Anler Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I am not as in good of shape with my IRA. I have a measly union pension coming but I slacked off for about 10 years funding my IRA. Howeverthe wife's 401k from her last employer which she hasn't done anything with in years is kicking ass. Good for you snake, this is why we work our asses off our whole life. In hopes we can someday retire and enjoy our twilight years. And hopefully before that even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sold all of my positions and stayed in a money market, I just had a bad feeling. But I was dumb for not jumping back in when it dipped below 7,000. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Angry ginger Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 2 hours ago, f7ben said: I moved everything to money market a few months ago. I'm still up 13% for the year but I missed out on the last couple months for sure. The fact of the matter is I think it is insane to have a large part of your retirement in securities right now. The market has never been as expensive as it is right now. It is more expensive then it was prior to the market crash in 1929. I'm gonna hang on the sidelines and wait for the pending recession. Its been a hell of a run and we are due for a downturn and a correction Obviously take what I say with a grain of salt as I have a 0% track record of being correct concerning the market if your not close to retirement it really doesn't matter world was ending in 09 yet now it's up from even the highs before that. Timing the market highs is more luck than skill as is buying the lows. by dumb luck i was out of the market late 08 into 09 with my retirement because my company folded and I rolled my k over.
