I am targeting to reach $1M capital accumulation with in next 2 years and wanted to generate 10% ROI annually (average over 10 year duration) on that $1M. What would be your portfolio allocation and investment strategy to achieve this?

What P1 said is generally good advice on investing.

But ....a 10% annualized return is possibly unlikely. The broad stock market has had real (after inflation) return of about 7.5% over the last century.

100% US Equities in a broad index fund would give the highest success rate. SCHB, VTI, etc.

If you wanted to juice the returns and are ok with more volatility you could add a tech or small cap low cost index fund as well.

No fixed income, no bonds.

Are you looking for dividend income to live on, or 10% annualized return on the portfolio (or both)?

Some closed end strategies like PIMCO Income Strategy Fund (PFL), Guggenheim Strategic Opportunities Fund (GOF) and Clough Global Opportunities Fund (GLO) could produce this dividend income for you while seeing the underlying portfolio appreciate as well, but the tax treatment could be unpredictable if these are not qualified assets.

Are you looking to live on the dividend income at $100k a year? Happy to talk further via phone or zoom.

I am looking to live off dividend incomes - any dividend stocks you’d recommend that are tax efficient?

You could prob do that in real estate with leverage, but the trade off would be your invested in 1 or 2 properties rather than the whole market like Itot or vti…. Why 10%?

Nothing specific. I thought 10% is not too conservative or too aggressive. Somewhere in the middle

I just found out that I am no longer eligible for any of the income driven repayment plans and my monthly federal loan payment is increasing to $1400 a month and will increase on a yearly basis up to $2400. That is my cheapest option. However, if I refinance with a private lender to a lower interest rate, it will be $2k a month for 15 years and I’ll save like $120k in interest over the life of the loan. Has anyone refinanced their fed loans with a private lender? Should I do it?
