Pic related is my retirement and rate of return. If I continue to put in $5,000 a year and assuming I retire at age 68... I'm 32 right now.
Would I be able to retire comfortably? Should I contribute more a year?
Any other investments I should be looking at?

>paying into a retirement fund
Just buy gold for fucks sake.

>wells fargo
willingly giving your money to a bank that has ties to every major financial fraud in the US

Yeah, I've been thinking about this. Do I literally just buy gold bars and keep it in a safe?
Is this a 401k?
>>74681866

>fuck off, you dont know how to build a portfolio.
Neither do I. Please educate me.
>>74682099
Of course not.
Not like I x5d my money 2009-2011.
But that's all just memes isn't it?
Most of the money from my consulting job goes into buying gold, and periodically I buy property in the countryside.

You'll want to keep it safer than that.

Coins are a lot easier to obtain than ingots, and you can buy them in smaller quantities. Easier to move, too.
Just don't fall for the Jewish tricks of "paper gold."
>>74682391
Thanks I'll check it out. I've always been ignorant about financial matters, I really need to start educating myself.
>>74681968
yeah sure, buy a gold bars in lego sizes
>>74682530
>paper gold
Lmao this just sounds terrible. Do you give your money to a company or back and they give tou a paper saying you have x amount in gold?
>>74682295
less risk, less interest. Depends how active you wish to be with your fund
>>74682099
have a portfolio, but isn't large right now and not too diversifies, around 10 different companies though
Whatever you can afford to put in it.It's tax free $ and you get to keep all the gains it makes,company match is free $. As young as you are,and with what you already got,it's a no brainer. You did good son.

How much is needed for a comfortable retirement?
>>74682670

And you understand. Paper gold is a fraud. Ral coins and bars only
>>74682920
That is subjective. What will your bills be? What income will you j
have?
>>74683071
Oh...
Well... I'll just keep saving and see how it pans out.
>>74681691
You can't go wrong with physical gold coins, held by you, in a secret place in your house. Gold is going to explode in price because of all the debt in the world. Big hedge funds are starting to move to gold now, the price is going up up up.

No Snorting cocaine off of hookers tits cost money. Just lay out the lifestyle you want to live,plan for it then live it. You have to plan.
>>74683262
But gold doesn't pay any dividends. What do you say about that?
>>74683462
>plan
Fuck I suck so bad at this shit. I hate planning for the future...
Do other small things for income as well
Make music, write Android apps, well things, do jobs on the weekend on Craigslist
Save that money and it will add up. I have about 15k from Android app revenue saved up

I don't have an account with Wells Fargo so I have no clue what this shows. I fucking hope that isn't liquid cash.
A 0.38% rate of return YTD is fucking abysmal. My YTD return is nearly 8 times that. My portfolio is nearly 90% domestic/foreign stock. The remaining is domestic/foreign bonds, cash, and a very small percentage is convertibles and preferred stocks.
>>74683626
Life is simple. When shit happens,you deal with it. Retirement will happen,deal with it. You know how to save,.just stretch your imagination.
>>74683893
Agree.YTD for me is 10%.I almost feel Jewish.
>>74681691
>0.38
Putting in vanguard index fund would get you a wayyy better return and I bet they 0.38 is pre commission.
What you should do is to educate yourself on financial matters /biz/ , r/investing etc will help

Learn Java if you don't know it already.
Download "Android Studio", a free program online which is very easy to use.
Look up videos on the finer details of using it but it's not hard at all once you can program what you want in your app in Java.
Advertise your app i you want to make money.
I dont know OP why dont you send me the login info for the account and i will find out for you?
