I have put in 0 dollars in my roth IRA this year. I am thinking of putting the max in before this year runs out ($6k). Where do you guys think I should invest it? I use Vanguard.

You actually have until tax day in 2022 to do this. So don’t rush into a decision. But I’d recommend 100% VTI for simplicity

You can invest 6k and leave it in cash before deciding which stock to buy. VTI or VOO, DCA

Naive question - can I and should I invest in VTI or VOO if I use fidelity Roth IRA?

Lot of choices. VTI or VOO would be fine or ITOT or IVV, which are the ishares versions. I would and do use FZROX as mentioned above, or FSKAX. Any of the above would be fine and it really doesn’t make a difference.

I would use VTI or VTSAX depending on the form of the fund you prefer. I prefer mutual funds in my IRA since I never touch it other than more contributions

I started maxing my 401k from year 1 and I hope to have $5 million or more by the time I retire around 60. Wouldn’t it make sense to put all of my yearly $19,500 401k contribution to ROTH 401k instead of traditional 401k?

My reasoning is that I would pay 35% tax now and my remaining 65% would grow tax-free in ROTH 401k…. versus traditional 401k where I deposit 100% but every distribution will be taxed 35% assuming I make a lot in retirement.
