats. This is an absolute win. Most Americans cannot cover a $1000 emergency. You're in a situation to likely never have to go into debt to cover needs when life happens. All you have to do now is keep your foot on the gas. You can't rest on your laurels because you're out of debt and have some emergency savings. Keep living frugally and start putting that money that you were putting towards debt into a tax-advantaged/employer sponsored retirement plan. As you get raises, keep raising the amount you put towards retirement until you max out a 401k/IRA. Allow yourself a LITTLE bit of comfort creep, because it's important to enjoy life as you live it, but do what you can to stave off full-on lifestyle creep. Congrats, though. You're killing it compared to most.

    Super thankful to have found you guys last year. Wife and I were always good savers, but we were operating under a lot of Ramsey financial advice/ our family's advice which was leaving a lot of dollars on the table. (paying down our 3% mortgage at age 26 doesn't make a whole lot of sense when we weren't even funding our Roth IRAs). Definitely following Foo now, thanks for all the financial advice.

    The Roth dollar cost average question went over their heads. You can contribute all at once and wait to actually invest the funds into the market, which is what Connie asked about. I think if it was a significant portion of their net worth, dollar cost averaging would be good otherwise just invest all at once for simplicity 36:00

      It’s a good idea to look for a fiduciary who has a legal obligation to work in your best interest and can’t recommend products or services just because they’ll receive a financial kickback for doing so. I and my spouse work with a retirement planner, Monica Mary Strigle an advisor we met in NY, referred by Danielle Dimartino Booth in an interview. Under her guidance, we split our investments, traditional IRA and the individual brokerage account where she copies her moves on our account from her master. We have been up by 74% precisely in the past year She rebalanced again when the year began, we still hold cash and are cautious with how much we let into the market at this point.

    If you're starting at 0 at age 37, to replace 60% of your income at retirement you'd need to save and invest 15% of your income (assuming 10% average returns, 3% inflation, retirement age of 67). I'd still save 25% if you can so you have a safety margin in case of a rough economy and lower growth, but retirement is still within reach.

    • @cody5596

    2. Plan also allows for in-plan conversions / in-service rollovers

      @EvilGenius007 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Need to insert at 41:00 a take of Bo saying "And then if your retirement plan provider allows for either in-plan conversions or in-service rollovers you can convert those assets as Roth dollars or roll them into a Roth account, without any additional tax consequences today because you've already paid income tax on that money so in the future, as with all Roth assets, instead of being taxed on the gains your withdraws will tax free."

    I had initially planned to retire at 62, work part-time, and save money, but the impact of high prices on various goods and services has significantly disrupted my retirement plan. I'm worried about whether those who experienced the 2008 financial crisis had it easier than I currently am. The volatility of the stock market is a concern as my income has decreased, and I fear that I won't be able to contribute as much as before, potentially jeopardizing my retirement savings.

      matched money is 100% ROI. I'm no finance expert, but if I were you I'd immediately start maximizing that match. If you can cut back a bit on lifestyle and get that debt paid off you're golden. 2.5% home loan is great especially if you're experiencing appreciation. If that appreciation is above 2.5% (my market is far above that) then you're essentially making money off the leverage your home loan created.

    HOW DO I CATCH UP?
    1. Increase net income to increase net worth - this could mean reducing operating expenses, not increasing revenue (ie. my mom once took a 2nd job but then realized that the family costs went up)
    2. Increase personal value and skill - Jobs will come and go; but your attitude, work ethic, and skill set stays with you.
    3. Increase positive communication - if married, your spouse is your most valuable treasure and business partner - (ie. My wife keeps me on track with what's important and motivated to achieve our goals
    4. Increase productive work communication - often increasing hours or position at an existing job is more sustainable when done properly (ie. More than once, I have seen people miss out on a 25% raise because they are rushing to a 3-4hr 2nd job.
    5. Increase giving lifestyle - neighborhood giving and bartering has been discounted over the last 3-5 decades, but there is something upliftingly beautiful about people that work together (ie. Growing up we often had at least one neighbour we could ask for some sugar, eggs, etc. We in turn would help mow, rake, or shovel when needed

    With stock market positive 8.5yrs out of ten, does it really make sense to "go conservative" (more bonds, less stocks) until you are VERY close to retirement?

      Nope. I would keep 80% in the S&P. 10% - 15% in an HYSA (so you can pull from here if the market drops, while waiting for the eventual recovery). 5-10% in cash (this is where you would draw from for your yearly needs).

      Normally yeah I'd stick with close to 100% equities/ real estate until you're within about 10 years of retirement or less, but with interest rates being what they are now and likely to drop in the next few years bonds aren't looking too bad...

      Agree. First they should talk about what a student loan means for your financial life, talk about compounding interest and how that spirals. It would be great to talk about the different repayment options and how your tax filing status impacts your ability to get on certain plans. It would be good to look at different earning brackets within each decade of age and how to set a budget to pay down the balance while also investing.

      While I agree that could be useful to some people, I’ve also observed that they don’t talk much about budgeting. They have talked about when to payoff a student loan (when is it considered high or low interest debt for the FOO). Made this comment before seeing the whole video; this is what they always say (aside from the classic rule of limiting loans to the first year excepted income).

      @@chemquests Perhaps not budgeting per se, but prioritization, maybe. For example, if you are over 40 with a student loan at 6% but don't have much in your 401k and your employer has a generous match, they'll tell probably tell you to take the match. BUT we know that if we do one of the income-based repayment plans, we're paying less than the accruing interest each month. At the end there will be a gigantic tax b0mb at the end. How do we plan for that?
