I am pretty new to the site and the concept of FIRE. I found this site one day when I was googling something about retirement, since I am not overly fond of my job and I would love to quit given the chance. My SO and I already live quite frugally, we are in our early 30's and hope to have a kid or two in the next couple years. I should also note that my SO is enlisted Active Duty in the US Military, and we expect to get his pension when he retires in about 7 years. I am currently employed as well, and I anticipate I should be through the end of 2017, but that is never something we count on being true due to the realities of military life. My spreadsheets say that we should be able to FIRE in 7 to 14 years, depending on different variables.
We have no debt.
We have about $45K spare cash.
Our savings are as follows:
a TSP (SO's Military, mine civilian) each
a Roth IRA each
a Betterment taxable account
an old 401k from one of my previous jobs that is not fully vested
some CDs
My Questions:
1) The spare cash... we would like to get that invested in the next couple days. Should we add that to the Betterment, or open a Vanguard account? Why?
2) Should we max out our TSPs? I anticipate our taxable income will be generally around $90K next year if nothing changes.
3) That 401K from one of my previous jobs bugs me... what should I do with it?
