Is there any tax benefit if I am getting the same interest rate with a HYSA vs. Fidelity money market fund?

Depends. I believe that if the money market holds us treasuries, you may get some state tax exemptions

Depends on the state too. Some states allow proportional tax exemption others require that the fund holds over a certain portion of government securities to be tax free.

There's an ETF called BOXX whose intent is to use box spread options to offer the return profile of a money market or ultrashort bond fund but retain the earnings within the fund as capital gains and not distribute income, basically deferring tax and converting it to CG income.

Time will tell whether the IRS actually lets them do that.

While you discover where to put your short term cash, let me say to check out Vanguard Money Market instead of Fidelity. Less fee. More return. Instead of SPAXX they have a SPAXX equivalent.

Thank you

I am doing a back door Roth IRA through Vanguard and while everything makes sense to me, I am unsure if an additional $6000 be invested for a non working spouse. We satisfy the criteria but two questions - 1) Is this still valid I.e., $12k can be invested for 2021? And 2) Any insight into how this is done - Vanguard doesn’t let me add more than $6k as it’s above the individual limit. I tried searching the bowl for specific answers but wasn’t successful. Inputs appreciated.

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?
