My only concern with index funds is that, as people move more and more into them. And less into actively managed funds. How will the market set the value for the stocks in the index? As it’ll be the fund buying them regardless. So let’s say KO was actually doing really badly. Vanguard would still be buying the stock and falsely increasing its market cap. What’s your thoughts on this please?

@MarriageKidsandMoney

9 ай бұрын

If KO does really badly and falls out of the index you're investing in ... you no longer invest in KO as an index fund investor. This is a win-win for index fund investors because you only own the market-cap-weighted companies in the index.

Yes and no. ETFs can typically be bought at a lower price. Also, they can be sold during the trading day and index funds sold at the end of the market day. But as far as what you're investing in, an ETF like VTI and an index fund like VTSAX are pretty much the same.

Thats all great but adjusted for inflation you will still not get rich even after 40 years. I just googled that an item worth 100 in 1960 would be worth 1000 in 2023. So 40 years from now 2 million will be 200k in todays valuation. So setting aside small sums and putting it into index will help you a little when you’re old but don’t count on getting actually rich. Starting a business and than investing is basically the only way anyone could get rich.

Inflation is definitely something to account for. Since the stock market has averaged around 10% over it's existence and inflation averages around 3% over its history as well ... a real rate of return of around 7% may be a better input. With that said, contributing $500 per month for 40 years at a 7% real rate of return will make you a millionaire (in today's dollars). So I guess the question really is ... what do you consider rich?

First of all, congratulations on growing your 401k balance to $140,000 at 45 years old. To get to $1 million by 55, you would need to consider maxing out your 401k each year for the next 10 years. If you get an employer match, that would help a lot. If you don't get an employer match, you could consider investing with (and maxing out) a Roth IRA as well.

So if you started investing at the beginning of 2022 and invested in the S&P 500 index, then you'd be up by 1% today. Long-term though (say over the past 100 years) ... you'd be averaging around 10%
