16 years ago i wrote up a written financial plan that tells me where to put my money. It's about 25 % in the us total stock market, 15% in small value fund and another 5%. About 20 per cent of the money goes into real estate,. Another 20per cent is invested in bonds. If you also have debt, things get a little bit more complicated, because another auption is just to pay down the debt. Even paying off a mortgage at two point three percent might be attractive compared to that. And i'll let your own tolerance for debt dictate whether you pay off low interest rate debt like that or not. For em the white coat investor, sub retet,
When faced with making a decision you may find yourself with the inability to act due to overthinking the available alternatives and possible outcomes. This is commonly known as analysis paralysis. When you get analysis paralysis with finances, what often happens is you are so worried about making a mistake that you don't do anything at all. The more money you have, the worse this can be. When you don't make a choice to invest, you are making a choice. You're making a choice to invest in cash. If that is not the decision that you want to make, then you need to fix your paralysis. Leaving money sitting in an account earning close to nothing is not going to give you the same long term returns as investing in stocks, bonds, and real estate. Fixing analysis paralysis with your finances starts with having a written investment plan. We talk in more detail about that in this episode so you have a plan on what to do with your money.
