What are some of the things to keep in mind when leasing a new car? What are some add-on that can be negotiated on?

What are some good modern/post-pandemic personal finance books you can recommend?

My play for next week:
Sell the SPY 200 puts since the market would plummet. Look for opportunities to buy back, probably when the stim bill passes. Would love to hear your thoughts on it

Plan is to purchase some time after 2 years or so. Primarily to save up for a larger down payment.

Here’s my plan of attack:
- $30K saved right now ($20K in IBonds and $10K cash)
- $90K saved by July 2023
-$130K saved by 2023 and target a $800K home

Location: Suburbs of Boston, MA

I don’t play with options much, but I happened to buy VERU calls for 2/19 a little while ago and now it’s skyrocketing, it’s up over $1k for me- will it keep going up? Should I just take the profits now and be happy?

How do you invest and save for your children? I’m thinking about setting them up with custodial brokerage accounts but don’t want them to have a heyday at 18. Did you create irrevocable trusts or?? They are too young for earned income and I don’t own a business so no IRA investing opportunities here.

What all methods to save tax on a 22 LPA salary (fixed including PF both employer and employee) apart from standard 80C, NPS, insurance and home loan, etc

Incoming MBA, I have my tuition paid for and rent covered (I will be an RA). So the only thing I need to pay for is food and entertainment. Do you think 20k is enough to last me through the 2 years? I will make a little money interning in the summer, so that would be a safety valve if I blow through the 20k.

Or… should I take a small loan?

Best long term investment strategy against inflation to get to a large nest in for retirement?

For the partners/mds/directors etc how are you protecting your money with the new administration? I’m assuming Biden’s plan will help the lower class but for the upper class I’m sure there have been strategies your advisors have been telling you. I currently have 20k in savings and feel like it’s just getting inflated away.

Alright this bowl has convinced me I need to buy a Rolex. Where do I begin? I know my brother got a Batman GMT after about a year at a jeweler he never purchased from a few years ago, but was he just lucky? Do I need a relationship with an AD in today’s market for a Sub or GMT? Based in Seattle but would prefer to buy in Oregon to avoid taxes

📊 Poll: Is Snapchat worth it's 3 billion 💵💵 IPO valuation?

Anyone who sends some money monthly to their parents in India? If so, how much $/month. I send $2.5K each month but trying to figure out if there are better way to invest that sum here in the US than just to put that money in a Fixed Deposit in India.

Great question! And without getting too much into monetary policy.... Fed rates are set by the Federal Reserve which banks use to charge each other to borrow money. A lot of times these rates move together, however, a Fed rate increase does not instantaneously change the rates the bank offers.

Other types of savings account have seen an increase this year such as online savings accounts and fixed annuities.

For those with corporate banking expertise, how do you typically go about calculating debt capacity for a company?

I have an old 2006 Camry that I am eventually looking to replace (it is currently worth 2k). Have always wanted to learn about cars and how to do stuff with it and would like to use this car as an opportunity to pick up a hobby. What resources can anyone suggest (books / videos etc) where I can do car-related stuff, from the simple to hopefully more complicated as I get better. Thanks

'22 Lexus GX460 or '22 GMC Yukon SLT?
Both cost around the same - Lexus is more reliable and likely holds its value better but the Yukon is bigger and likely even safer.
