Does anyone have a good tax person recommendation. Specifically that person that's so good it's scary like how are they pulling this off they are definitely worth it kind of tax person 😂.

Does anyone know if the 10% penalty and if taxes are waived on a death of a beneficiary? A friend of mine’s 17 year old pass away. I was wondering due to the circumstance, is there any way he can get around paying extra money by doing a 1035 exchange, rollover, withdrawal. Anything out there? Suggestion are welcome.

If I have two 401ks (current job and previous job), does the 19k limit apply to both of them together or 19k each?

Thoughts on Marcus vs. Ally vs. Wealthfront? Looking for a place to park my emergency savings

I am doing a back door Roth IRA through Vanguard and while everything makes sense to me, I am unsure if an additional $6000 be invested for a non working spouse. We satisfy the criteria but two questions - 1) Is this still valid I.e., $12k can be invested for 2021? And 2) Any insight into how this is done - Vanguard doesn’t let me add more than $6k as it’s above the individual limit. I tried searching the bowl for specific answers but wasn’t successful. Inputs appreciated.

Partners - Do you ever take vacations?

I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal? I can't tell if it's standard for big law partners to not take time off, if the dynamics for my group may be different (only 1 partner in the entire group), or it the partner I work with is just a masochist.

Or do I need to file Married Seperately?

Maxed out Roth IRA contributions when I wasn't eligible for 2021 (got a salary bump mid year). Do I need to recharacterize? It's a very small account that's been open for only two years. That's the only IRA account I own. Do I need to open a traditional IRA and roll over 6k + realized gains into that account and keep the Roth IRA. So confused how this works and got conflicting information from Merrill.
