Anyone start later in life? About to turn 32 and my retirement savings are sad.

I have a brokerage account with 7k in it, split 70% VOO 30% SCHF. I now have an additional 11k I can add - how should I allocate it? Should I move towards an 80/20 split just in current funds or add things like a growth (VGT) or high dividend ETF (VYM). All of my retirement accounts are already maxed, FWIW and don’t need the $ for any large purchases needed in the near future.

Do any real estate lawyers out there know of/can direct me to a ROFO agreement to purchase commercial property? I’m working on one now (but using a ROFO to purchase equity interests as a basis) and would like to see what other people are doing. Finding a good one has been hard, as this kind of thing isn’t always required to be filed with the sec and every search I’ve done basically pulls up garbage. Also, are there any provisions you’d consider absolutely crucial from the owner’s side?

How often are you concerned about losing your job? Ever since I got a mortgage a few months ago, this fear has been plaguing me. The volatile market doesn’t help either.

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?

So, a possible Blue Wave in November with some promises to reverse the 2018 tax cuts and maybe introduce at-death realization of capital gains - should mean a hectic November-January, right?

(Then again, I've been wrong before. Last time it was "So, a global pandemic that preys on the elderly, many of whom have a bunch of unused gift and GST exemption lying around since 2018 - probably a busy time for estate planning?" Was underwhelmed. )

Plan to buy a place and currently trying to pick a real estate agent. Some realtors require to sign an exclusive service contract. Should we go with someone that doesn’t require a contract?

I received an offer for a role that is a lot more money than I thought but I still want to negotiate and see how much more money I can get. What can I say if the salary is already above average for the role in the market and city I live in?

Urgent - Formula Shortage - anyone know someone reliable in or near San Juan, Puerto Rico? None of our brand left in any US Costco. Found ONE in San Juan that has it, can’t order remotely must be in person purchase. Happy to pay for someone’s Costco membership if they don’t have one, and pay for their time / shipping of course. Please DM me if someone comes to mind, it’s a timing is everything situation. Thank you !

Does anyone use Fundations in 1st grade? We are piloting it in our district as a tier 1 for all kids as our daily phonics program. Trying to figure out how to set up classroom w/ all individual tools?

Considering leaving public accounting but feeling very conflicted about it. Is the grass actually greener in industry? I’m a manager if that makes a difference.

Remind me when TDUMP served the 🇺🇸 by being in the military or any of his sons? Oh that’s right. Never. But Biden’s son did. Hmmmm

Rs, do you agree that the Trump administration should immediately begin to provide the Biden administration with classified material, especially on national security matters and the pandemic?

Is Trump saying that he’s innocent and therefore so is Brett Kavanaugh really a good strategy?

Anyone going in on VNET?

Does anyone use the fidelity app? How can you change it out of dark mode? I can’t figure it out for the life of me.

The call volume on 200C for this Friday is comical... yes this was also GME post.

For people in this bowl who argued that volatility would drop as last week progressed, nice call👏! But curious as to what the thought process is, especially given the volatile earnings season, rising # of cases, weakness in improving economic data. Did not expect UVXY to fall as much as it did last well, can anyone explain if they expect this to continue these next few weeks/why this happened last week?

What are some of your favorite strategies to use in VIX since it constantly decays? Bear call spread? Or is there something more profitable?

I’ve got cash that I want to conserve (for bschool) and my time horizon is 1 year. It is currently all sitting in a HYSA. Should I bother moving it to a higher return investment and if so what would that be? Thank you!

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.

Why are some people saying that they (regulators or the govt) need to stop GME trading? Isn’t this a free market?

HD is an excellent short candidate right now. March 29 $187.5Ps or $185Ps

What’s going on with VXX? It’s coming down since Friday but volatility in the short term remains, even as the senate is still working on the stimulus package

Thoughts on CSIQ? It is sitting near all time highs but has not jumped like crazy from pre-pandemic. It’s at a 25% premium. It has solid fundamentals. It may be a solid option after it hits the 50 day SMA.

Can’t see us going much higher .. thoughts on spy puts?

JMIA is insane. Why is it only popping in the last couple weeks?

IMO It’s only a matter of time that Cuomo closes the entire NYSE. If you are holding short term options, consider the risk.

Anyone trade options on JPM You Invest? They have a bonus running right now and wondering if it was worth it for general investing and options trading.

Cons of moving 75% of my savings to an Intermediate US Treasury ETF (SCHR)? I wouldn’t mind losing 4-5% if the market rallies, but would rather put cash to work if the market keeps tanking

What happens if you sell a covered call far ITM for a large premium? Is the only loss your shares and opportunity cost once the option is exercised by the call holder?

Is blockfi only a bank and not really investing in crypto?
