Hsa carries over year to year and can be invested. Great financial tool. FSA is use it or lose it every year.

Hi, I know this isn't the place to seek tax advice. I haven't sold a car so this doesn't apply to me just yet, but was curious on the overall topic and people's experiences if they've dealt with this.
If I bought a car and sold it for less than the initial purchase price, would I pay taxes on the difference between the sale price and cost basis? If so how would I determine my basis in such a rapidly depreciating asset? Trying to decide if selling is worth the potential hassle. TIA

With this much in stocks already, shall I still invest in stocks on my own in NSE based Indian companies if I’m investing over 5 lakh yearly in PF+PPF+NPS too ?

Hi Anyone from Deloitte. I have job ID can someone refer me.

If you are juggling multiple interviews at the same time and have ranked which employer you prefer the most to the least (but ultimately would be happy with any on the list) what would you do if the one you prefer the least is moving along faster than the one you prefer most? Ideally I would like things to work out and have all the cards on the table to choose from at the same time.
