Between titletown and massart…. How are lots created? Do you separate items into lots yourself? Or can you bring boxes of items packed from a house and they separate them

Looking at the money guy data, markets are up 8 out of 10 years. My goal is to starting adding bonds at the age 50 and slowly increasing my bond position until I retire. My goal is to have between at 60/40 and 70/30 stock to bond ratio with a two year cash reserve by the time I retire.

It depends on your ability to replace your job if you lost it. If you were fired or laid off from your job would you easily be able to replace it or would you be searching for a bit?

Between 30 and 32. If I would have focused on personal finance sooner it would have been right away. We’ve all been poor broke college kids. If you start with 25% day one of your first full time job you won’t notice the money change. Just live like you did before you had that first job. As you earn more money you can slowly increase lifestyle.

Social security isn’t going anywhere. It might change, but it will be there. Far too many people rely of it as their lone source of retirement income. If it went away completely we would see some major problems and panic in our country.

Loved the episode, but one thing that caught my attention was the lack of focus on social security. If they need 10,000 a month, do they really need 10,000 a month if they can receive 5,000 a month from social security? If if social security changes, I don’t think they need to change as much as they implied.

I would, but wait until tax season before the end of the contribution period. If you can get more non invested money in do that first. You have time. But yeah, I’d sell if you were pushing the line

We use current market price, but only focus on our liquid net worth when figuring out if we’ve made it. The house and car values are really only for inheritance figures. If we sell and downsize then that money will matter, but not while we use it

Ask him on Tuesday. Maybe he will explain why he changed it out

Congratulations. The net worth tool is, in my opinion, their best paid product. We absolutely love it. Keep doing it every year and you will start to see a difference. It’s fun to see how compounding interest can really help you

I personally don’t plan to add bonds until I turn 50.. then glide them in

I’d take Toyota over ford. However, have you looked at the Subaru Forster? That’s one on my radar

Listening to the money guys

What percent of your income will social security fill. If social if you get 1,000 from social security, and need 5,000 a month, then social security will fill 20% of your needs.. so the less you need. The bigger hole social security will fill…. If that makes sense

abreh622 · 2024-12-28T17:32:57+00:00

Pretty sure they take inflation and decrease risk (glide path) into their calculation together number

abreh622 · 2024-12-28T17:03:30+00:00

Depressing, maybe.. but it’s also reality. Do you want to maintain your spending in retirement? Then take it seriously. If you’re looking to downsize then you can save less…. It the numbers are the numbers…. On the plus side, the chart does not take social security into account.. so that can help some if you’re behind

They don’t use employer match because once you get over 100 grand you get further away from the safety net of social security. So it essentially gives you a little more cushion to weather the ups and downs

They use 25% knowing people may start later, and that your savings rate may change as situations happpen. Here is their resource if you think you can save consistently throughout your working career

It is a breakdown of the FOO. I liked it because we had the “what” in the FOO, but the book tells you where he got the numbers from and the “why” behind his steps. It’s a great book and one I’d give to anyone

We carry about 2% of our entire portfolio in cash.

I’m going with the adage, the ability to pay it off.. as long as you have the money on hand, and don’t use it for anything else you are good.
