What do you plan to get when the bonus hits your account? 😉

Hi everyone, any tips for resignation letters, who to meet/tell first, what to do before your last day (i.e. anything adulty like 401K or healthcare)? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

When do you predict the dip? I've been waiting for so long, but don't want to buy now. VTI seems inflated.

I’m maxing out my 401K, traditional IRA and HSA this year and paying for some house improvements. I have about $750K total investments and very close to $2M net worth, but realize that I am behind on investments if I want to do FIRE. I was focused on paying off huge chunks of my mortgage and managed to whittle it down to $75K left. Would you suggest I go ahead and pay that off this year? Or pause and do a mega back door roth instead? I’m mid 40s. Thanks!

Debating between a few travel cards and need some opinions. Debating between Capital One Venture, Venture X and Amex Green card.

Live in a non major city with an international airport, but need to be flexible to different airlines. Which of those cards, or other cards out there, would be best

This is gonna sound stupid, but I’m honest - I can’t do math. Calculating a tip is as advanced as I get. Thank god for excel formulas and a math savvy husband. At the end of the day, I pay all the bills (I know- but I’m more organized) and make double his salary, what low stress effort (on my limited math capacity brain) can I do to increase wealth?

I feel like I should be doing more with extra money to help us financially, but I’m scared of having to study stocks and understand the numbers. 😖

Bitcoin - should I buy? 💸💸💸

What platforms do you use for your investments?

I use Zerodha for brokerage and Kuvera/Coin for MF investments.

Thoughts on buying xem?

Do you charge a flat fee for representing a buyer in a straightforward purchase and sale of one property? What’s ballpark legal fee — from LOI to PSA to diligence to closing? Assume pretty clean title, maybe one CC&R.

Do I have to stay in big law if I want to support my parents in their retirement? They basically have little to nothing saved and are 10 yrs from retirement age. I guess part of my question is how much does it cost to support low-spending folks while they’re in retirement (maybe at least by providing modest housing and paying for a couple trips for them to visit family every year)? Anyone have any experience with this?

At what monthly take away you guys took a home loan? Also, does the home loan includes cost of the plot?

If you contribute 6% traditional 401k, and 6% Roth as well, which gets matched?! Guessing it doesn't matter in the end...

First instinct this morning... put more money on coinbase. Hope by the time it clears I still catch the bottom.

I want to catch up on my contribution to HSA for 2019. If I do this before April but I already filed my 2019 taxes, do I need to amend/fix my 2019 tax return?

Company offers 200% match on the first 3% of 401k contributions, vested immediately. How is that relative to other firms?

Guys ..
When will final settlement take place? What will be the components of it?

Newly minted consultant here looking for financial advice.

So I just moved to consulting after B school, and It's more money than I've made my entire life. After paying for rent and living expenses, I have 6000$ left over every month. My student loan payments are about 1200/month at 7% interest. I still owe another 95K on my loan. I have the option to pay more every month and reduce my overall interest paid.
Currently I put about 3000 towards my loan and 3000 towards my savings. Cont'd...

26 YO, make make roughly 130k TC and really wanting to get the new 2022 Accord Hybrid Touring trim. Great MPG and reliability. MSRP is just under 40k for the top trim. Good financial move or should I go with a lower trim such as the EXL or Sport which come in around the mid 20k-low 30k area.

Any other loan officers in here? I'm trying to decide if I should dig in with the current market or look to pivot. I've only been a loan officer since 10/2020. So this is my first rough patch. The style of leads my company provided was different than what they have me doing now. It went from hot inquiries to cold call center calls. My wife makes good money, but I don't want her to carry our finances for long as we are a team. What jobs could I look to pivot to if I pivot? Thanks fishes!

Do you all see a compelling future in your tax career? I’ll go first, I don’t see a compelling future working for a large PA firm in the long run because you have to work more as you move up. However, I do see a compelling future by using my knowledge and skills to open my own firm/business and work less hours as long as I make enough money which is $75k, or if I do work long hours, it’s because I want to.

Is fashionphile a legitimate place to buy a Chanel bag if it comes with an authenticity card? I know that there is at least some risk, but I’m trying to gauge if this a reputable enough place to spend so much money. Thanks!

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

Any recommendations on designer card wallet other than Gucci? Looking to buy one for my sister. I already have the Gucci leather card wallet and my sis is not a fan of Gucci. TIA!
