Not much use for the regular employee unless you can convince your company to switch DC providers, but it's wonderful news for the self-employed among us.

I have two parts to my emergency fund. I have a couple M stashed away in a bank that I don't use. I have several million more that I'd like to keep up with the world economy and not inflate away to nothing. Hence my looking for short term T Bills, preferably 6 months - 1 year but I'll take what I ca...

Question in title. I'm looking to hold parts of my emergency fund / spare cash into those, so somewhere between 3~5m yen. A quick search shows that VGSH is available at SBI. VIFSX and VUSXX don't seem purchaseable? Are there any others? https://investor.vanguard.com/investment-products/etfs/profile/...

I went with a local builder while a friend used Ichijo. We're in the same area with similarly sized houses. My cost was around half of his. I don't have any particular complaints about my place or builder, they did a good job. But when I look at my friend's place, the fit and finish, attention to de...

Well that sucks, 2019 and 2020 were incredible years for me. I've got over 4m in both of those years. woah - what did you invest in? That is a 350% ROI over 5 years! Nothing special, just AAPL, MSFT, AMZN and GOOG. I expected these to go up so I bought them inside NISA. My ETFs and eMaxis are in st...

Stupid question time. The 2019 NISA doesn't rollover direct into the new NISA?

I have a few cafes and coffeeshops I visit every week or two and spend about 3-4 hours there just working. I'm trying to become a known face/regular and obviously the owners and regular staff know me already but we're still not on speaking terms yet. I'm not a sociable person so I'm not quite sure w...

I got a used BMW in similar condition to yours. <2 years old, <5km. Before that I had a Honda Something. There honestly hasn't been much difference in costs. Fuel costs went up because of switching to hi-octane. Insurance is a couple man more expensive. That's about it maybe? Tax is the same whether...

This is what I am struggling with. Even the gains from the last twelve months would give us 6-10 years of living expenses. And yet I am still mentally in accumulation mode (and we're going to continue working). So I really don't know what to do. This is a new situation for me, one I have never been...
