What do y’all do about underestimated RSU withholdings? First time vesting and have a $20k tax bill despite a very reasonable estimation for withholdings. Was shocked. 😶

If the company stock is doing well, I recommend supplemental withholding from your paycheck if you can. (Instead of taking the additional amounts from RSUs)

Thanks so much!

You have to pay 20k on top of what they withheld?

Yeah

You’ll have to talk in percentages here rather than $ if any of us can help.

Loan payment question. I have two federal loans. One has no accumulated interest and is ~$110k.

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.
