Am I the only one that finds this offensive?

Definitely offensive and tasteless. What a jerk!

Might have. I cut and pasted the quote. It sounded right to me either, but I found it two places the same way. Meh.

2) http://www.fidelity.com - go start up a ROTH IRA and max that thing out.


[/ QUOTE ]

A) You really think that making 200k (assuming he declared it) would allow him to contribute to a Roth?
B) Even if he was eligible, the max is still capped at $4k/yr.

While a roth ira is a great investment tool, it's not ideal (or allowed) for a person who gets a large chunk of cash like this. I would personally put a chunk in money market accounts, a bunch in mutual funds, buy a house or two, and dump a bunch in a bloated life insurance policy with a company like NW Mutual.

1) http://www.ingdirect.com - start up an on-line savings account with a small portion of it that you would like to have access to. they have really good rates.

2) http://www.fidelity.com - go start up a ROTH IRA and max that thing out.

3) buy a house and live in it.

4) transfer anything left over to tpir90036 on 'stars.

[/ QUOTE ]

You can't contribute a roth if you make that much money.

I'd get two chicks and make them sit on my face and have a ride like the Kentucky Derby...on second thought, they should pay ME.

I don't like the idea of buying a house. I'd rather wait till I was a little older and possibly be married and have a state you are planning on spending a lot of time etc. Plus, if your winrate is for the long-term, you will not be happy that you blew 200k on a shitty house, when you could've gotten a nice house for 4-500k a year from now.
