Has anyone placed 401K/other investment funds into an insurance “sleeve” to protect assets? I don’t know anyone who’s done this but I want to be sure I’m maximizing my finances. Other suggestions?

Close to retirement, so moving a portion of 401k to a fixed income annuity with guaranteed 5 percent annually and .75 percent fee. No commission or any other fees. This is being offered by Fidelity by New York Life.

Any advice on how to spend less money? I have Mint and know the basics of personal finance but have found it hard to adhere to a budget. Decent income for a recent grad and no crazy debt, but money seems to go so fast.

I allocate enough to meet the 401k match, but have had a hard time building a savings.

Any advice appreciated!

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!
