Looking to start a bridge account. Any recommendations who to work with, or do I just open a account on line with a broker?

I’ve accounts with Merrill Lynch and WellsTrade. Wells Trade’s website is much better. Easier to analyze the data and easier to make trades. The transactions seem to clear quicker too. No fees on stock and ETF trades.

Real estate is how you accumulate generational wealth. Facts are facts.

I’m 44 and you miss my point. I said I’m going to be completely debt free. Cars and houses are mine out right. I have $500k in investment.

Looking to open a bridge account to retire early and have money to live on before I can access my investments.

It’s too late now but I wouldn’t have put all my savings towards paying off the house early in life. That money would have grown exponentially in the stock market compared to the amount of interest you saved on the mortgage. But there’s deff worse things you could of done than paying off a mortgage. You can do the Roth conversion ladder to access retirement money early without penalty. Just google roth conversion ladder

For me, the security of owning my home outright outweighed what the stock market offered. Owning my own home gives me full control of my future. I also have plenty money in savings, have a 401k and Roth investment, with all the disposable income, I’m looking to invest it so I can retire at 60. That’s only 17 years away for me.

bridge accounts are not the same as retirement bridges. I was thinking of the former and you meant latter. fair enough.
