Don’t slam the door shut once the cow is already out of the barn. That’s too late.

Question for you smart guys…. They say that gold and silver is a hedge against inflation…. If inflation is going up, why is gold and silver going down?? I don’t understand the market at all.

Government bonds. Joking.
But no joke…when the Fed craps the bed the Gubernment will force banks to have major bond holdings to get loaned money. Get in front and skim somehow.

We have some in Mutual funds with mine in more aggressive funds/stocks and the wife's in more stable funds/stocks. The large portion of our retirement is in annuities!

But move where????

But move where????

Someone one here suggested I bonds from the Treasury the other day.

I bought $1k and plan on adding some here and there.
(just added another $50.00)

From their site (after log in)-

Savings Bond Rates:
Bonds issued May-October 2022
Series EE - 0.10 % *
Series I - 9.62 %


9.62%, it moves from what I've read - and will have to hold over 1 year to pull without penalty and if under 5 "There is a 3-month interest penalty if you cash an EE or I Bond within the first five years from its issue date.".

I ain't saying this is the way to go, but don't see how it can "hurt".

Saw an article a couple weeks ago that tracked all of one of the TV investor guy's advice over several years. If you listened and did what he said to do you underperformed every single time.

I bought it during Covid in the 20’s. It’s in the 90’s now. I went all in. It was scary. But, I sure feel good about retiring in five years now

Don't need to study anything.

Put about 6% of your yearly income into a S&P Index fund and let it grow. As you get closer to retirement 5 years or so out start moving 5 to 10% percent a year into cash balance or some other type of safer investment until you get about 1 to 2 years away and then have 70 to 80% in something safe.

The advice above is fool proof. It isn't flashy or the cool thing, but if you do this for 35 to 40 years you will retire a millionaire.

The stock market along with compound interest is a great thing! You can never make up time so start early!

I’ll add, also invest into S&P weekly or monthly, doing a cost average.

Haven’t lost a penny since I moved into an MIP class 2 temporarily.
