Man my retirement accounts are doing awesome.

[OFC Ranger]

After years and years of getting nice 8%-15% yearly gains for the last year they have sat stagnate like that tupperware of leftover beef-a-roni no one wants to open up to dump out for fear of throwing up.

Thats all I got. Sorry.

I stopped looking at mine. All I know is I’m putting in the max amount yearly I can. Company matches. Just hope it still there when I do decide to hang it up once and for all.

Mine have done very well

last I checked mine are hanging in there. Not doing as well as the last few years. I'm tempted to take a small chunk out (I can without penalty) to get some of the gains in case crap starts going down.

You're still young Jack. Stay the course, and it will work out over time..

 

[McLeadslinger]

Same here. I just stopped looking. It’s obvious why stuff has tanked but we won’t go there ?

Might want to change funds or allotments.

Mine gained 16% last year.

I manage my own and a few other family and friends portfolios of stocks and IRAS/Roths for fun and I have been amply and justly rewarded, so much so that I never have to worry about money or cash flow for the rest of my life. Just sayin. Teaching myself to run my own money has been a life changing experience and allowed me to retire more than 20 years ago.

Just hold on to the beef-a-roni that's going up in value faster than anything.

I retired this year and moved one of my 401Ks to a managed retirement account with a financial advisor. I started taking money out of this account when I retired. Even with taking money, the account is still growing.

My other 401K is still in the company plan I retired from. Last year I saw a 6% growth and over the past three years a 42% growth. In the next month or so I will be moving this money to the financial advisor and will be putting most of it into an account that will protect my the principle.

Ours are doing great, 25% gain on two, with +15 on the others with only one less than 10%. Just got our RMD's and year end statement and I am very happy with them. Now I need to reposition for the big correction.

I worked for 27 years for a major company and put the max matched into a 401K. Then at 52 they out-soursed me. Then right before the recession my advisor convincede to roll my 401K over to him. So when the recession hit I was out of the market and buying back in. I figure I made about 40% that year. I thank my advisor every time I see him. When my former company made a pension buy out offer, I talked to him and he said "Take it, we can do better. Besides then it's your money, they can't take it away. Now I'm retired and drawing off of it every month. My statement every month keeps going up. Going to give myself a big raise this year, time for more mods!

Those big earning percentages makes me nervous of the B word (bubble)


as a back up I invested a lot in led.

From Forbes:

”Except for a few brief sell-offs, the S&P 500 gained 26.9% for the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 18.7% in 2021, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 21.4%.”

If you didn’t make money last year, you are poorly invested and should seek advice from a pro.

No need I decided withdraw it all and invest in hookers and blow.
