I inherited around 70k in a TD AmericanExpress IRA account. Just turned 30...I MIGHT use the $$ as a house down payment down the road, but would actually prefer to invest it longterm for retirement. Already maxing out 401k and Roth. What would be the best investment options?

I just hit my lean fire number but am hesitating to pull the trigger, so was hoping to run it by people smarter than me:

- I have a few rentals that bring in ~$1800/mo cash flow, taxes are negligible, Capex incl.
- My paper assets will bring in ~$1200/mo at 3% draw
- I get free Healthcare at the VA
- No plans on kids
- My expenses haven't topped $30k/yr ever
- I could always reenter the workforce if needed (albeit probably not in consulting)

Please point out the flaws here, what am I missing?

My SO and I are touring a home tomorrow that we’re considering purchasing. With COVID restrictions + high interest in the home, we only have a 15 minute time slot to tour it. Suggestions on what things we must check out given the time constraint? We’re first time home buyers, so want to make sure we don’t miss anything critical during our tour

Does anyone have leads for a recent MPH Epidemiology grad with 0-2 YOE to get into consultant roles in Healthcare/life sciences?

Second question: what sort of work experiences are companies like flatiron and komodo health looking for to work in RWE/heor? I'm not sure how to leverage Epidemiology to get into that space :(

Look for opportunities in other consulting firms currently hiring. Anyone hiring for someone with 3.5 YOE of which 1 year is of consulting for a big healthcare organization!

Got an offer, made a counter, they came back and said they’re keeping their offer where it is.

Jobs ok. Could use the benefits. Offer was below market.

Thoughts?

I work at a small, 3 lawyer firm. One of the lawyers is not barred in the state we practice. Because of this, the managing attorney has been having him draft motions and other legal documents and use my name and bar number and having me file them because I will have to appear in court for the matter. Is this normal? I am not provided time to review the materials before I file them so I end up working longer days because I am nervous to file something using my name and bar number.

I’ve accepted an offer from a firm. Had to revise my joining date and the HR sent an email confirmation for the revised doj. I received an onboarding portal link from another HR, on their portal it’s mentioned my joining is in January which is even earlier than the joining date I received before on my OL which I got revised later on. The HR isn’t even reachable, they don’t reply to mails or pick calls. Don’t know what to do.

Can I share my performance rating screenshot to the HR??

SCARED MONEY DONT MAKE MONEY. BUY NOK 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

My partner and I are in the process of buying a PHEV that qualifies for the full non-refundable federal tax credit. We will both owe taxes in excess of the current $7,500 cap (will see if that increases with the new budget bill). If we both own the car (i.e. both names on the title), how do we manage filing for the tax credit when filing separately? Do we just pick one of us to file? Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?

My investing strategy is just to DCA into an S&P 500 index fund and keep buying and holding. If I understand correctly, the sole disadvantage this has compared to a tax sheltered retirement account is that the quarterly dividends will be taxed? But even so, they’ll be taxed at a lower qualified dividend rate since I’m automatically reinvesting those dividends.

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

Hello folks, so I’ve been trying to DCA twice a month. Every time I do we seem to hit a large drop right after. Does anyone have a strategy to mitigate this or do you just set a day per month to do it and not look back?
