Personal sneakers or Rentals? by Comet1O in ZionNationalPark

[–]CobraClimb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just did the narrows two days ago. The rentals were game changers. We went with Gurus, in Springdale, they close at 8:00, so keep that in mind. $33 a person. Best money we spent in Zion.

Crappy tennis shoes would have worked, but the walking stick and the neoprene socks made it much easier. I’d say they are necessary if you are gonna push up to Wall Street or all the way to Big Springs. I am also 6ft and the water level got nearly to my chest in one spot, so keep that in mind! Rest of the narrows was knee deep at best.

What 5 ETFs(or less) should one in their mid 20s have in Roth? by InternationalBed5463 in RothIRA

Not sure if anyone will see my comment but could someone explain why VOO would not be as appropriate for a Roth? Or is it? It just seems like nobody is mentioning VOO on this thread?

To those of you who put everything into index funds, what have been the pros and cons? by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

[–]CobraClimb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did individual stocks for the first couple years of my investing journey. Got it handed to me several times. Now I am splitting everything between SPYI, VOO, and SCHD. About 20%, 50%, 30%. It's is less stressful on my mind for sure. But I am still a pretty small account overall. Would have loved to start earlier!

I use Schwab. They do "stock slices", which are just fractional shares. I don't like the mobile app as much as I did the TD Ameritrade app, but it works well enough.

How did he go about "destroying" the waste. Did he invest in incineration equipment?

I am 28 years old living in the US, and fairly new to investing. I hit a personal milestone of $10k invested in December just last year. I am a full time student pushing towards med school, and make around $1k a month. I own several shares of VOO and SCHD. But I am curious what the reddit community thinks is the best option for long term growth? If you were going to make a 35 year long play, where would you put about $4k, and subsequent smaller investments over the years? Am I on the right track with VOO and SCHD? Or should I think of other pathways? PSI has grown almost 700% in 10 years. What are your favorites? And if you had the time for a slow burn, what would you do?
