Yes. Everyone should have one if their income allows them.
It's tax free money in retirement, which will help offset taxable income in retirement drawn from IRAs/401ks. Even if you could only invest a few hundred dollars per year, it's absolutely worth it. |

That's what I thought I've been reading up on it alot since the Gamestop stuff. My friend keeps trying to get me on this Acorn thing. Dont know much about it seems kinda gimmicky figured the smart money would be to tie up into something like a ROTH instead.

Oh I do and have been.
I just know that not everyone can afford that. There's nothing wrong with even a few hundred dollars per year, especially if you're young. A ROTH IRA is probably the most valuable investment vehicle for middle class earners. You should, however, contribute first to your 401k to get your full employer match (free money). After that, people should look to fund a ROTH. |

I was just looking at my ROTH and I have a mutual fund with T Rowe Price that made 50% in the past year. I thought that was ****ing awesome for passive investing.

Financial lifestyle should be a mandatory class in HIGH SCHOOL. Our educational system is a failure.

I find that sad. I've learned all on my own but it shouldn't be that way. Does your employer offer a 401k? Many are also offering ROTH 401ks now. Or will you be looking to set this up yourself? |

Day trading is part of investing as well, doesn't mean everyone on here does it, I'm just dabbling with my stimulus money from the Govt. with that. Play money i call it. |

I've gotten a late start on supplemental retirement savings and have already banked a lot. I shudder to think how much I would have if I had started saving at 22 rather than in my 30s.
