Yup - trying to max my earnings right now, will be looking into bonds for my next couple contributions.

Damn

Looks like you are 100% stock
Why don’t you get any bonds?
20 years left to go
I would start doing at least 10-20% bonds
Start reducing your risk

I got 30 mores to go
Plan going working till 60
I have a 10% in bond

Its nice

Decided I'm going to finish the basement.  Since the sunroom is not a DIY job.  Been learning a lot on YouTube.

Yep - live modestly and you'll be fine.  If you want to live like a king, move to Laos.   

unless you make plentiful and enough to where you can comfortably afford to put money into a IRA or Roth...folks.. .401k and social security is good enough once you retire....just don't have more kids than you can afford to have...haha and don't develope bad habits when you retire...lols

Hey mang.. Apple is coming out with an apple car. That might just take them straight up. Keep it in there.

If they do, stock will go off the roof!

Dude this thread is hilarious.   

Looks like you pissed someone off.   

For everyone, you should do your own investigation and not follow one person's advice on the Internet.  If you lost money, take it as a hard lesson learned and move on.

No problem, this is my long-term hold anyways.  So it's all good, just hate to see it go down.
Don't want to stock up now, going to diversify.  Got too much on Apple already.

Nope my fund didn't get in on time.  I max my 2018 end of Dec.  Then sent over some for 2019, but it didn't settle until after Jan 2.

Have you driven a dual clutch before?  You can drive it like a manual.  Best of both worlds.

Automotive Discussion / Re: Nice MkIV Supra and it's a manual too

« on: January 05, 2019, 08:40:50 AM »

The only way to keep its value is LOW mileage and NO mods.   Most Supras out there are hella modded and mileage is high so you are not going to fetch these top dollars.

Collectors only want unmolested, low mileage, near perfect cars.
