How do you ladies maintain your espadrille wedges? I have a favorite that I don’t really want to retire but I think it now needs new soles but don’t know if that’s even possible?

Take them to a good cobbler. They can pull off the old sole and put on a new one. Rubber soles are easy for them to replace. Do this before it wears down all the way in the back heel if possible

Depends on how bad they are they may be able to fix it anyway

What are the soles made of?

Rubber but it’s wearing out. I struggle as I bought this pair in another country and it’s the most comfy ever!

I’ve seen a couple posts lately with comments saying that people should not use a Roth 401k. Does the logic below capture the spirit of that concept?
1. Use trad. 401k to reduce taxable income now. Convert to trad. IRA once retired, then convert gradually to Roth IRA (ladder, SEPP, etc.) at lowest marginal tax rate
2. Use Roth IRA (and/or backdoor Roth) to take advantage of tax free growth and ability to withdraw principal early without penalty

5 years away from Reserve retirement. O3, O4 in 1-2 years. Retire as an O4. Anyone else been sticking it out and at the firm? Feel like it's going to be hard. I almost got out, but then when I stopped seeing the extra $600 a month, and realized what I would be losing with free healthcare and a pension...just doesn't seem like it's the best move to get out. Start grad school next year too. My commander is awesome and the unit is flexible, which is why I think I could stay. Just don't want it to hurt my consulting career. Thoughts?
