FAQs About Investment

Frequently asked questions about this topic:

How much can I invest but still have enough liquid?

Let's figure out what your cash needs are in the next year or two, as well as what your expenses are that would need to be covered if you didn't have a paycheck coming in.

Do you know anything about socially responsible investing?

Yes! Think about what industries you'd like to steer clear of and what you'd like to include in your portfolio. Specify companies you'd like to screen out to make sure you're progressing toward values-aligned investing.

Should I invest in my Roth 401k or my Pre-tax 401k?

Tax treatment is the answer. Ideally, you would establish accounts with different types of tax treatments and contribute so you'll enter retirement with various types of tax treatment on the accounts from which you withdraw. Balance the tax advantages now with tax advantages you'll want later on.
