Anyone here aiming to retire early? If so, what's your strategy? I think with a little tweaking I could potentially pull this off.

I am expecting an offer from Master Card for Senior Software Engineer position in O Fallon MO. Please let me know what kind of base salary I can expect with 11 yrs experience . I don’t wanna undersell but also trying to avoid being aggressive but quote a decent number which will be achievable. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Is 125k $ base a fair value for or I can pitch higher? They have a 15 to 20 % bonus on top of base pay and a 10% match on 401k which the recruiter keep highlighting.

401k Roth or traditional 401k?

Any US expats here care to weigh in on whether it makes sense to contribute to workplace pension plans if the plan is to be in UK <5 years?

Feeling cash strapped - Just bought a home and feeling cash strapped. Thinking about stopping 401k contributions for a year or so to get more cash. My firm matches 25% up to 6% of my contribution, so I will also lose this. Thoughts???

What % of your gross income do you all put into savings?? I have my 401k at 6% (or whatever the min to match is) and then immediate put about 20% straight to savings. Young, but worried for future!

Thinking about making the switch to BDO! Is there a traditional pension, like in B4?

What are you doing for a retirement plan as an independent consultant? Solo 401K, SEP IRA, etc.? Any recommendations on where to open an account?

Looking to add 2 members to our team in CT. Asset management based team. Full benefits, pension, and enough leads to make your mind numb!

401K fiduciary responsibilities and other requirements for a Safe Harbor Plan? I will be creating the plan under a C Corp holding company with operational LLCs. All employees will be informed of the 401K including rollover opportunities.

Hi Fishes, i have an experience of approx 3 years in the field of fin and pension and Currently without a job. Can anyone provide any reference for me in their companies would greatly appreciate it. (Remote working would be a plus)

Should I stop contributing to my 401K and put all my energy into paying off my student loan? Right now it's unconsolidated so there are rates between 3-6% and it's 20k.

Do y’all get moved around from hall to hall? I’ve been moved so many times. I have 2 more years until I can retire.

Tips for how you’re accumulating wealth with absolutely no financial inheritance/intelligence from parents? I want to retire early but am late in the investments game. I have a Roth IRA invested in a target date fund, max out my HSA and invest in REITS and ETFS, and contribute more to 401k when I have leftover $$. What do you guys do? Am i missing any smart moves here?

Can folks recommend good investment options for gaining Compound Interest, high returns long terms in your financial portfolio. Have regular 401k, share holding, kids 529 r plan, hsa saving account, very limited exposure and currently downward trending stock and crypto. Any recommendations? Also do folks have any fiduciary investment planners that u can recommend

My firm doesn’t match my 401k — still worth opting in?

Hi everyone just left my permanent role to go the contractor route. Currently employed through a staffing company so I am a W-2 but plan on going the independent route. They offer insurance and 401k. I understand I’ll need to start an LLC. Any advice or things you wish you’d have known when you first started? Would you advise I stay with the staffing? They take. 16% cut but the projects are lucrative

I work as a Business Development Manager at a sports club.. I’ve been given a couple of months “trial” in the 6 figure and above sales in which I don’t see going back to my other role on lower sales. This was a somewhat good move for me until I consider missing out on commission each month that was more than my salary. (£25k salary, over £2k per month commission)
How do I go about raising this concern? I believe I should be paid more now and at least change my job title?

I got bumped back to platinum elite on both Marriott and SPG.. after being gold for a few months now (have been on a local project for a year now)
Strange.

Why are boomers strolling around outside running errands? Is it time to reopen schools and fire up the economy?

Not the results I was hoping for this morning. Went for my first appointment before starting injections this evening. Only 9 follicles. Was told birth control can suppress some so they may just not be visible yet but feeling very panicked now despite the doctor saying it was ok for my age.

This journey is taxing.
Sending you all positive vibes ❤️

What to pursue next? CMA, CA, CFA or any other licenses?Have been working in big4 for more than two years now. Passed CPA. Hesitant to take CFA as it's a 3 yr commitment and not quite related to CPA.

Does anyone have experience or know of someone who went on a FWA (part-time) but didn't have kids? I'm unmarried and no kids but considering a move to 30 or so hrs/week for my sanity.

Do accountants usually do Black Friday shopping, or we just be up buying what we want, whenever we want...

Switched practice, found that I HATE the group dynamics. The work is dumb and not profitable. How soon is reasonable to ask to switch out, have to leave firm now?

Getting my CPA hours is like doing jail time
