2022 - How are we becoming millionaires folks? What are legitimate (not MLM, drop-shipping, affiliate marketing, Facebook ads) ways to make money besides our primary incomes?

For me: It’s credit spread {options} trading. That is the only one single thing that has worked for me.

I don’t get it: Why would anyone invest, for example, in a 6% dividend yield etf with a 0.50% ER (ie EMHY) instead of a 9% dividend yield etf with a 2.5 ER (ie YYY)? Wouldn’t you still be getting better results with the expensive one?

What’s a good budget for rent if I’m making 138k + 14k sign on in NYC? I’ve got like 10k in student loans and about 5k in credit cards. No other obligations.

During my interview process I clearly stated my salary expectations of 95k-105k. They came back with an offer at 80k. Is it even possible for us to come closer to a better agreement with them being so low? All other aspects of the job are in line with what I'm looking for, so I really want to make this work.

Leased a new Mercedes and the dealership filed for new registration two months after the purchase. Now the temporary tags have expired and they won’t send me a new one. What can I do in this situation?

What is the protocol with talking with recruiters? I'm not pre se looking to move right now but if something with more money and flexibility regarding location opens up then I'm not opposed.

Traveling to Delhi from USA and I have a long layover 12+ hours to get a connecting flight to my final destination in India. Traveling with 2 little kids…any help, advise will be appreciated 🙏

PARTNERS: two questions —1. If you see an associate has really low hours for the month, do you imagine them chillen on a beach somewhere or do you consider they probably spent most of their days sitting in front of the computer being “available”? 2. If you send an associate a random e-mail on a weekend like “Can you pull X and send to Y”, would you get annoyed if they responded saying they weren’t by a comp or would you consider it reasonable that they wouldn’t be by a comp on a weekend?

Currently trying to figure out how to create effective marketing strategies for people in the 60+ age group, any pointers from people who have done this before?

One of the worst double standards in corporate america.

Companies especially startups expect you to not keep interviewing when you accept a job offer. “It can deteroriate your brand.”

But companies would replace you in a heartbeat for almost any reason. Including interviewing a candidate who will replace you (you will be fired as soon as they find a person).

So companies can fuck with the little guys but we can’t look for our best interest?

If I’m buying something online, like a camera or binoculars, is it unethical to order two competing models so I can try them out side by side and keep one with the intent of returning the other? Really tough to compare when trying to avoid physically going in store.

I work as an AGM in a busy restaurant. Been working there for just over a year, and haven't had a single raise. I now only make 0.50 cents more than even the lowest paid shift lead but I am doing a lot more work. I'm no longer satisfied with these conditions. Should I try to negotiate a raise or look for other opportunities?

If I should negotiate, any tips?

Hi FIRE friends! My mom is going to get about 250k from the sale of her house in a few days. She’s 58 and has very little saved for retirement (immigrated to the US at 45 so only about 50k in her retirement savings currently). She’s maxing out 401k, Roth IRA, and HSA. I’d love to get all of your thoughts, where do you think she can put the money from the sale of her home?

I’m considering building up my I bonds to eventually replace my 6 month expenses emergency savings account. Any downsides I’m not considering? If I slowly ramp up and ladder, I can partially withdraw any amount if I need to after a year. Even with lower inflation in the future, I’m guessing it’s going to beat a savings account yield. Thoughts?

Single and childless but would like kids. High income and maxing out all tax advantaged accounts I can but was thinking of starting a 529 in my own name to be transferred to future kids. If I don’t have kids maybe transfer it to my nephew. Thoughts, pros, cons?

I’m curious why more non-US citizens interested in FIRE don’t go live in a no/low tax jurisdiction even for a few years e.g. Dubai, some Caribbean islands. I get that some people will have family circumstances (e.g. elderly parents to look after) so it won’t be possible for them, but for a significant proportion it will be an option

Can someone help me with this? I had a low utilization since pandemic, I.e., ~sub 5%, but never missed any payments. Would credit score be impacted if only one line of credit with a low utilization?

Too few accounts currently paid as agreed
FICO®

Scores consider the number of accounts that are paid as agreed. Your score was impacted because the number of these accounts is too low, or because you've missed payments recently on some of your accounts.

My monthly salary is around $6.4k after-tax. Living in NYC. Do you think it’s reasonable that I pay:
- about $1.5k on rent
- about $500 on utilities and subscriptions
- about $900 on student loan
- about $2k on food and etc.
My saving goals is around $3k so been trying to adjust my monthly spending.

I contribute 10% of my paycheck to my employee share purchase plan. Is this smart to do given the tax repercussions behind it? Is it smarter to invest less in that and more in my Roth or 401k?

Did ok on a real estate investment and will have around $200k net to reinvest. Looking for opinions on short to mid-term investments for consideration. Moderate to high risk tolerance. TIA

Do you have a UTMA/UGMA account in addition to a 529? How can I make sure my kid still qualifies for *some* scholarships? (Want them to have some skin in the game..)

Anyone here over 70% in VOO or VTI? Is that a smart move for less-involved investor?

For the past 2-3 years, I have obsessively tracked my net worth/income trends/investment performance over time. I checked my trends just now, and OMG I hit the 300k net worth mark right around Christmas. I guess I haven’t looked at my dashboard for a month. This feels so cool. I want to shout it from the roof! I can’t really brag about this to my friends, so I’m sharing here! 🎉 🎉

The unending cycle is for real. Reached my LeanFIRE number 2 months ago, yet I don’t feel satisfied. Still reaching for the stars… when will this human desire end?
