@iamcoriarnold No disagreement on the goodness of a Roth IRA, but many miss out on the triple tax advantage that HSAs offer. I'd consider it the best account you can have.
- Contributions are taxβdeductible
- Growth is taxβfree
- Withdrawals are taxβfree for qualified medical expenses

@DividendMil I'm not seeing $SCHD matching the S&P 500 (i.e. $VOO) over the last 6 months in total return. $VOO has a total return of 11.87% in that time-frame compared to $SCHD's 9.70%. That's a 22% difference, but $SCHD has done much better than the rough 12 months prior.
@DevotedDividend $JEPQ and $JEPI are both still sold options in retirement accounts. Not a great option in taxable accounts due to their distributions being taxed as normal and ordinary income though.
@aincomeinvestor Find something you're passionate about and do that. If you're financially gifted, help others out around you that aren't which in my experience, most really need good financial advice.
@DevotedDividend Comparing $VIG & $SCHD since the inception of $SCHD in October of 2011, $VIG has a slight advantage outperforming $SCHD in Total Return by around 30% (476% to 447%). But, when you look at the last 3 years, $VIG has almost doubled the return of $SCHD. I'd lean more towards $VIG.
Good morning! Earnings announcements start to flow again this week with some of the notable ones below...
Tue: $JPM $DAL
Wed: $TSM $BAC $WFC $C
Thu: $MS $GS $BLK
Fri: $SCHW $PNC
@TopDividendETFs $JEPQ is not a good fit for a taxable account because of its high % of ordinary distributions. So $GPIQ & $QQQI are better fits for taxable accounts. Also, $GPIQ & $QQQI have both outperformed $JEPQ since $QQQI's inception in Jan 2024.
