I usually solicit quotes from three different banks (large, small, credit unions) then compare. I’m sure there are plenty of online platforms where you can get multiple quotes.

Also consider mortgage companies. A benefit of banks is that they can underwrite the mortgage, so they can personalize it to your needs.

I have so much anxiety about money that I can’t even think about it.

Married, 2 kids, dual income.

Home equity: $200k
Gross annual HHI: 234k.
401k: ~60k
Emergency: $12k
Savings: 20k
Debt: One low-interest car payment

We just spent 60k on a lot down payment with the dream of building in a few years.

We don’t budget at all. And we don’t do anything else with our money - like investing in the market.

We just went on in 3.5k family vacation and I feel so guilty about it.

Hi all - this is my first post here and would love your input. I have several open positions in my org and find that the salaries are all over the place. I have PM's (PM1) with 3 years experience asking for 110K - is that accurate with that you are seeing? Additionally BA's with the same level of experience asking for 130K. Seems really high for people with seeming little experience. Please let me know what you think.

I’m married. I have saved $200k in traditional IRA (after rollovers from employer) and my husband has only saved $25k in his traditional IRA. We are doing much better financially and are looking for ways to catch up and save more for retirement. Can we convert my husband’s balance to a Roth and pay those taxes and then do back door Roth contributions in his name? Backdoor Roth for me really isn’t feasible unless I roll my traditional to my ER 401k plan but investment options aren’t great.

Most people talk about NW from a present/past point of view (e.g. How much I'm worth, how I got here).
I think it's important to be sure to do forecasting on your future net worth too.
It helped me immensely to visualize the compound impact of my investments.
Also, it helps you to run scenarios (e.g. What if I start saving 100/month more, what if I buy a 60k car) and get a feel of their impact on your future financial situation.
Are you doing the same? Any thoughts on the topic?
