@EY does your company offer any specials re: student loan refi? For example Deloitte gives an additional 0.25% off Sofi.

Kinda not sure if I should be refi-ing now, considering I’m looking at potential $75k -> $100k+ raise if I end up at EY in a few months. Trying to take advantage of low rates while they last tho, not sure what they’ll be like in ~2-3 months time

OP make sure if you refinance any public loans to understand the conditions. All federal loans have a freeze on interest rate appreciation right now, if those loans become refinanced through SoFi those conditions may not apply.

I don't think we do.

I think we get $500 for refinancing through some firm sponsored program. Also, wouldn’t expect interest rates to increase for 12+ months.

Just pay it of instead of keeping it around, especially if you get a 100k raise like you mentioned.

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.

Hi all! I work at a nonprofit and am looking to leave the organization.

How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
