I would suggest you pay off your credit card bills

I did. Put the cards in my dresser and went cash/debit only. And forced myself to pay the cc bill immediately when I got paychecks

In all seriousness, look into consolidating/refinancing. And if you could get a deal where you can balance transfer with no interest for the first xyz months that would be helpful for you.

Real answer. Just stop using them. And when you're paying them off, pay as much as you can above the minimum! I'd suggest if you have multiple debts to do the Avalanche method. Pay off the one with the least balance and clear it for a good psychological effect. Then go to the next.

Our company is considering offering 401K employer match. We are about 200 employees venture backed company. We have about 60% participation mostly the non HCEs and only some key employees contribute. We always pass top heavy test and wpassed the 2019 ADP/ACP test. We are aggressively hiring and project there will be increase in participation, particularly if we offer the match. Given this information would it make sense to continue with a traditional 401k plan or go with safe Harbor plan?

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?
