When a company transitions 401k providers, and funds are being mapped over, do the funds stay invested throughout the entire process? Or are there typically a few days out of the market? Cont...

🐠 fam - Spouse and I have both quit (not LOA or sabbatical) our jobs recently and taking a break for few months to figure things out. Need some pointers on best health insurance options for this interim period. COBRA appears to be very expensive. Help!

I’ve been promised a promotion since Jan. ‘22, and each month it seems to get “delayed because of finance issues with client” (huge multinational corp.) and other issues with in house HR/finance depts. I absolutely love my job, my boss, perks, benefits, & it’s all remote. I can’t shake the feeling I’m being led on. Last update they gave was Oct. now they’re saying it won’t be until Dec. I’d hate to leave but I feel like it’s the only way to move up. All thoughts/similar experiences welcome. Thx.

Tax return question: last year I took a loan from my 401k, and rolled my 401k to a rollover IRA bc change of job before I paid off the loan. I was told I had till the end of the year to pay it back. So I deposited the balance into the rollover IRA last Dec. I got a 1099R for that balance as taxable income. Anyone knows which IRS form I should fill out to tell IRS that I paid that money back to my rollover IRA?

Is it still worth putting money into a 401K if you're an expat and don't intend on retiring in the US, or even staying more than a few years? Are there major penalties for cashing in before retirement age?

Is it possible to work 1-2 years as a junior associate at a super boutique doing a combination of fraud/abuse and transactional work in the healthcare space and then lateral to biglaw to practice securities law? I’m happy doing health law, but it’s not what I want to do long term and I worry the longer I stay in that space, the harder it will be switch to the kind of law I truly want to build a career in.

Hey fish, I’m coming up on a year post PhD and this job has drained a lot out of me. There’s not a lot I enjoy: overpromising partners, annoying clients, endless iterations (from either client or partner), poorly scoped KOL interviews, long hours… The only reason I haven’t quit is the US healthcare system’s reliance on employer provided insurance. Where can I go with ~1YOE post PhD? It feels like nearly every job requires a lot more and I just don’t have it in me to push through another 1-2y…

How to I make changes to my healthcare?

If you live in a state that has WEP and GPO and you have your 40 quarters you may want to contact your congressmen. The social security fairness act is being voted on next month. Even if you don’t have your own ss, but are married, this will affect survivor benefits. I am not a fan of asking the government for anything free., I have earned this and should get it. I have met full retirement age and can get the ss that I earned. I have started taking it because it reduces to 1/3 in retirement

Does an MBA make sense for me? Making 150k tc, 25yo, wouldn't be trying to switch industries, would have to go into debt to pay for it. The only real benefits I would get is maybe an increase in salary and a network.

I started taking Adderal, 2.5 g which is not really a lot. It didn’t really help with my focus, instead I felt restless and somehow nervous and really thirsty. And it made me clench my teeth. I do grind my teeth during nighttime but never experienced this in the daytime. Does it take time to get used to it?
