Deep dives
Split Investments between Roth IRA and 529 Plan
Allocate $580 per month towards maxing out your Roth IRA contributions for the year, while investing the remaining $220 into a 529 plan for your child's education. This strategy will help you secure your retirement savings and build a substantial amount in the 529 plan for your child's future education.
Transfer Real Estate Equity Timing
Given the current high HELUCK rates and potential impact on cash flow, consider holding off on pulling equity out of your rental properties for now. Instead, focus on investing in equities and crypto to potentially earn better returns than the high interest rates. Revisit the idea of fund transfer when interest rates cool down.
Introducing Inheritance to New Investments
Following a large inheritance, consider maintaining your two income-producing rental properties in Ventura, California without pulling equity out immediately. Focus on diversifying investments by allocating funds into equities and high-yield savings accounts to generate returns and build wealth while waiting for a more favorable time to reassess the real estate equity extraction.
Wealth Building Strategy for Young Parents
As 33-year-old parents welcoming their first child in December, allocate $580 monthly towards maxing out Roth IRA contributions and invest the remaining $220 into a 529 plan for your child's future education. This balanced approach prioritizes retirement savings while setting up a solid education fund for your growing family.
Strategic Financial Planning Post-Inheritance
Given a recent inheritance and investment in two California properties, evaluate the option of deferring decisions on extracting equity due to high HELUCK rates affecting cash flow. Consider diversifying investments by diverting resources into equities and crypto for enhanced growth potential while awaiting a more favorable environment for real estate transactions.
