I'm getting ready to get long with a bunch of long term call options. So many beaten into the ground stocks.
Yes, I know they can get cheaper but things are getting really valuable.

I got a job offer that's going to pay me more than I've ever made in my life (I'm a few years from 40 so I guess it's about time) I figure I'll have about 10-15k I want to invest my first year. Is that a good amount? Where should I begin?

The job will likely offer you a 401K. Hopefully with a ROTH option. If they don’t or it is a traditional 401K, start a self directed ROTH IRA. Max out ROTH investment. If it is a 401K with a ROTH option I believe the max is 20,500. If you have To use a ROTH IRA the maximum is 6,000. If you can max out the Roth investment then put the rest (or max out) a traditional 401K or traditional IRA. In those funds, either buy a S&P index fund or a Target Dated Retirement Fund. Do those things first. Operate the cheapest reliable vehicle, preferably paid for with cash (**** car payments). I honestly don’t know whether to tell you to buy a home in this lending/real estate environment. I’d lean no, especially if you currently have no retirement savings. Congrats man. Make that money. |

Buehler is spot on so the only thing I'll add is that you should be saving at minimum 10% of your salary for retirement but 20% is preferable, especially if you're behind on retirement savings. But first you need an emergency fund like mentioned and you also need to be saving for a new car, so it's ok to start on the lower end of the retirement savings spectrum, but once those are accomplished you'll need to ramp up your amount. With every raise, add 1-2% to your retirement savings percentage. |
