Is a TDF a good choice for growing my money, in this case? I plan to use it for a house down payment and withdraw it in 5-7 years. I’ve been thinking of putting it in a 2030 or 2035 TDF. Should I go this route or just VTSAX and chill?
Background: USA, I will be saving in a taxable account, and I want to minimize my tax liability as much as possible.
Ok, so… I generally will buy stuff that I think might be a good investment, then sell it at a point where it seems like it’s made enough money. When I sell it I reinvest that into vti, with leftover money in spyg.
A recent example was AMD. I bought maybe 100 shares or so of AMD after they were announced as the Tesla supplier, I think 2021? Sold it after it hit 105% ROI. Put most of the money in VTI, the rest of the money in SPYG.
Rinse repeat.
Not rich, but richer than I was.
Thanks for sharing!
