Never gamble on a Roth IRA account: buy VOO consistently and forget about it

In all fairness, You can gamble in an IRA. You just have to make sure you have a Roth 401k, and a Roth IRA (don't gamble in both). lol

Slightly lower operating expenses than SPY by like .01 or something like that

Buffett didn't get rich by buying VOO. But it probably would help to get companies that have earnings and are undervalued. OP likely had their Roth in straight up memestocks bought at the top. At least they did it while the Roth was so small instead of blowing a few hundred thousand or something.

If you think 99.99% of us can invest like Buffett, then you’re probably wrong

I have two investment accounts: 401k for retirement that I don't touch and a personal account for pretending I'm Warren buffet.

Im rlly regarded so I have a 401k, roth, and an individual account where I buy n forget.

But I go crazy dumb stupid in another individual account. I have to keep this 3:1 ratio or I'd be on the streets with how my option plays have been going

Jesus Christ dude. That’s supposed to last you until 65. You hardly lasted a year. Get your shit together and stop investing in high beta stocks.

OP is definitely a high beta tho

Warren Buffett quote

“It is true that a very important principle in investing is you don’t have to make it back the way you lost it... in fact, it’s usually a mistake to make, try and make it back the way that you lost it.”

A good principle to remember

OPs better off buying Robux for fiat and hoping the value of Robux goes up.

Bro, your roth ira suppose to be your safety net. Why are you gambling with your retirement found? Stick with index funds and nothing else.

Idk why ppl are freaking out. 401k is don’t touch. Roth is a good way to gamble tax free. Just switch to trading SPXL SPXS, 3x bull bear ETFs. When you feel confident but a single SPY call or put like 1 week out for a couple hundred bucks and sell after a day. You’ll get it back np

Isn't this the reason for the ROTH in the first place? Hedge against raising taxes on large amounts of money so you pay in a bunch while you're in the lower tax brackets so when you retire you don't get Uncle Sam giving you a proctology exam with his hands on your shoulders.

I'm with you on the not gambling part. It's the "All things considered the same" bit which is hardly the case when talking retirement plans.

My retirement plan is in an index fund with deposits each paycheck and if I feel like gambling I just go mess with crypto for a little bit and lose it there instead of with stocks.

Literally just put everything on VOO and live your life. You will outpace all the glue eaters here

Explosive-Space-Mod t1_j250m4r wrote

Some glue eaters here will have more maximum income but also, like most lottery winners, will spend or lose it all extremely quickly.

I would wheel INTC. Collect dividend and cc premium tax free. Safe investment for years. Low PE, big expansion coming, already severely beaten down.

Depending on how old you are, buy stocks that are riskier/safer. If you're in your 20s or early 30s a loss like that is no big deal. You've got years to make it back. Pick stocks that are a wee riskier and have potential to give higher returns. As you pass your 30s tho, you want to go more towards the safer slow movers like VOO or SPY etc. Etfs with lower risk so you don't have to worry about your retirement as much and you can switch the riskier gainers into safer slow movers

Since I’m a degenerate at heart I do 70% VTI & 30% AVUV to satisfy my gambling needs.
