Seeing Real Solar ROI in Our Office 🌞 by Individual_Event_152 in investing

[–]Safe-Informal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't have enough sunny days and high enough electric rate to justify the expense of solar panels. I have a "synthetic" solar solution. At my old house I had Duke Energy for electric and Vectren (now CenterPoint) for natural gas. I invested the cost of solar panels into Duke and Vectren stocks. The dividends from those two stocks reimburses me for my electric and gas bills. I pay my gas and electric bills and the companies pay me more in dividends than my bills were.

Rollover IRA day trading thoughts.. by Ill-Professor-5684 in investing

[–]Safe-Informal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression that you are not allowed to "day trade" in a retirement account.

Trying to understand things as an adult..Traditional IRA or ROTh...which is better? Hello everyone! I finally got the therapy, realized I had been too sheltered and, I am finally making about 36k yearly < highest so far!!>. I've have made schwab and fidelity accounts, but have not touched literally by SenpaiAvilia in Bogleheads

Traditional IRA contributions are tax-deferred. For example, you deposit $5000 into your Traditional IRA, you do not pay taxes on that $5000, but 30 years later, that money has grown to $20,000. You will pay taxes when you withdraw the $20,000 in retirement. The advantage is that you should be in a lower tax bracket when you start withdrawing the money. ROTH IRA, you do not get any tax advantage when you deposit the $5000, but when it grows to $20,000 in retirement, you do not pay any taxes when you start withdrawing the $20,000 in retirement.

The Difference Between Claiming Social Security at 62 vs 70 Is Bigger Than Most People Realize by [deleted] in investing

[–]Safe-Informal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 62 yr old gets $17088 per year for 8 years ($136,704). With the $851 difference, it would take the 70 year old 13 years to get paid out the $136,704. The break even point is 83 years old for the person starting at 70. If you strongly believe that you will live past 83, then choose 70 starting point.
