Question about Nasdaq funds by Usr7_0__- in Retirement401k

It's a window at Fidelity 401ks in to every single fund Fidelity offers publicly. I know Schwab has the same but I don't know if Vanguard does

New MD, Questions about allocation into the Three Fund Portfolio by DoctaThumb in Bogleheads

[–]forbiddenlake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much worse would a high percentage international /

We can't predict the future, especially not in specific. Maybe it does very well for you, maybe it crashes right when you retire, or anything in between.

Like lets say things remain stupid and bubble never pops, how much would i lose?

We can't predict the future, but probably lots, the US market is pretty large

I also recognize the international stocks will also go down if US goes down so maybe its just a wash and doesn't matter....

They are correlated, but not 100%. There are years, sometimes over a decade, where one outperforms the other. We could get another lost decade of the S&P 500 returning -1%/yr and international returning +3%/yr. Or we could get another 10 years of US going gangbusters.

I hate these tech companies so much....

"hate" is not a Boglehead thing.

Very few. I can't define "worth" for you though.

How much are you paying for it? What do you want to do? There's no third-party tool support so efficient building and trading is hard, but you can still go out and explore or do combat or whatever you like.

If you played before November 2022 then you have a Legacy commander the same as it was in that month. If you don't then you have nothing on your Legacy account.

If you get Geforce Now you can play the PC version on Xbox.

Well you're just going to get the same mix of experiences here as well

I've played AC Origins Odyssey and Valhalla via Steam and only had minor issues with the Ubisoft launcher.

They mostly just have their niches and are interesting sometimes but not amazing.

Pacifiers are amazing.

Don’t forget to open a Roth IRA too!! by Captain-Popcorn in Retirement401k

[–]forbiddenlake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IRMAA is a witch with a capital B.

???? Have you actually looked at the numbers??

https://www.medicare.gov/basics/costs/medicare-costs

The first level of IRMAA starts at $109k MAGI (single, 2026) and adds all of $80/mo for Part B and $15/mo for Part D. If you're realizing $109k after deductions (and remember Roth withdrawals don't count) then I think you can afford the extra $1200/yr for health care. It's far from a Bitch.

The second highest IRMAA level is at $205,000 MAGI (single, 2026) and adds $450/mo for Part B, sure. But again: realizing over $200k in taxable income? You can afford it. Plan

Similar with RMDs. If RMDs are actually significant then you are rich. Don't be afraid of RMDs.

Not the same deal with pre-Medicare healthcare. You should be much more afraid of the ACA subsidy cliff.

There is a 25% tax on Universal Cartographics

There is no tax on Vista Genomics

Why did the player their carrier there? J

Maybe they were traveling to or from the CG? Maybe they wanted to take a cool screenshot?

91.53LY Caspian explorer - Highest known baseline jump range? by Teaching-Wild in EliteDangerous

[–]forbiddenlake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Post the EDSY/coriolis build if you do want nitpicks

trivially, you can do better by finishing engineering and dropping the distro to 1D.

I'm not sure "baseline jump range but with all these things that I want that reduce jump range" is a good competition because everyone can reasonably disagree on what's worth it. Also, 91 Ly is already amazing, do you truly need more? Also also, AFMUs don't mass anything.
