Who the frick doesn't put their retirement in funds or something like VOO? What kind of stupid fricking mutant ugly r-slur who smells bad puts 90% of their retirement in standard stocks?

It's fine to do that but you have to diversify. No single stock should make up more than 5-10% of your portfolio.

Not for 99% of the population who could never hope to outcompete a cheap-as-shit Fidelity or Blackrock ETF especially when they get charged a 2-4bps per-instrument spread to rebalance. The only reason to stockpick is if you want to larp as Jordan Belfort while working as a walmart shelf stacker at age 32

Oh I agree 100%. I started off buying individual stocks but I gave up because it was too much work and switched to index funds. Just looking at this post you can tell pizza is one of those 99%. What he's doing is basically just gambling.

I don't know stuff about things, is this an acceptable mix?

looks like a target date retirement fund. i'm not smart enough to know anything about the individual funds in question, but i personally think 25% in bonds is high, unless maybe you're in your 40s or something. but you're posting here so i doubt it. everybody has different risk tolerance though and if you're really risk averse it's not really a wrong choice
here's a forum of people smarter than me talking about how much bonds they want

Some of the monkeys on this site are just smart enough to know economy is an important word.

Please do not use the word 'monkey' in a derogatory sense during Donkey Kong December. I WILL ping jannies and you WILL be banned for Kongmisia.

But Kong is a superior ape and monkeys (like
@Holly_Jolly_Kong) are inferior life forms.
So it's actually a more relevant insult during DKD

Age 65 is required to withdraw funds from an HSA (that are NOT for qualified medical expenses).

67 is the social security age for zoomers right.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
you can begin taking your social security payments starting age 62. you must take them starting age 70.
the amount you get paid is scaled - the longer you wait before taking them, the more money per month you get. They do this w/ actuarial tables. If you know for a fact you're unhealthy (chain smoker, alcoholic, whatever) then you should usually take them early to max out how much you take before you die. If you know you're healthier than average then you should generally delay it to 70.
edit: medicare kicks in at age 65 as well which is arguably more important than social security these days, since marketplace plans for 64-year-olds are expensive af (old people be gettin sick)

Wasn't that a critique of Medicare for All?
Medicare already absorbs the bulk of medical expenses as it stands, unless you're an unusual person you'll probably be healthy after 16 or so.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
While it's true that old people tend to cost more, they also tend to not live terribly long after age 65.
Another huge issue w/ medicare for all though is that medicare is basically a form of price fixing - they determine what they're willing to pay for various services/operations and they won't pay more. Private insurers pay more. Some doctors prefer medicare patients because medicare is more straightforward and fast with their repayments, but they also pay less. Realistically if doctors only got paid what medicare pays for all operations, they'd all need to take a substantial pay cut.

I don't know your exact age but I do know you have at least 30 years before you retire. What the frick are you even talking about? You should probably be in almost all equity (I don't know your exact situation) and let that 401k fricking rip dude.
Your time horizon is so fricking far away this volatility is good for you. If shit drops for four years, like you're implying, that just means you're investing for cheaper and getting a better deal. If shit drops you should be doubling down on throwing money into the market.
Holy frick why anyone sub 60 years old is this concerned about the market just shows how illiterate the general population is on the subject.
