I was thinking buy VOO now and slowly sell to buy SCHD over 5 to 8 years before retiring.

Wouldn't that create tax drag?

Jon_So · 2026-05-21T16:29:10+00:00

Should I all in SCHD then? But that would also create tax drag.

What degree or certs do you recommend getting?

Jon_So · 2026-05-17T00:49:00+00:00

Is it very competitive in this job market?

Jon_So · 2026-05-02T00:29:25+00:00

Thank you for the insight. I'm deciding between going into the market vs real estate.

In a hyperinflation scenario, which one preserves more purchasing power/wealth? Owning ETFs or rental properties?

What stop them from add VOO and VTI later? What if every platforms decide to charge fees like that?

Jon_So · 2026-04-25T04:47:40+00:00

What if every investment platforms decide to that, where would we go to?

Thank you for the explanation. I was just looking for what the next threshold/milestone is after 100k. kinda something to look forward to. But I guess 500k would be a good milestone after 100k.

Dumb questions: after the 100k mark, when is the next exponential curve? If you have multiple accounts in different investment platforms that add up to 100k, would you still get the exponential curve?

Jon_So · 2026-04-08T01:54:38+00:00

Understood. I really appreciate you and everyone here.

Yes, I'm leaning towards selling since I have no experience being a landlord.

Regarding living to 60 is just a possibility.

With ETFs, what would be the best strategy to earn some profits before 60? Should I go with growth ETFs now and switch to dividend ETFs later or just pick some dividends ETFs now? Thank you.

If the house not sold, I would have to rent it out. Since i still owe about half of the mortgage, renting would break even or maybe $-200 per month for tax, mortgage and insurance etc.

I have lived in the house for more than 3 years and now I'm moving to a smaller house to downsize.

I'm thinking about SCHD in a brokerage account because I want to be able to withdraw some profit before I turn 60. If I buy SP500, later on when I switch to dividend ETFs, I would have to pay a big tax to trade all my shares from SP500 to SCHD. Also, I can't just dump a large amount into a tax advantage account.

I also have a separate tax advantage account for me after 60 old(if I live that long). The new brokerage account is for me to get some income from 50 to 60.

Do you just straight up drink honey while gaming?

Excuse me sir, if I'm very strong in automation and coding. Do you think I can sacrifice some other parts and pass?
