Summary
We’re kicking off the week by answering listener questions! And if you have a question that you’d like for us to answer on the show, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask , send us your voice memo. Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!
1 - Should I buy ETFs or mutual funds when investing within a taxable brokerage account?
2 - What should we do with the proceeds from selling our house?
3 - As we achieve FIRE, how do we go about easily withdrawing our retirement funds early without getting hit with penalties?
4 - Is it a good idea to put down 0% on a new home? And if it is, what should I do with extra money that I would have on hand?
5 - Should I ditch my workplace 401k and move to a Roth IRA instead?
