Ryan Rabbitt Employer does not match 401k - should I invest?
14 October 2024 | 24 replies
I have a small real estate portfolio and a long investing horizon as I'm in my early 30s.Thoughts on why to stop 401k:- no match benefit- returns are very low avg. annual ~5.5% last 3 years net of fees- can only borrow up to 50k from 401k - limited access to capital until retirement age Thoughts on why it could be good to invest in ETFs or general securities example instead(SPY) :- higher returns 9% avg annual last 3 years net of fees - access to capital - securities backed line of credit (could be used as another form of liquidity to continue purchasing real estate) - long-term mitigated tax liability - if you never sell the underlying securities and instead use the line of credit as a form of liquidity to purchase assetsIt seems like this could be a long-term strategy with limited tax liability.
