Hi Everyone, First, thank you everyone who contributes to this forum. I read entries daily and have learned so much from the posts on here. I thank you in advance for helping me with my 457 questions. From watching other posts I am sure I have left something out and can answer any follow-up questio...

Honestly, watching my bond holdings (the thing I should be least worried about) was the most gut wrenching thing to watch in March. I had 7-8% get wiped out in maybe 2 weeks.... oh and then a rebalance band kick in forcing me to sell at lows to stick to my IPS (which I did). In your head, you are c...

TQQQ - 3X Leveraged Nasdaq 100 This answer is theoretically correct but a terrible idea. A 34% drop in the market would result in a 100% loss of your Roth assets.

I would argue that the most aggressive one is an inverse triple-leveraged fund because it gives up the easy money of markets' tending to rise over time. So, SQQQ.

Fair argument

I used to approach these kinds of threads with a defense of LETFs and how they can be used safely to generate above market returns. But now I don't really care to convince anyone any more. If you don't care to change your mind from Bogleheadistic dogma, that's fine. More outperformance for the rest...

I heard Naval on Joe Rogans podcast last week and I was wondering where I heard of him and of course it was the Bogleheads forum. I immensely enjoyed the podcast.

I also work for the City. I max the 457 first due to the fact you can take withdrawals upon severance from the City. I then max out the 401k.

To answer your question, the fees are reasonable.

Both sides have made excellent arguments, so I decided to split it down the middle and go 50/50.
