2019 Goals
Here are my goals for 2019.
Financial
- Max out my Roth IRA ($6k)
- Max out my fiancés Roth IRA ($6k)
- Max out my 401k ($19k)
- Keep 5k in an Ally Emergency Fund
- Have 35k saved in taxable investment accounts for a down payment on our next house
- Reach a Net Worth of 330k
- Have a total of 110k invested in retirement accounts
- Have a total of 150k invested in everything
- Roll over HSA to Fidelity. I’ll be married in 2019, and we’re getting better health insurance, so I lose access to my HSA. The existing HSA will charge high fees if I’m not contributing to it, so I’m moving it to a no-fee Fidelity HSA.
- Don’t buy a car
