Awesome thank you!

For my IRA I put everything in VFTAX. Since I can’t do that on my 401(k), I put things into a general stock market fund. I estimate that a few percentage points of my retirement assets will not have come from Halal means, and I do not plan to use those assets

Has anyone reevaluated their retirement methods after a life-altering experience? I used to invest a lot more ($5k or so a month), but after losing one of my parents last year (mid-50s), I’ve wondered if it’s better to just enjoy life as we are living it. So, I started investing a lot less. But I always see people on here talking about all of these retirement schemes (backdoor Roth, mega-backdoor Roth, etc.) and I’m wondering if there’s a happy middle ground somewhere.

I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

Is bank interest riba?

I have been researching into this these days and there is literature that shares how lending worked in pre-Islamic Arabia.

Subsequently ever year the loan wasn't paid it was doubled from the previous year.
