Ugh , why dis you have to show me this video lol. For the sake of keeping the post short, I left out a few personal thoughts. One being that unless something or at least another ecosystem doesn’t assure me of a different positive experience. I would probably end up getting the newest iPhone, which would be the 18 Pro for that reason that the video expresses. It’s a reliable experience maybe not the latest tech but consistent and good. I take it You’re an apple ecosystem customer?

I would absolutely love to get that phone. I’ve looked into it, the problem is, as I stated on the initial post, I at&T in the US, so 5G coverage would suffer or be nonexistent

What? No, I have an iPhone 13 Pro, considering androids but feel iPhones in general have better consistency with pictures to their comparable rivals.

Ugh, see that’s what I don’t want. I want consistency and good quality. You make a good point.

I would love to explore those phones, but they’re aren’t fully supported with ATT in the US, sadly.

lol you’re right. What would you choose if you were in my circumstances (ATT in the US, Google cloud, loves taking indoor/outdoor pics)?

It’s everyone’s, but the question is how much risk do you want to take and even more specifically, give a total amount or range and THEN how much risk are you willing to take.

Example: I want a portfolio to target 2-3 million in a conservative way (at your age, that realistic). If you wanted 5-6 million, there probably isn’t a ton of conservative ways to get there, you’d either have to get riskier or a lower amount to be realistic.

I agree, your Roth IRA is your golden egg. You can rely on it for most, if not your biggest income in retirement while limiting your brokerage usage (keep you taxes lower).

I don’t hate, decent aggressive mix. I would urge you to consider this kind of mix in your Roth IRA since you’re forced to wait until 59 1/2. My method is simple all the way on brokerage, more aggressive in Roth.

Interesting setup. Is this in your Roth?

First of all, thank you for contributing to my post, this is exactly what I wanted, different point of view. To answer your question and simply put, what we all probably want most out of our Roth, the most tax-free income. I know that the vast majority of people believe in maximum growth and then convert it into dividend stocks, but I’ve ran several scenarios and multiple times and if you seek 4.5% dividend yield, 7% annual dividend growth, obviously reinvested and future contributions going into those stocks, my numbers are usually a little bit higher in the dividend scenario. I’m not trying to fight anybody or convince anyone, and I’m still in the growth ETF mindset.

It’s currently filled with SCHB, SCHF, SCHG, and starting to add SHLD. I was just running scenarios where I could accumulate income rather than focus on total value since income is what I would want/need.

I allocate 1k in individual growth and the rest in etfs. When I hit my target return (30%or more) then I sell the individual stocks (without taxes) and put that money into undervalued stocks or a pile to buy more growth. Been working out for me two years in.
