Topics
Nicole Lappin: 节目讨论了获得加薪后如何进行理财规划,重点是如何让这笔额外收入保值增值,避免生活方式膨胀。建议听众首先庆祝,然后制定明确的理财计划,包括设立紧急备用金、偿还高息债务、投资高收益储蓄账户和短期国债等。还建议听众根据自身情况设立不同的储蓄子账户,例如房屋基金、子女教育基金等,并定期定额投资。 针对Molly的情况,Nicole Lappin建议她将部分资金用于高收益储蓄账户,以获得更高的利息收益;将部分资金用于短期国债,以获得更高的投资回报;并考虑偿还汽车贷款,以降低利息支出。同时,建议她为子女的529教育储蓄计划定期定额投资,并根据自身需求调整投资策略。 Molly: Molly最近获得40%的加薪,以及一笔6万美元的遣散费和价值15-20万美元的股票。她希望将这笔额外收入进行投资理财,同时保持现有生活水平,避免生活方式膨胀。她目前的财务状况良好,拥有7.5万美元的储蓄、价值15-20万美元的股票以及200万美元的投资组合,但仍有一些高息债务(汽车贷款)。她希望能够制定一个清晰的理财计划,以更好地管理和增值自己的财富,并为子女的教育和未来的生活做好准备。
