How do folks feel about I bonds right now? They’re earning 9+% at the moment.

Any millennials here worried about their parents retirement? My parents are set financially but I’m worried about their lack of hobbies and social life. They watch a lot of news, politics, stock market, and sports. However not much more than that. I feel I’d be fine with that if they were in their 80s or older but they’re early 60s. Anyone succeed in getting their parents to an activity filled retirement?

Robinhood is going to be the patsy in this one. The funds will continue to be fine.

I NEED HELP WITH CREDIT SCORE issues: Two months ago my credit score went down by 30 to 40 points due to dad missing credit card payment by a day (i got added to as authorized user on his credit card for me to build credit but now I’m filled with regret). I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:

"Stock Market Today: Dow Starts Week on Strong Footing as Energy, Tech Gain"

It’s been an interesting 24 hours. So, you know I got out of the VIX Puts at 26 with a small loss. I bought a few DIA July 15 calls at the low at a 309 strike .13 so I did better than I would. Trading the technicals now with DIA and C Puts.

Does anyone carry a driving iron? If so how do you find it?

Thinking of dropping the $ to buy a Titleist U500 2-iron... 10 handicap and wondering if I'll be able to actually hit it solid. I see my scratch/plus handicap friends hitting bullets with theirs

Who’s buying Dave Portnoy’s BUZZ ETF this Thursday?

What happens to your shares if you are partially, or not even 1 yr vested at a pre-IPO company and the company goes public? When you continue on your vesting schedule, what price do you purchase your vested shares at?

Dumb question: can I set up a solo 401(k) through my RIA? Or does that type of account always go through a B/D? Cont.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

Hello everyone!

We (I and wife) are looking to buy a 2+ bed condo in Chicago area by this September.

We are doing research pretty much on our own for the houses. So, I am looking for any references for buyer's agents who could offer us good commission rebate and help us with just basic stuff like paperwork and reviewing disclosures etc.

Any restrictions for federal employees from investing in stocks or using robo-advisors like Wealthfront? If it matters, it’s a non sensitive role at VA.

What all things are there in CitiusTech pre-joing kit?

I’ve been working at a rather prestigious midsized firm in a big city for almost a year and a half now. I have been having a lot of trouble picking up work from senior partners. We are required to bill at least 150 hours per month to meet our requirement. My months are typically only 110-130 hours. It seems like the senior partners already have their “go to” associate for things. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i can increase my workload? I reach out for work pretty much weekly.

Hello,

I am filling itr for the first time so I'm a bit worried, as I bought some coins in exchange transferred to metamask, then swaped coins, the later transferred the coins back to exchange. Now I don't have the metamask address, so i dont know the transaction i did.

While filling itr do I have to disclose each trade or just the net profit?

Random partner asked a litigation-related question to a partner I frequently work with (i’m a transactional associate). My partner cc’d me and said for me to briefly look. Asked the library. They got me a great case. Sent it back. Now the random partner is asking for more cases in another circuit.

I haven’t done caselaw research since 1L and this isn’t even my practice… wtf do I do (I am fully utilized in my normal work and have a few deals closing soon…)

What’s the best travel rewards card you have and why?

Any superb restaurant recommendations in vail? My wife and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary and we just had our first child. Since most dinners these days entail standing over our kitchen island, want to go all out on the food. We already have Matsuhisa and Mt. Standard lined up, curious to hear about any others!

Morning all. I am looking for a favour/solid advice. I've been in the interview process for a dream role over the past month or so and just found out I didn't get the job after final round 🙃.

Unfortunately this isn't the first time this has happened during the past year searching. Looking for a SC level role within healthcare/public sector consulting firm. I know the job scene is a bit miserable currently but if anyone in the bowl is aware of a role I would love to have a chat.

Thanks all

How much are you all starting w to put into NFTs?

Last week I had to explain to my child what “politics” (as in office politics) is. My child is going to a new high school and wants to play volleyball. There was a 3 day open “tryout” for incoming freshman for 2 teams. After the first day, she noticed that
1) there were obvious favorites (coaches are not even hiding that fact);
2) some can’t even play and got on the team,
3) some that can obviously play but did not get on the team;
4) decision were obviously made before the first day was over.

Can anyone tell me about the Rosslyn practice in Deloitte? Is it any good? Are they winning so much that they get tired of winning so much?

I’m originally from Brazil and most of my investments are allocated there.

Brazilian fixed income products are paying 13.25% returns and I’m wondering if it’s a good idea to secure this return in Brazil or if now it’s a good time to build a portfolio with US equities?

(90% of my money is on my Brazilian portfolio)

Want to start saving/investing from this year. Got £11K and will have £2K a month to invest - any recommendations? I don’t want to take crazy risks, somewhere where this is steady long term growth. Have already maxed out pension and I assume next step is maxing out ISA? After that, what is best? (From UK)

Where is everybody putting their money right now?

I am already close to maxing my 401K, maxed my IRA, and purchased $10k in I-Bond. The remainder of my investing goes into a taxable brokerage account.

Anything else out there I should be considering in this terrible market? I know the I-Bond is the only thing that’s going to make money this year. 😔

Anyone have a lawyer or personal finance advisor they trust and recommend in NYC? Post MBA and new to the city; I need to buckle down and finally get a will and outside $ advice on taxes.

Thinking of moving $10,000 out of savings into a Vanguard mutual fund. Any recommendations for allocations? This $10,000 would most likely be used as part of a house down payment in the next 5-6 years

Went to a club yesterday and we paid $20 pp for cover just to find out that it was empty and there wasn't really a clubbing vibe. Bought a round of beers and we were so bored that we decided to leave in a few minutes... I feel robbed but at the same time I guess there's not much I can do, or is it? Im not sure if a CC charge back even applies in this case. Anyone had the same experience?

What's your target retirement savings? Target age? Combined or single?

Thoughts on brk.b for long term? Thinking of getting in at this point.

Just a discussion thread, but I feel like this is a good bowl to ask this. Does anyone else look at the vast majority of folks around you and think “damn, we are so over leveraged as a society?” Or am I just crazy?

Finally got over my fear of timing the market vs time in the market. Finally bought some voo and qqq today and plan to DCA the rest. Thanks guys!

Mortgage PITI payment would be about 50% of take home pay, but it fits easily within my budget. We max out 401k, HSA, and backdoor Roth. We also have about 150k in savings in case things get tight and saving an additional 1k per month. Is this still too tight?

How strict are they with HSA reimbursements? It seems people keep all their receipts but I haven’t seen or heard any instances where the irs requested proof.

What's a good percentage of cash to keep in your portfolio?

Next year, my wife and I will make $219,500 between us. If we contribute $15,500 to a traditional IRA, will that bring our MAGI down and make us eligible to contribute to a ROTH IRA as a married couple?
