Investing is not for me. I like to wear my vest outside.

It's a farce. A government-run front for gutting the American public via imbalanced consumerism channels and fee-ridden market-based vehicles. If your money isn't stuffed in your mattress, you're a big big dummy.

I finally broke down and went back on HRT last week. I have been taking gabapentin for a nerve injury which I’ve learned helps hot flashes. I can’t tell a significant difference yet aside from maybe getting a little better sleep. I saw a new doctor (male) to get my prescription refilled and he seems to have a different philosophy than my last doctor (female). He wants me to be on HRT until 51, but after that he doesn’t recommend it. I hope by that age I’ll be off the gabapentin…

I have a lot of student debt from law school. I’ve refinanced a couple of times and received the best fixed rate available, but I’ve seen others refinance with a variable rate which of course is lower. I’ve read some other comments of people refinancing at a super low variable rate....isn’t this risky? Of course I am afraid of going variable and then the interest rates going up a lot. Am I missing something?

It’s not much compared to most of the posts I’ve seen in this bowl, but I finally hit $10k NW after I started working FT in August.
Everyone in this bowl has been a tremendous help in this process. I’ve never been good at saving, so this is a big milestone for me. Thank you again to everyone who gives out advice in the bowl, it is truly invaluable. Happy NYE! ❤️

Moving to Dallas soon. Does it make sense to buy a condo or house even if I dont think I'll stay there for more than 3 years?

Also want to take advantage of low interest rates.

I’ve seen a couple posts lately with comments saying that people should not use a Roth 401k. Does the logic below capture the spirit of that concept?
1. Use trad. 401k to reduce taxable income now. Convert to trad. IRA once retired, then convert gradually to Roth IRA (ladder, SEPP, etc.) at lowest marginal tax rate
2. Use Roth IRA (and/or backdoor Roth) to take advantage of tax free growth and ability to withdraw principal early without penalty
