Ok so I know a little about finance from being a finance major but don't claim to know everything....I know enough to know that I don't want actively managed mutual funds and all that....I still have a lot to learn but here is my criteria and situation....please recommend an online broker for me
1) I will have a roth ira and contribute the max 5k every year in addition to my work 401k program
2) I will mainly probably use index etfs or MAYBE index mutual funds for my retirement plans
3) I want to trade individual stocks for my personal taxable account too as i grow older and learn more and more
4) I want to trade options easily on the site for myself since i enjoy that stuff (finance major)
5) I will not be day trading or anything...buy and hold for most part except for options for my "fun" account
Basically something that I can use for the 5 criteria i listed above
Can anyone tell me their opinion on index fund etfs vs index fund mutual funds...
anyways my goal is to retire around 60 maybe 50-55 depending on how things are
I plan on increasing my contributions by 5% every year to my retirement account(s) and plan to have around $2.5-$3 mil by 60 (less if i decide to retire earlier and give up more stuff)
