Best way to pay a security deposit / first month without seeing the place and being remote. Found a sublease with a master tenant who seems cool and reasonable but won't be able to move until mid July. However would have to pay the sec deposit and first month by July 1st and have been seeing everything via facetime. What's the best way to protect myself with payment?

Chicago attorneys: know anyone who does financial planning for those in big law? 1st gen attorney and I admit I know damn near nothing about my finances beyond what my mom taught me which is keep a $20 in my wallet.

TL;DR: Social Security matters.

My wife & I are 35. If we quit working today, at 70 we are entitled to a combined $50k in annual SS in today’s dollars. (Source: SSA.tools)

$50k real is significant. Let’s be conservative and say that a 70 year old couple spends $100k per year. That’s SS meeting half of your required expenses.

Current law with current demographics shows that SS can fulfill 79% of benefits into perpetuity.

Assuming SS will disappear means working decades longer than needed

Newbie here. If BTC goes below $10k, planning to buy first $1k worth. Stupid or smart?

Any good realtors in Seattle?

New Jersey partnership question.

Partnerships need to use market sourcing for purposes of calculating NR withholding tax (though NJ doesn't even call this withholding anymore).

However, for purposes of calculating the NJ distributive share of income, you apply Gross Income Tax (personal income tax) rules, which is 3 factor and includes COP.

If I end up with 0% apportionment under GIT and 10% apportionment under CBT (withholding tax), the partnership pays tax upfront but NRs get 100% refund?

Considering the 5yr horizon. Need your help to decide on the options.

New to crypto investing here. Looking to buy 3-5 coins to DCA and hold long term. Curious to get thoughts from those that aren’t trying to get rich quick but more so using crypto as a way to hedge, diversify, and potentially grow wealth.

Looking at: BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA.

1. What else should I add? Any to remove?
2. I’m looking to put no more than 5k into crypto. Thoughts on Lump Sum vs DCA given current market conditions?
3. What % breakdown is ideal for long term investing for coins above?

Are BTC and ETH the only coins that have crashed, recovered, and gone on to set new baselines above their old highs? I’ve been trying to see if any others for this criteria but it doesn’t look like it…trying to figure out the best picks for the next bull run.

I hope you are well.
I currently live in London, United Kingdom, but I’m thinking of moving to the US in January.

Buying puts on GME? Am I too stupid to join the hedge fund losers that are potentially looking for idiots like me to take over their positions? But logically all short squeeze ends at some point. On Thursday when price dropped to $100 then rose back to $300, that’s the shorts covering their position so guessing squeeze is already coming to an end?

PSA: Invest in as many meme stocks as you want, but dont invest what you cant afford to lose.

With that said, I invested in gamestop buy sold at $35 and $60. Just a few thousand of gains (which is good enough) but better than losing all my gains and original investments. Good luck!
