Fired my advisor, two months ago. 65 retired I put 60% in Fidelity s&p 500 index fund .
Other 40% in cds paying 5.65 for one year and money market paying 4.9% ? Maybe I should find a new guy or use fidelity’s robot advisor. But today this is what I’m doing . Don’t plan on cashing in my IRA until the wife is gone . And she has all hers in a money market. Only taking interest at this time . |

After we just crashed into bear, following history bear market length and entered bull. This time is not different. I don’t have any special acumen. I have long term history and this brand new thing called “buy low” and outpace inflation. The one trick the Wall Street fat cats don’t want you to know. |

So we met with our CFP today. Going to do a little tax loss harvesting again. The cap gains gains have been so good this year it’s best if I take a loss on losers. Even though I have carry over losses from last year to offset gains.
Fuck I hate sellling. But long term tax planning is a thing. |

If your concerned about tax law changes then tax diversification is the best thing you can do. My biggest expense by far is taxes. Today, and tomorrow. |

The DOW has been on fire the last few days. NASDAQ and S&P500 came around today as well. At the same time Gold hit an all time high.

What did you sell and when to flee to bonds? Are you happy with your prediction? |
