Am 23 making 80k a year with 200k saved up in investments in project management. Is it bad that I feel like I’m not doing enough?

Stay focused. Investments can go away and so can a great salary. A brilliant person told me, "if you have an abundance, invest in real assets". Own your home out right, etc. Whatever led you to be in your position, thank for it God. Recognize others aren't as fortunate. Make the most of your opportunities to be a giver, it will grow you in character and spirit.

If you feel like you have more to give - start a hobby or side hustle that you are passionate about or continued education in new areas.

25, 150k/year, ~160k NW. I need to invest more / diversify at this point tho. I also feel like it's not enough... I honestly feel like I'd need to make $300k to feel relaxed. And with 10x the NW.

I come from a poor immigrant family, so it's not just myself I'm saving up for.

My partner and I are in the process of buying a PHEV that qualifies for the full non-refundable federal tax credit. We will both owe taxes in excess of the current $7,500 cap (will see if that increases with the new budget bill). If we both own the car (i.e. both names on the title), how do we manage filing for the tax credit when filing separately? Do we just pick one of us to file? Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
