General tax filing questions - I am filing two state returns, one resident and one nonresident (was working remotely in the nonresident state for a bit over a month). My tax filing software has me getting a refund of the nonresident state income tax I paid and no change to my resident state income tax return. Does that seem right? I would expect a credit on my resident state return and no change to my nonresident state return but admittedly not my area of expertise at all

Is it foolish to put more then $1-2k into an S&P tracked index fund per month? I’ve finally reached the stage as a senior associate where I’ve been able to save a nest egg so much less fear of getting fired and loans are close to paid off. I still live like I have my junior associate salary but have been socking cash in savings/house down payment over the years. I’ve heard an S&P tracked index fund is a slow and steady way to grow wealth and I’d feel comfortable putting in $2-3k/month toward one

H1B peeps, which tax preparation software y’all using? Any recommendations?

Now that a lot of us have pretty good packages, which TAX REGIME is better when salary is upwards of 30L in a year?

I read somewhere that if you have nominal deductions (just 80C,House rent, Medical Insurance) to show then the new tax regime is better.

Your thoughts?

Advice to young lawyers. Read a book.

I saw the thread about savings and many young lawyers (20s and 30s) don’t know how to open up a brokerage account or invest in their 401k. I know they don’t teach personal finance in school (though they should!), but my advice is that you should go to your local library and read a book about the subject. You have the skills necessary but you must invest in yourself. No one will look out for you.

Does ESPP make sense? Most companies deduct a portion from monthly paycheck to accrue over a period and then do the purchase at offering end. During this period of time, most tech stocks would already appreciated anyway to offset the 15% discount. Anyone with me?

How do people afford to buy $1M houses in Chicago? Surely not everyone buying them is rich (which is somewhat of a subjective term). My wife and I are 30 and have a combined income of almost $300k and trying to buy something that expensive seems asinine yet people do it. Am I missing something?

Have you been able to save up lately? I’ve been doing a lot of $500-700+ weekend trips (rent car, airbnb) to remote areas, buy more alcohol and order in more to compensate for “not going out”. I’ve spent all that I’ve saved in the first three months of quarantine :(

Hi, guys! This maybe off-topic but wanted to ask this. I’ve accepted an offer from a firm and currently serving my np. My total np is 90 days which I’m serving completely. Had to ask the prospective company to shift my joining by a month. Since there’re still 2 and a half months into joining now I’m always paranoid thinking if offer would be revoked and other negative things like that. This is my first switch so I’m even more stressed. Need some suggestions how to deal with it.

I have been dating my gf for 6 months now. She’s a nice enough girl to hang out with but recently I’ve been feeling as though the effort in the relationship is really imbalanced. For example, she never offers to pay for dinner, never offers to cook for us (I do it), never buys gifts and doesn’t want to have sex (she she’s a virgin and wants to be sure I’m committed before she’s ready but she is happy receiving oral though).
