Re: Should one invest in gold? If so, how and how much?
I think I read or watched Warren Buffet say, dig gold from earth, make gold blocks, dig earth to save gold and add security to guard the gold, there is no real products produced from the gold, hence not an investable asset. My thoughts Gold is a good inflation protection for people in developing countries… The comment ends with another of Buffett’s well-known lines on gold, which he’s repeated in various ways over the years: “The idea of digging something up out of the ground, you know, in South Africa or someplace and then transporting it to the United States and putting into the ground, you know, in the Federal Reserve of New York, does not strike me as a terrific asset.” Warren Buffett on gold : "I will say this about gold.

Re: Need advice for retirement
Even thought not needed, we are sending all the pay checks to 401 K and invest in taxable account for the current year.
Withdrawing for expenses from a different taxable account, just to be physiologically prepared for no pay check comes in regularly and we can withdraw from investments for living...
Next may be withdraw the yearly expenses and see how it goes .... expenses are mostly similar with outliners as always... travel, home improvements, etc..

Re: Can I afford $2 million house?
If your portfolio can accommodate to pay the mortgage and other expenses for the house for sure yes….
For example if you have $1 M in taxable go ahead and purchase a $1.5 home so you can pay the mortgage out of capital gains or even from the invested capital in times when you do not have your paycheck coming in or stock options do not own out well…
Overall mortgage is good debt when managed well and not too overboard.

It is true that you can withdraw tax and penalty free once those things happen. But many withdrawals (not all) can be made tax free and penalty free long before that. Thanks retiredjg, I really appreciate your inputs all along, for over many years... clarifying to many of us... thank you !!! I am not yet 59.5 but planning to withdraw only after 59.5 as needed, no need to withdraw before 59.5 I understand that you do not need the money prior to age 59.5.

My assumption adding this year 401K contribution to Roth 401 K.
In few years if and when I roll over to ROTH IRA and if it grows exponentially can I enjoy tax free both the contributions and growth…

Withdrawals must be taken after age 59½.
Withdrawals must be taken after a five-year holding period.
Are these two requirements accurate for a Roth IRA?
Aren't these two rules more like "allowable" (when there might be restrictions or penalties earlier) rather than required?
Also, what does "Withdrawals must be taken after age 59½" have to to do with avoiding an early withdrawal penalty?

Do have a Roth IRA older than 5 years, however I started Roth 401 K this year.
So in the future when I roll over the Roth 401 K to the old Roth IRA, do I qualify for the five-year holding period.
Alternatively do have to wait for 5 years after the rollover

Short term capital loss carry forward
Last year had a short term loss carry forward...this year has long term capital gains...
What are the best tax options available this year...
Prefer not to use the short term capital loss to offset long term capital gain...
Is there a way to carry the short term capital loss without offsetting the long term capital gain this year...

Re: Fractional Real Estate Ownership - Thoughts?
Do the management company wil own a share to keep their interests in the business... I do see some of these fractional shares in land, and the clause is if the fractional share owners want to sell, should sell to the promoter or existing owners first before selling to others. the promoters also have 1/3 in their ownership so they control the voting as well...
In essence the promoter will have kept 33% for themself and added that cost to the rest of the 67% and sold....too complicated than buying outright as a single owner.
