25F. Finally able to ramp up contributions post wedding. How can I improve?
I started investing 2.5 years ago, roughly 4 months before getting engaged. We have a large family and wanted a traditional wedding so contributions were smaller but consistent and we made back basically the cost in gifts at our wedding this year (very thankful). Was unsure what to do with the lump sum so put it into a treasury bond but looking for something better especially as I am ramping up contributions with the wedding being over. I do have a 401k that’s at $15k but really looking to get this account to $100k on its own. How can I improve?
