Had some pretty big expenses while moving and credit limit used increased from 2% to 10% — credit score dropped by 20 points. Will it recover after the statements been paid?

Nothing changes if you're within 30%. The drop is likely due to some hard pulls on credit, and could be associated with the move, like setting up new utility accounts.

Yup.

Try credit karma, it will tell you what changed your score. If it was an increase in spend then it will go back up after you pay it back down. But I’m always at around 10% and my score is close to 800

It will go back up. Also, request a credit increase, and such changes will have a lesser impact on your score

It will recover next month. Don’t stress about it

Hi! I just got converted to full time as a intern, and received this email about 401k which I don’t quite understand. Does the 3% means the match that company gives to me for free? So I don’t have to contribute anything to my 401k while getting free 3% match money? Thank you!!

2. Be flexible with home showings. Maybe your possible buyers won't appreciate your house's potential if there are dogs running around or too many people inside.
3. Respond promptly to a purchase offer. Some people don't have much time to wait for an answer. Be quick and responsive!

I started maxing my 401k from year 1 and I hope to have $5 million or more by the time I retire around 60. Wouldn’t it make sense to put all of my yearly $19,500 401k contribution to ROTH 401k instead of traditional 401k?

My reasoning is that I would pay 35% tax now and my remaining 65% would grow tax-free in ROTH 401k…. versus traditional 401k where I deposit 100% but every distribution will be taxed 35% assuming I make a lot in retirement.
