I am completely new to investing and I’ve been trying to read as much as possible and ask questions. Please let me know your thoughts on this game plan and if there is anything you would change, take out or add? This is just me going based off notes. I am 100% open to suggestions.
Step 1: Contribute 4% employer match to 401k on Fidelity. Step 2: Backdoor Roth IRA - contribute $7,500 and invest in SWTSK (any other mutual fund or ETF I should invest in IRA?) Step 3: Invest in SCHB or SCHX in Taxable account Step 4: Invest in SGOV, USFR, and SWVXX in Taxable account - All for liquid funds Step 5: (Consider investing in SCHD in taxable account?) - Dividend focused ETF. Step 6: (Consider a Sweep account at Fidelity which offers a higher % return in a MMA, not sure why?) Step 7: Is SWPPX and/or SWTSX necessary, and if so, which account and why? Step 8: What about international ETFs and/or Bonds, should I add any to my taxable account and if so which ones?
Step 9: Consider QQQ in a taxable account (but would this be redundant if I already will have SCHX or SCHB?)
