Yearly take-home pay ~ $54.4K
Monthly take-home ~ $4.5 K
Expenses ~ $2 K <people never get this right so I double it>
Monthly savings of $2.5 K.
If you can automatically have $ go from work directly into saving vehicles do so ... this will stop temptations. You should pocket 40% for expenses & living <getting your date> ... and 60% savings.
1. Before you do anything else <except pay off all debt> ... Build up to $20K in Emergency Savings first <$2K * 12 = $24>. I then tell myself I have no money when I deplete the account to $15 K. Then I change allocations, and make sure I always have this highly liquid stash. <T-Bills, CD's, Saving/Checking accounts ... safe & liquid>
2. Savings - After the safety account is established goals reached, then you need savings that are more risky but still liquid <make sure there are no penalties to get $$$>. You can invest the money into bonds, mutual funds, or stocks ... what ever you are educated in and feel confident in. This account is taxable so be mindful of that when you make investment decisions.
3. Retirement - 401(k), SEP, ROTH, IRA ... See what you're company has for retirement. If they match, then contribute what they match. If no retirement is offered, then go to a broker and get their help. You should be investing 10-20% of your savings here.
4. Housing - With only $1K in expenses I'm guessing you don't own a home. I would look into buying a home <Loft, condo, town home> It's money well spent, and you can get great loans today <tomorrow the good loans will be gone> |

Invest as much as you can. You are in a great position to acquire a very large nest egg.
Step 1. Ross IRA. You can contribute $4000 annually and the interest or earnings from the amount invested is completely tax free. What a deal!!! The amount you can contribute goes up over time.
Step 2. start reading about investing. You do need to learn about your options. Hint: The more you invest now, the more you will have later. It is called compound interest.
Let's assume you invest $10,000 a year and you earn on average 10% per year.
In 20 years you will have $572,000. In 30 years: $1,644,940.
That is assuming no taxes, which would be the case with a Ross. But you can currently only invest $4,000.
In 30 years $4,000 would grow to $657,976.
In a nut shell, what you should invest in is open to speculation. But there is one rule that you should follow. Diversify. |

i think the first book you need to read is 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' and its subsequent series. The reason is that will get you started on the path of investment. After that you either or two things will happen. You will learn how to invest or give money to a third party to invest. I feel this is the best advice I can give for you long term. |

Open a Roth IRA with Vanguard. Check out their Target Retirement 2045 Fund (VTIVX), put in the max of $4000 per year. Max out your 401K, if you have one. And remember, invest no more than 5 to 10% into your company stock! Ask any Lucent employee, they know.
After you do those two things then you can gamble a little. Take a look at Sharebuilder. At 4 bucks a trade, not bad. |

You've asked a big question, and these are all small answers. There's a lot to your question, and some of it is very specialized to your individual situation...what your goals are, for example. That said, I think the easiest place to start would be with a very standard mutual fund. That way, your money can be growing a little bit while you learn. Your next step will be to do a lot of reading and studying about investing. You're in a great situation right now...I don't know if you realize it...but you can be wealthy by the time you retire if you handle this right. You've got a lot of money you can put aside, and what you put aside at a young age will pay off even more than if you waited.
The Rich Dad, Poor Dad books are excellent for learning about business and handling your money, but his expertise is not really in stock market investing, as such. For that, I'd suggest Jeremy Siegel's "Stocks for the Long Run", Peter Lynch's "One up on Wall Street", and Ben Graham's "The Intelligent Investor".
I hesitate to mention any stocks without knowing your specific situation, but some of the ones we've been recommending lately include: AMX, BAC, TPX, ASFI, PCLN, HD, TMX, TKC, and IACI.
Let me know if I can be of any more help to you. Best of luck. |
