Is anyone rich here?
If 15% of your income equals $1000 then you are making 8300 per month . You should be maxing out your 401k and a Roth IRA. Although a tax deferred IRA might be wiser . I don’t believe taxes will go up on sup 200k incomes in the next 20 years . If anything they will go down . IMO…. Remember the money invested will lower your tax liability on your entire income . Which means not only do you not pay tax on those dollars but also drop the remaining income into a lower % tax bracket .
You could dedicate maybe 600 per month to high yield riskier stocks or funds .
