Open up a Roth IRA if you haven’t and max that out — $6k a year.
Emergency fund: depends, how many months of expenses would you need in a savings to not feel stressed in case something unexpected happens? I’m 23 and have about 6-8 months of expenses in a HYSA.
In this environment the more you can keep
The better. If you pay rent, have a mortgage, etc you’ll need to account for that. 6 months is good. 1 year is extreme but better! It’s your comfortable level.
My mortgage is approx $2k per month, so I try to keep at least $24k on hand.
3 mo of expenses is what I’m currently going for (but I’m younger) with a family and more responsibility you may want to save up more as you have more on the line. I think 3-6 mo is fine if you’re young and single but as I get older I want 12 mo of expenses liquidated and ready at any given moment
I live in NYC and make 120k FYI. Haven't been maxing out 401k because I was always scared of an emergency popping up where I would need the money, but I think I have a year+ worth of savings across my bank and wealthfront account, plus 25-30k more in Accenture stock (I know... I should diversify🤦🏽♂️). I was going to dump more money from my savings to wealthfront, but should I just increase my 401k contributions as well?
Work left to right, top to bottom
Get it up to 6 especially in this environment. Ditch wealthfront and just buy a low fee index fund (Fidelity and vanguard have great options)
