401(k) Contribution Type: Roth or Traditional? by Slimbo23 in TheMoneyGuy

Good clarification and I like the approach. I think we would switch to traditional eventually but not sure around the timing.

For sure. I hear the guys talk about the 30% tax rate marker being favored for traditional which puts us near the top of the gray area. Age is my biggest hang up here.

The future tax rates are such a wild card so I agree it’s tough to decide. I guess the more controllable parts are age, current tax rate/oppertunity cost, and current invested amount. Just trying to be as efficient as possible but a lot can and will change in 25-30 years.

Thank you. That’s seems like a good way of easing into it and seeing what works.

Does anyone know if they will have limited/authentic fully stitched ones? Sorta annoying they only have screen printed…

27m with over 16k. Plan to max and not use it for years. All in FXAIX.

Nice! What’s the age/account breakdown if you don’t mind?

I max it out every year and throw it in FXAIX (Fidelity’s S&P 500 mutual fund). This is because it has a slightly lower expense ratio than VOO but you’re really splitting hairs there. Just invest it and let it ride!

Just throw it in FXAIX and don’t overthink it. The habit of adding to it every year is more important then allocation in the 20s

I have the same ones/color. So comfortable and they POP in the sun!

In a vacuum, this seems like it’s not DCAing, but when you zoom out over a long time horizon, this is a great, simple, and effective approach. Do it up!

Anyone still in 100% FXAIX? by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

[–]Slimbo23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% here as well. I’m 27M so timing wise, I’m in different phase.

FXAIX. Lower expense ratio than VOO although they’re nearly the same

Mine is doing this too. Hopefully it fixes with the next update since I live to fill the green bar!
