I like to go through the Meetup app. I find groups that I can see myself in and get together with the people at whatever event is going on. I have made a lot of meaningful connections this way. I also use the Nextdoor app to find local volunteering events and help at those as well.

Find out which groups have influence in you city. Might be Rotary or Junior League for example. Important connections made there. Social opportunities too but people may be older.

Volunteering and playing in a sports league.

Politics. Even though my party is usually on the losing side of things where I live, fundraisers are great for meeting people.

Over the years- adult sports leagues (primarily soccer), Toastmasters, volunteering with nonprofits, participating in events with college alumni.

Volunteering as a mentor for various national organizations

Brigadeiro are scrumptious dulce de leche caramel bonbons, a beloved confection of Brazil. Brigadeiro is made from sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder which is heated in a saucepan until it thickens and becomes a sticky caramel. Once it cools, it is rolled into a ball and dipped in multicolored sprinkles.

The iconic bonbon was named after Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes, a 1946 presidential candidate. It was created to win voter support. (He lost).

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)

Can someone help me understand how backdoor Roth works in my situation?

I contribute the $19.5K max to a 401K each year. Would backdoor Roth be (A) the ability to roll $6K of that $19.5K into a Roth? or (B) an incremental $6K that I could contribute to a separate IRA then backdoor into a Roth?

Asked another way, does backdoor Roth allow me to actually contribute $25.5K each year, or does it just allow $6K of my $19.5K contribution to build in a Roth?

Thanks!

I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
