What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k

Tax help please:
Turbo tax is telling me I’m about to get hit with a $3k+ tax bill. I got married in 2019 (my income is 130k, hers is 60k) but I didn’t have extra pay withheld on my W4 in 2020. Last year it wasn’t an issue, so what could have changed? We bought a house in 2020, so I would have expected to have a bigger credit from that, not a larger bill? Any help would be great here.

So after you max your investment accounts (401K, IRÁ, emergency savings. etc) what do you do next?

Thoughts on EquityZen’s Robinhood offer that opens today ($63/share at a $61B valuation?)

I was given a 15k, 0% loan to pay off my student loans upfront from a family member. Would it be better to invest this money and just pay back my family member monthly since the 4% rate on my loans would be less than (hopefully) the amount gained in the market?

Is Deloitte allowed to use Robinhood? It's not a robo adviser and obviously you wouldn't invest in your clients. Or wealthfront?

I own two commercial rentals in heart of a tier 1 city. Opposite to my space is a mom and pop store. I have become somewhat friends with the owners of the mom and pop store over the years and they would do one of favors for me when I asked to take care of the rentals. Now the commercial rental is vacant and I have been approached by a mid size chain for potential agreement. The dilemma is that the big box store is direct competition to the mom and pop store. What would you do ?
