[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All 5k to Roth IRA![/quote]That's actually more sensible then it seems on the surface, as long you invest it conservatively (cf. http://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Roth_IRA_as_an_emergency_fund)- however, the poster in question is 20. That conservative investing is draining your compounding potential. That's the point in life where some Dave Ramsey style sacrifice to build an emergency fund AND fully fund a roth IRA in something appropriately risky can really pay off, both when you get around to starting a family and in retirement.[/quote]
