You’re with a good company. I’m with TD Ameritrade and am invested similarly. I’m seventy three. If you’re approaching 70 1/2 yrs and have any IRA’s be sure you’re advisor is tuned in to your age as you’ll have to start withdrawing at that age. And, if you don’t the penalty is very severe. There’s a table that uses a formula based upon mortuary tables that calculates your minimum required withdrawal. Anyway, good luck.👍

My IRA account calculates my required redemption and cashes out that amount once a year. It’s automatic. Then I take out additional funds to ‘use up’ the space remaining before federal taxes are triggered. Those funds, to a large part, go into the index fund to get higher returns -— and risk -— than if I left them in the IRA.
