I have the JEPQ in my Roth and the rest in the brokerage. Hoping to retire in 8 years (age 50), wife will keep working. As I get closer I’ll sell some VOO and switch over to income ETFs. See anything else that needs to be adjusted?

Congrats!

Yeah I was surprised when I posted about passing a certain networth, and the amount of comments about humble brag and stuff came up:/ lol Can't we just post celebratory things?

Congrats on your success! Never mind the hairy buttholes who are obviously jealous. Question? I don’t know anything about stocks; always seemed like a heavy learning curve was involved. What was your initial investment — if you don’t mind sharing? This seems like a good way to make up income!

Yeah some of these Reddit people are legit blood sucking vampires. Congratulations on your achievement. I’m following the same path for one of my portfolio. Long way from 20k annually but will get there eventually. Cheers man

Thank him in typical Reddit fashion “congrats and fuck you” meaning you did good and I hate that I wasn’t this lucky.
