my reits are getting killed, so the only thing I can do is buy more and hope we are not in a prolonged recession.

What other things can you do besides an IRA for retirement? You should be ok as long as you max those out every year. I dont think Transformer toys or video collection counts.

Yeah I thought 401k was the beez neez until I got an IRA. Now I have two IRAs, I opened a second one last week.

What's the point of having two IRAs? No matter what, the max you can contribute is $6,000 a year with all your IRA combine.

So with 401k, that's a total of $25,000 annually to max out. If you start this when you're 30 by the time you retire, you should be getting around 3.6million on that alone w/ a modest 6% return. That's if you want to contribute till you're 68, fuck that noise. So the younger you start the earlier you can fucking retire.

Im lucky enough that both homes are paid for and just couple more years till we get the other 2 kids college paid off. Then ill be able to somewhat relax a bit more.

I wonder if the housing will be cheap next couple years. Really want to get one more house, that way when i die each kid can have a place. Not sure if i want the headache of dealing with renters though.

If we indeed go into a real recession, housing prices will definitely come down. Given how high the prices have been, I can see it starts a chain of foreclosures that can rival 2008. I don't know if it will happen, but it is a possibility.

HDR no one has two homes. You're much better off joining reddit and asking questions in /r/personalfinance or /r/FIRE financial independence, retire early

you're not discussing your positions or holdings. And from everything you have told us, it's probably your wife's money.

He talks of working 43 hours a day and shows his house off (one room) full of frivolous bullshit, YEAH it's his fucking wifes money. He probably works as a cleaner and the wife is never home so she doesn't care if his tacky crap is everywhere.

HDR is busting his ass to provide for his family, goddammit!

Sure, it's possible his wife's plan is to work him into an early grave, throw out all his action figures and retire with a housing empire but let the man enjoy the time he has left.

There is no Lonesage though.

Yes my wife has a nice professional job, but she has been part-time for 8 years now...When our son was born she wanted to do the full time mom thing since this was our last child.

What's wrong with being a cleaner? A man that works as much as he can no matter a job should be admired.

They operate on different risk tolerances.
Also, I'm not planning on making any further contributions.
