3 years out of school. $30k in student debt at 4.2% fixed. Making enough money to max out 401k and IRA and save on top of that. Thoughts on paying off my debt fully or investing elsewhere?

I’m 22 and I make $70k a year. No student loans, no CC debt, and I max out my Roth, 401k, and HSA. Do I deserve to spend $2k on a handbag or is that just silly because 1) who do I think I am to buy such an expensive handbag in my tax bracket and 2) The rest of my closet is mostly h&m and zara so I’m thinking the handbag would look mismatched to how “lux” the rest of my clothes/shoes look. Oh and I drive a beater! Ive alwaysloved nice handbags since I was young but I don’t feel like I deserve it.

Does contributing to your TSP deduct from your yearly max for 401k?

Does anyone mind sharing how they are saving for the future? Or just securing yourself? I have stocks/bounds, 401k, regular (1) savings/ (2) checking, about to open a self found Roth IRA. But, what else am missing? Should I do a health found? I’m also starting a bit later at 34, so I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do. Any advice?

What do people do with the money they save for a car and house? Put it in savings, invest it, put it in 401k, etc.?

Recently got my H1B visa, but I am not sure whether I'll stay in the US for a longtime. Wondering if investing in a 401k is advisable (company match up to 5%) ? Should I instead invest the money on my own?

Sorry if this sounds redundant or just silly. I’m 21, just started my personal & professional journey. I am currently paying my loans (24k), I’m maxing my 401k, and opened my Roth IRA (probably won’t be able to max for tax year 2020). HSA isn’t an option yet, still on mum’s plan. Lastly, I am putting money aside for an E fund. Question is, aside from the accounts mentioned above, should I be doing anything else? I am confused if I should have another portfolio just for investing alone.

Apologies if a repeated query. My new employer gives the option to contribute to 401k pre tax as well as post tax (Roth). Any recommendations from the group? I realize that the total still has to be $19500 or less for the year. Also, is the year from Jan-Dec or April-March?

I’m setting up my 401k contributions and would like to save up more. Do you have any tips if you’ve reached the $19500 limit or on track to hit it?

Has anyone tried rolling their Roth or traditional 401k at EY into their IRA while still at EY? I'm thinking of rolling my 401k balance to my IRA for more flexibility to invest in stocks/ETFs vs just mutual funds. Is there any value in keeping the funds in a 401k vs rolling them into an IRA?

I get really random 7.25 “transactions” marked in my Vanguard 401k that are marked as “Other” (whereas my other transactions are “Contributions”). Anyone know what could be causing this?

Those of you that buy ETFs, do you have ETFs for small cap, mid to large cap, and total stock market? For example, I have VBK (small cap), IUSG (mid to large), and VOO (s&p 500 tracker). Looking for a sanity check on if this is a good approach for 10-15 year investment plan that’s outside of a 401K.

What is DB Qualified Pension Plan? I do not remember i contribute money into this?

So apparently Fidelity was showing my fully vested amount when I wasn't fully vested in an older 401k. Always fun finding out you're $6500 poorer than you thought.

If TX turns blue, trump should just retire from all public life.

Please don’t judge lol. I have been doing reading a lot of reading but can’t decide so asking here. What’s better, Roth or Traditional 401K? I’ve been doing 10% traditional and 7% Roth. Is that good or bad or what?

Can someone explain the options with 401k if leaving or have left your emoloyer

This has ALWAYS confused me - Employees can contribute up to $19.5k for 401k, however, the defined contribution maximum limit from all sources is $58k (including employer contributions) for 2021. Why the heck would an employer contribute ~$38k of its own money towards your 401k when you can only contribute $19.5? Basically why would a company contribute beyond just matching your 401k contributions?

HELP! I verbally accepted a job offer at a company yesterday and hours later I got a call from a job I was more interested in with better pay, vacation time, and 401k match. I’m talking double vacation and 401k match. They know I already accepted something else and were motivated to move quickly. Assuming all goes well with this other company and the interview, is it terrible to go back on my current job offer? I haven’t signed anything yet and I wouldn’t start until next month.

Trying to figure out my next paycheck. With 0 withholdings, in NYC, no 401k or insurance included, how much would I take home per pay period at $92k salary?

How much did you have saved up 1 year out of college? I have 36k in 401k, IRA, savings accounts, and taxable investments. I always feel like I'm underachieving and really obsess over saving more.

Looking for opportunities in M&A advisory, but not sure where to begin. 3 YOE but have not had many opportunities to sharpen financial modeling skills / deals knowledge. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is anyone else not (at all) intellectually stimulated by consulting after a couple years? Came from industry, learned a fair bit, but these days I don't find myself doing anything that has me learning anything new, even though each role has more responsibility than the last. It's all more of the same. Is this normal?
