QUESTION 1
Question about Baby Step 3. If you OWN an asset (gold, RV, motorcycle, etc) and even if you had to “fire sale” it you could still make 10-20K, can you count that toward BS3? Or does it all have to be CASH?
QUESTION 2
My experience has been 401K’s don’t have as much investment opportunities for growth that you have with an IRA (Traditional or Roth) through Fidelity or Vanguard. If a couple exceeds the AGI max income in a given year, is there any other tax friendly place to invest for retirement and/or a way to reduce taxable income?
QUESTION 3
Just opened a Roth IRA yesterday with fidelity and maxed out contributions for 2021 & 2022. Any recommendations on mutual funds I should invest in? What are some favorites
QUESTION 4
Question for everyone: Is it better to fund your roth ira all at once (one $6K lump sum) or fund it with regular, smaller payments throughout the year? Does it even matter? Assuming you have the funds on hand to do a lump sum contribution, of course.
