Posted: 04 Feb 2019 08:24 PM PST I've noticed most posts in this thread are focused on net worth and total amount in savings vs passive income coming in. I ask this for honest feedback based on my current strategy and plan. I live in a HCOL area but just recently invested $40k into a multi family property that's generating roughly $1,500 a month in passive income not to mention a mortgage that's being paid off by my tenants and a property that increases in value yearly. I'm so hooked on this strategy I can really only think about doing this over and over again until I have enough passive income to have financial independence. I'm definitely maxing out my 401k every year and trying to save some money it just seems like building a portfolio of multi family properties that generate real passive income is so much more valuable to me than trying to save money. Anyone else get as excited as I do about building passive income to get to financial independence? [link] [comments] |
Any FIRE feasibility studies using portfolios with non-US stocks? Posted: 05 Feb 2019 09:25 AM PST All the studies I've seen, including ERN's Ultimate Guide to Safe Withdrawal Rates, use only US equities - typically S&P 500 or similar index - in their simulations. This could be a problem because holding your entire equity portfolio exclusively in US stock is inadvisable, especially nowadays when most analysts expect ex-US equity to outperform US equity over the coming years. Even a conservative investment manager like Vanguard recently recommended holding at least 40% foreign stock. Personally, half my equity holdings are non-US, and reading the FAQ and the posts here, it seems many in this community hold portfolios which allocate a significant equity portion to non-US stocks, e.g. the popular Three-Fund portfolio. So my question is, how applicable are early retirement studies, which all seem to be using US equities exclusively, to many of us here who have 40% or more of our equity holdings in non-US stocks?
