Retirement Accounts

[RyanbabZ71]

Just curious for those that have a retirement account going what is your rate of return for this year and what financial institution do you go through?

 

Checked mine today and I am at a ROR of 6,2% (hmm cool number). My account is through Fidelity.

 

Few years ago when things hit the fan I had something like a -8% ROR It had roared back recently.

no idea how to check it

I haven't gotten my report in a bit but the end of year was damn good- like 13% I think. No idea who we use, I just picked the recommended option for my age.

I have mine pretty aggressive, getting 15% as of last week. Made some changes though.

All I know is I set it up for 2% out of my check every month since I'm so young and wasn't expecting to work here forever

I take out the max plus my employer matches 5% so that is nice.

one of my retirement funds was heavily invested in Emron..so you know how that ended. we lost $168M in one day..my return $000.00. my last one in 08 cost me over $80,000 due to their "bad investment, and recession" which was planed by them so they could collect the tax right off on their Corp tax..i only received $3400 so much for a happy retirement..

 

good luck to you all..

Depending on the account, we are between 11-16% YTD. I actively manage it myself through Fidelity and eTrade.

I have my 401K through Fidelity. My retirement investments are through a private firm called Williams.

 

I'm less than 10 years away from retirement and I've scaled back the aggressiveness ... MY YTD ROR is just under 9% as of June 1. I'm sure its less than that now, though.

Mine is 9.48% as of 5/31 through Bell State Bank and Trust. I lost just about half its value when the market took a crap although its rebounded nicely. My employer puts in 15% and I am currently am putting in another 5% every year. The last couple weeks will hurt though.

I actually made money when it collapsed. I had moved mine into bonds 4 months before as I saw it coming, then moved back after the crash which got me over 16% for part of 2009. Havent been getting to great of ROR lately though.

All i think about when i see ROR haha

 

 

Back on topic..

 

This year I have been averaging about 9.8%. Not too bad, its a mix between safe and aggressive. I go through Mass mutual for 401k and Roth.

Rate of return

 

The gain or loss on an investment over a specified period, expressed as a percentage increase over the initial investment cost. Gains on investments are considered to be any income received from the security plus realized capital gains.

[zach1990]

Ok I gotcha then. I don't think that applies to me then. My retirement is paid through pension and alopfi. I have dabbled with the ideas of purching stock once I can swing some income though
