To buy or rent?

Can be really loud depending on what’s going on that weekend. Marta access IMO is pro. Lack of grocery accessibility (depending where you are but now WF exists from when I lived there last)

like

Pros - walkability for food/groceries/bars, proximity to Piedmont, relatively safe, easy access to Marta and the highway, some nice view from high rises

Cons - can be loud depending on your street and what floor you’re living on, parking for guests can be a pain

Relatively safe is kind of a toss-up these days.

My buddy had someone crawl into his apartment’s parking garage and die after being shot in a drive by. That APD officer was ambushed in the building adjacent to another buddy’s apartment. Last week, we had two interns see someone get fatally stabbed in front of our office (in an act of self-defense).

Crime in big cities is just something that you accept to some extent, but the past year has been kind of bananas.

California tax question. I moved overseas in November 2020 establishing a rental agreement in a different country. I sold my California registered car in May 2021 (my ONLY California asset).

I don't intend to return to California, as I want to buy a house in Texas. I have a potential $70,000 CA tax bill due to capital gains from a long-term investment.

I just started reading up on tbill ladder, and it seems like an interesting (and safe) way to lock in decent, tax advantaged, returns.

Thoughts?

529 NY question. I want to setup an account for my daughter. Planning to contribute $10K to maximize the tax deduction as a married couple.
(1) Should my wife and I setup two accounts for our daughter with $5K each? Or ok to setup a single account under one of our names?
(2) Understand $10K is below the annual gift tax but 529 is considered a gift. Is it good practise to document this in some shape/form? Like a one page doc that my wife and I sign stating we gifted to a 529 $10K in 2022.
Thanks
