Presumably you’re referring to housing? In which case, we’re gonna need a lot more information about your situation to provide anything even remotely useful.

Rent unless you’re going to spend the rest of your days here.

for someone who is moving to NYC and plan to stay there for at least 5-10 years, would you recommend buying a studio or renting one? (open to any location in nyc/jersey city)

Bio: About to finish my first year (23y) in a few months and have 10k in a 401(k) plan and 28k in a checking account (I attribute living at home for most of my savings). I have 19k in private loans (5-6%) and 35k in federal loans (4-5%, 0% rn) from UG.

Question: Don’t know too much about investing outside of basics and unsure if nows a good time to invest based off my experience level but I want to maximize my savings. Also, my mom has a 8k loan at 7% as well as my own loans. Any advice?

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
