What's the farthest upstate I could live and realistically commit to the city three days a week? I was thinking Woodstock or Saugerties, but according to Google maps that's a two-hour drive each way or three hours by public transit each way. Was hoping for one hour by train from Grand Central or Penn. Looking to be in nature, near a cool town upstate, but not so far that commuting to work would be too hard. I do have a car but prefer not to drive into the city all three days.

Hi fishes,
I had interviewed for Cognizant and I was asked to submit my documents for offer letter release. This happened on the same day as my interview(Friday 6th May). I submitted my documents and I am trying to contact the HR who scheduled my interview, but she is not picking up my call. My question is how soon can I expect the offer letter to be released? And is there a possibility that they can reject my profile at this stage?

What’s the general guidance on the order to maximize retirement contributions for tax benefits for an normal individual and for a self employed/small business owner before moving to taxable accounts or alternate vehicles like cash value life policies?
I’ve seen for individual: match trad 401k->match roth 401k->max roth IRA->max trad IRA->max trad 401k->max roth 401k->max HSA
For self employed: max SEP IRA/solo 401k->max roth IRA->max trad IRA->max HSA

Of course situations differ but in general?
