Dow - 26,000 - "Edit Next Stop 27,000"

[SlugSlinger]

Record highs abound!

It would be difficult to buy into this market, but that's what my father in law said 2 years ago and the Dow is up 38% since then with 31% in the last year.

You know something? I do not claim to be either a real estate or investment wizard, no sirree, not even a little bit of one! But I do know that there is potential folly in publicly discussing, at least in vivid detail, ones' financial moves in the world of real estate, investments and TAXES. My money; my business. My taxes; my business too. (And perhaps someone I may hire to assist me with them).

I am happily retired and financially just fine. I got there by ...never mind...nunya bidness.

LMAO.
Let me guess, you dont do auto draft for your bills either. Checks in the mail are more secure to you.

All I can say is, I think it's best to have property, equities, and PMs if at all possible.

There are no taxes (income or CGs) involved with an IRA. And the fees are a tiny drop in the bucket.
You really dont know much about the investment market it seems.

What makes you think IRA's and Roth's are the only way to invest in stocks, bonds, treasuries, etc.? Or, that I'd even be interested?

I never said it was best...did I? nope.
It is the "only" way you will avoid CG taxes as well as other taxes though.
Prove me wrong.

Exactly, there is a whole world out there in investment opportunities. Some with more risks than others, but some big risks bring big rewards.
Never bet what you can't lose.

Question
If I purchase 100 shares of Apple in my brokerage account, do I "own" those shares?
