What is the best budget app? I have been using mint, but mint doesn’t work well with splitwise (which my partner and I use together).

Trying to avoid paying an accountant, can I actually write off home office space/mileage if I was just permalancing for 3 months last year? Shouldn’t the 7 months of W2 take care of this 1099 shit?

I’ve gotten massive returns by making huge bets on good coins. XLM is my current darling: FairX, ICO platform, partnerships, use cases and fast payments.

What stocks are you betting on for 2018?

I’m 26 and have ~40k sitting in my savings account. Annual income 140k. Maxing out 401k. No debt. Planning to invest 25k but don’t know where to start. Should I get a wealth manager? What is the best way to approach this?

What’s the best credit card for a married couple who shared finances? We were thinking American Express but kind of lost.

I max out my 401k and I have a decent emergency fund. I want to keep saving. From what I’ve been reading my next steps are an IRA and then a brokerage account. Questions:
1. How do I pick between a Roth vs a traditional IRA?
2. Once I hit the max of $6k - only then do I focus on brokerage account?

Anyone concerned with the dip in the market now? Both brokerage and 401k has taken hit. What are different things you folks are doing??

Been dollar cost averaging for a few years now into index funds. Currently down $15k. Sometime tell me I’m doing it right…🤦

The account dropped the register down the flight of stairs and it shattered into a million pieces. Fear not the account says, for it was already depreciated to $0.

What does 401k mean?

Finally I am a tax payer of India.... After 3.2 years in TCS, will pay tax on 8k😂😜😜😜

Hi fishes

Also what could be the in hand salary in my case.

Has anyone used equal wt. index funds like RSP. Is it worth it?

Has anyone made a big bet to try to attempt to retire early? It seems like everyone in this bowl focuses on traditional, conservative investing. Going that route I’m gonna be a wage slave all my life

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?

My current package is 15 LPA fixed 5 years of experience. How much should I ask in the next switch?

Name one thing every engineer should have.

Anyone sell to Zillow? Got an amazing offer from them, but naturally my floor decided to start deforming right before inspection. No water damage - I can get someone out here to fix it ASAP, but wondering if it’s worth the hassle. Mostly worries inspector will think there’s water or foundation issues

asking for career advancement after an offer, does that sound greedy? I got a job offer which I am excited about but I wanna ask the hiring manager first about career advancement, how should I do the approach?

I literally cannot stomach to be around my in laws any longer. My wife and I are in neither political camp and we pretty much have the perspective that no matter what the outcome is every 2 and 4 years isn’t going really affect our lives all that great. We just have the attitude that “things happen, but why let that affect our daily happiness?” My in laws are retired, bored, and do nothing but share Fox News videos on Bookface and have just become so angry. (Cont’d)

Anyone have a standing desk recommendation between the Fully Jarvis vs Uplift V2 vs Autonomous Smartdesk 2? Leaning towards the Jarvis but the Autonomous one seems 50% cheaper, but can’t really tell what the drawbacks are according to their website/reviews

Anyone have a good office chair recommendation? Really not trying to spend more than $150 but willing to go to $200 if there is a really good recommendation.

Thanks!

When a company convenience store charges more or equal to gas station prices, I think this is pretty much a red flag.

Any books/self help materials for someone who is constantly worrying (and waste a lot of unnecessary time)? E.g. No matter if i pass or fail an interview, there is always something to worry about. The worrying/anxiety multiplies when I proceeded further in the interview stages. Now that I signed the offer and is pending background checks, my anxiety is off the roof as it itches closer to my starting date.

Looking for a home office chair…I need something really ergonomic/comfortable but given the visibility of the office in the house the wife wants something stylish. She keeps calling all my ideas ‘gamer chairs’ even though they’re definitely not. Anyone have any chairs they really like that may be worth looking at? I feel like I’ve looked everywhere (Steelcase, Herman Miller, humanscale, Haworth, xchair, etc).

I’m considering straightening my teeth. What are your experiences with Invisalign vs. Smile Direct vs. other options? Any big differentiators?

I’m currently signed on a contract for my first house for new construction that has gas heating. I have not lived in a house with this before and this entire time have been battling the anxiety of it even with detector. The house, location, and price is all everything I could dream of. Any advice on what to do in this situation?
