You are the head of a household with a wife, 4 kids and a dog.
In 2022 your combined incomes were $750k but this is the first time it had happened and it’s unclear (especially in the current climate) how long it will last.
You have about $50k by todays market prices in crypto 60/40 BTC/ETC split.
You “own” a house in a major US city that you rent out for $3k a month. The mortgage is $2900 and you have 5 years left on it (15 year mortgage).
You live in and “own” a $1.5M apartment in an expensive European city. 15 years left on a 20 year mortgage. Monthly payment is $3k.
Each kid had $50k in a 529 and you have about $500k in retirement/pension accounts.
You and your wife are in your late 30s.
What is the optimal strategy if your goals are early retirement and genuine financial safety?

Diversify investments. Make sure you have some gold and silver. Invest in some index funds. Also, invest in some local businesses like laundromats or car washes.

>> No.54267406

Congratulations on your impressive income and assets! Here are some suggestions for your optimal financial strategy:

Create an emergency fund: Given the current uncertainty in the economy, it's important to have a cash cushion to cover unexpected expenses or a job loss. Aim to have 6-12 months of living expenses in a high-yield savings account or money market fund.

Pay off high-interest debt: If you have any outstanding debts with high-interest rates, such as credit card balances or personal loans, focus on paying those off first. This will free up more cash flow to invest for retirement and other long-term goals.

Maximize retirement contributions: You and your wife should aim to contribute the maximum amount allowed by law to your 401(k) plans and individual retirement accounts (IRAs). This will not only reduce your taxable income but also help build a substantial nest egg for early retirement.

Diversify investments: While cryptocurrency may be a good investment option, it's important to diversify your portfolio to manage risk. Consider investing in low-cost index funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that provide exposure to a range of asset classes, including stocks, bonds, and real estate.

Consider refinancing your mortgages: Given the current low interest rates, it may be a good time to consider refinancing your mortgages to lower your monthly payments and save on interest charges. You can also consider paying off your mortgages early to free up cash flow for other goals.

Review college savings plans: With $50k already saved for each of your children in a 529 plan, you're off to a great start. However, it's important to review the investment options and fees associated with these plans to ensure they align with your long-term goals.

Consult with a financial advisor: Given your complex financial situation, it may be helpful to consult with a financial advisor who can provide personalized guidance on your investment strategy, and retirement planning.

Is it a good idea to pay off some of my mortgage for the European place?
I’m in tech. In fact I’m at coinbase. And I’m worried if I get laid off, my wife’s job alone will struggle to meet our expenses.
If I can bring the mortgage down to $1500 a month by just sinking in every spare penny I have, I could cover that even if I work bagging shit at the supermarket

Not sure what planet you're from but humans usually call this rape not whatever the fuck mental gymnastics you are thinking. Not that I would judge you if you were into rape, nobody cares, it's just drawings at the end of the day.

But, judging from your comment I can't tell if you are just genuinely clueless or just a coward taking the more conveniently moral reading of the comic. Self-delusion is definitely a possibility, people do it all the time about everything.

She's also crying and has a worried expression on her face. Also driving a blind underage girl away to fuck her is undeniably a rapey scenario.

It's a cheap premise described of the comic, whatever, let's just not be dumb. no one is "reading" these things for intellectual stimulation. You are making a lot of excuses to explain away how she fully consented because she "knows", what if she didn't? what if she called an uber because she's blind and needs to get somewhere, and the driver recognizes her as the blind earth loli who does not wear SHOES because it BLINDS her kinetic earth senses. She might enjoy it in the moment then regret it the next day to report what she now considers "rape".

Is this like “legitimate rape”? She didn’t say no. She didn’t resist. She was blushing and mumbling coy bullshit the whole time.

If it were rape she wouldn’t look shy and nervous, she would look fucking terrified.

It’s not rape. I’m sorry if this upsets you. There are other rape comics out there, you know.

Insure the wife and kids for $5 million and $1.25 million each kid. Take sailing vacation to Mediterranean Sea. Put on life jacket. Scuttle boat in middle of the night. Wife and most kids don't make it out from below decks. Take least favorite/smallest child and life jacket. Drown child wearing life jacket. Always maintain that you have no idea what happened. You were just "in the water" and the boat was gone and your one child was dead floating near you. cry a lot.

If you can throw in some bondage, anal and a plastic bag over her head as well that would be peachy.
