Looking for some general advice on retirement investments, that not just I can learn from but perhaps many others on here. I understand there isn’t a one size fits all approach to this. Just looking for tips and tricks.
I’m 26 and started contributing to my 401k 2 years ago in a traditional 401k. I was contributing 6%. Early this year I switched my contributions to my company’s Roth 401k plan, and upped it to 10%, and just last week now 12%. My company matches either 3% of my salary, or $2k, whichever is greater.
Seeking some advice on some other good options for retirement investments? Wondering if I should lower my Roth 401k contribution so that I still get the $2k company match and invest the money I would otherwise contribute to the 401k into a Roth IRA? If so, where do I begin on this?
I’m a noob at all this so pardon my ignorance.
Thanks!
