Our company is attempting to move from basic agile to the scaled agile framework (SAFe). In preparation, we are trying to make clear who will fit into each role. There’s some confusion around the “business owner” role, and what titles might assume the role. Would an IT manager be an example of a “Business Owner”? IT director? Management on the business side?

Do all these managers and partners actually like me, or are they just being extra nice because all the other seniors quit? 🤔🤔🤔

What’s a reasonable fee for an accountant? Single filer, W2 employee. Simple investments but just need some help filing correctly given a move between states, a recent start to investing in more tax advantaged accounts and more etfs. Otherwise pretty simple. Should this be a few hundred dollars?

Not really a question, but maybe I’ll hit FIRE early since of the roughly ~20 or so stocks i keep in my portfolio, 3 of them were a substantial GME position I entered in September (and exited in the midst of the craze thankfully), RKT (expecting mortgage lenders to do well in the buying craze) and L Brands 😳. Never thought I’d hit 3x

Has anyone invested in TIPS (Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities) before? I’m considering opening an account for my children and have read something about interests from TIPS can be exempted from federal income tax if used for higher education. What’s the pros and cons of investing in 529 vs TIPS? TYIA!

My goal since early 2020 was to hit $100k NW by Dec 2021. It’s going to be March 2022 and I’m at $86k 😔 It’s mostly due to healthcare-related bills I didn’t anticipate.
Trying to decide if I should still go through with a 1 week trip to Spain in May that I’ve been wanting to do for years :/

Fire friendly car? I have a bmw and it’s paid off but it’s a ticking time bomb. I want something more reliable. Should I trade in and get a Toyota? For purposes of fire, I could get an older model since they last forever. But the new ones are tempting and I would pay maybe $200/mo. Worth it or just keel the bmw?

New to fire, started my first year in the workforce last year putting 13% + 1.5% employee match into a Roth 401k. This year I upped it 1% so 14+1.5% total now. For reference I made in the mid 80s in year one. Is this a safe contribution early in a career? Any tips, or suggestions on how to allocate my savings?

Engaged, and beginning to do joint retirement planning. I’move got IRAs, 401ks, the usual. My fiancé says she’s never opened an IRA because her parents started a program for her under New York life. Went to the website and it seems like it’s completely different - some annuities, some life insurance that you can withdraw early (?). Anyone ever go this route or have insight into it?

The BEARs have come out of hibernation!! It’s time! Hope you all learned how to make money in a bear market!

Hey guys, Im 25 and I have about 35k in the bank, 21k in retirement, 41k personal invested, 5k in crypto. No debt. Is it smart to invest more during this down market or save for a house/wedding or something else that’s smarter?

Should I throw my entire $6k of Backdoor Roth contributions into VTI or DCA in case of market downturn (ex: $2k per month)?

Any good articles or some other related fire posts talking about how the year 2020 has impacted them?

I believe there is McKinsey user in this bowl trying to scam people and teach them about crypto…please be vigilant

Mega Backdoor Roth IRA question/After-Tax contributions

Crosspost from a thread in the KPMG bowl discussing Mega Backdoor Roth IRA/After-Tax contributions. I wanted to ask a quick question for a “mistake” I may have made.

I forgot to change my contributions from after-tax to Roth + Traditional. A few paychecks went through as after-tax and hasn’t touched my $20,500 contribution limit for the year yet.

How will those funds be used/taxed? What are the implications here.

What’s your recommendation if my new 401k does not accept pension rollover? I think the only 2 roll over options left are traditional/Roth IRA, right? If I first roll over the pension to traditional IRA, and then immediately roll over the traditional IRA to my new 401k, will I still trigger the pro rata rule when I do backdoor Roth in the future? I have never contributed to a traditional IRA or done backdoor Roth so far.

Is it possible to live off 12k/year?

What should I do for consevative strategy of investment. I invested in RE before and never had time and brush up my knowledge in stock other than puting to my 401k. Now my paychecks per month is $10k. I spend maybe $3k for expense and misc stuffs. What is the best way to put maybe $3k to work? Buying big giant stocks? Or just some funds?
