    I just got fired, and I'm 39 years old. Now that I have 425K saved for an early retirement at age 50, 10K in an HSA, and a property that could yield an extra 200K, what possibilities do I have for a steady stream of income?

      It’s reasonable to consider getting a financial advisor now, but delaying retirement might be a wiser choice

      Is it time for a career shift or should I consolidate my investments into a single account? If I go for the latter, how do I do it right, and what could be the drawbacks? Plus, with a $200K property sale on the horizon, should I combine my investments or diversify them across different markets?

      These are crucial questions for a financial planner. I met mine at a NYSE summit, and with her help, my wife and I reallocated our $1.7M portfolio between a traditional IRA and a brokerage account. She’s been making investments with our approval and has helped us recover twice our losses. We’re holding steady and carefully navigating more markets

    I also save all my winnings and spend none of them. I invest them and I allow myself to spend the Dividend of a stock or Coupon of a Bond. Also 30% of my poker winnings are in physical Gold and Silver which returned 30% last year.

    Great video!!! Maybe more of these types of videos once a month (or a few times a year). I know the info is basically the same, but you could talk about your progress towards milestones you're trying to achieve (in percentage form so you don't have to reveal actual numbers if you don't want to).

    Love this!
    Partly cause I like to be nosey and see how you are going (and compare it against myself), and partly cause I think hearing other people’s plans can only help, when it comes to developing your own plans.
    Great that you’re aware of the capital gains tax bill that will be coming if you have a large transfer.
    Interested to know what assumption you’ve made between years 5 and 6 that your outside contribution jumps from $4k to $11k.
    One item I did find interesting is your analysis on the dividend rate growth, and the contrasting rates between the three options. Historically, I’ve always assumed that different company or fund types will generally maintain a similar dividend rate, and the growth of the dividend comes from the underlying stock price movements, rather than the company specifically electing to increase their dividend percentage. Interesting concept and I’ll have to give it a bit more thought myself.
    Anyway, this comment is getting long.
    Love what you’re doing, love that you’re willing to share your thoughts and put your plans out there for all to see. Keep it coming!

    One way to mitigate the tax bill would be to hold some assets in a Roth IRA -- however, I know you're opposed to that.

      If I had an IRA, I might have enough money to retire at age 45, but most of it is in the IRA. Then to withdraw it, I'd need to pay taxes and a penalty for early withdrawal.

    I did some very similar math when I planned out the wife and I's retirement. I landed on S&P500 ETFs mostly because I get some pretty significant bonuses with Bank of America/Merril for keeping my investments with them rather than vanguard, fidelity, etc. 5.25% credit card rewards on chosen category and 1.75% on any other category being the big one. I am curious what your plans for housing are in retirement when presumably you wouldn't be getting the cheap Vegas weekday rates as you do now. Do you still plan to be nomadic?

    If you continue to deal, I wonder if you could get some sort of W9 arrangement. No clue about your personal situation but you could in theory, get a solo 401k and put 100% of your earnings into that and only pay self employment tax minus "business" expenses and continue to live off your poker bankroll. Not tax advice or anything like that, just a thought. You may already have something like this in place given that you are essentially self employed.

    • @cpataxpro
      @cpataxpro 17 минут назад

      Good thoughts, but his FICA tax (self-employment tax) would double from the rate he pays as an employee (from 7.65% up to 15.3%). Also, he can already shelter 100% of that employee income using either a traditional or Roth IRA, and may also allow for a Saver's Credit.

      In Stage 2? I'm aware Stage 2 is massively dependent on 1 or 2 stocks having that high yield, reliable dividend for a long time. I'm not a fan of the 4% rule though, or any method that means decreasing share quantity. You can outlive your shares.

    I used to think dividends were cool, but then I started actually investing. Aside from AT&T dividend stock suck even ATT is too high now and probably about to drop. If you really wanna make money sell options. If you learned properly you’d quit poker…. I did, I make way more money

    • @cpataxpro
      @cpataxpro 8 минут назад

      Careful. Selling options is basically gambling (high reward - high risk), not investing. In addition, there are a multitude of Dividend All-Star mutual funds and low-cost ETFs available to protect against stock-specific risk (such as AT&T alone). Just my opinion, you do what works best for you, since everyone has there own personal risk-tolerance level. 👍🏻
