1099 or w-2 ? I have been given the option though the company prefers w-2. It’s a day rate booking couple of months or more (no end date). I already have 1099 from similar company this year and am leaning towards 1099, but I don’t want to be difficult. I do take home office deduction and they are not supplying any equipment. Suggestions?

I just heard recently that if you refinance and your house appraises at 20% more than the amount owed, you can remove PMI. Is this correct? Getting a divorce and trying to keep the house but moving from a VA to a traditional loan and would rather not pay PMI if I don’t have to. House was purchased for $460k no money down (VA loan), refinanced at $450k to lower payments $400/month, now have $430k left on the loan... would it have to appraise for $516k?

So I've been reading about opportunity zones. Is anyone investing in the area? I had some questions I wanted to ask

House flip question

Hey all newbie here. My husband and I are living that Double Income No Kid life wanting to (Financial Independence) Retire Early.

Thanks a bunch!

I currently have both of my retirement IRAs in SPY (Roth & Traditional). I rarely ever see anyone here invested in SPY, it's usually a vanguard fund like VOO, VTI, VXX etc. What's you're reasoning behind that, and alternatively if you're in SPY, why?

New to trading and investing in equity. Have $200k in equity and $20k in MUNI bonds. How do you plan to diversify?

I’m originally from Brazil and most of my investments are allocated there.

Brazilian fixed income products are paying 13.25% returns and I’m wondering if it’s a good idea to secure this return in Brazil or if now it’s a good time to build a portfolio with US equities?

(90% of my money is on my Brazilian portfolio)
