Sorry about the short notice but the Southern Nevada Bogleheads are meeting at Ping Pong Thai this coming Saturday, January 10th, at 1pm. Eight of us will be there, and we will be recognizing the local winner of the "guess the Dow" contest of 2014 and taking predictions for 2015. We will also discuss which investments are best for a Roth IRA.

Happy investing,

Dale

The Las Vegas Bogleheads continues to meet in Henderson. We got together on November 17, 2018, at the Green Valley Library. This location is no longer available to us, so we have been looking for other locations.

We are a dynamic and growing group. There were 17 attendees at our last meeting at our old haunt of Ping Pong Thai on January 19, 2019. This was shortly after Mr. Bogle's passing. It was a pleasant reunion of old friends and newbies, with a lot of talk about Jack. It seemed like an unauthorized celebration of his life, with much gratitude and positive emotion expressed. It was a nice time for us to be together.

We are planning a meeting for March. If you are interested, please PM me with your email address. We will add you to our group email.

The Las Vegas group met today, November 20, 2021, with 17 in attendance. This is our second meeting this year and the second since the start of the pandemic. We hope to return to a more normal schedule in 2022.

The group talked about I-bonds and short-term bond fund options in light of the low interest rates. How to do qualified charitable distributions to fulfill a required minimum distribution from a retirement account and how to effectively manage communication with Vanguard service reps were also discussed in detail.

The Las Vegas group met today, March 19, 2022, with 12 in attendance. We discussed how to invest in bonds with the current levels of inflation, covering I-bonds and the Vanguard Short-term TIPS ETF as possibilities. We spoke about buying short-term US Treasurys in brokerage accounts to replace maturing certificate of deposits at the current low rates. Some in the group shared their asset allocations. And we covered retirement issues, discussing Social Security filing strategies, doing Roth conversions, and realizing capital gains in taxable account before receiving retirement income streams to take advantage of the 0% rate for low income filers.

As usual, our luncheon meetings go by very quickly.
