No, there were no changes to any tax policy with the exceptions of credits for seniors, tip earnings and overtime…

What does that have to do with OP’s question?

I saw this video which said it is being eliminated, but he's a magician and not a financial advisor so take it with a grain of salt

huh...why?

As much as youtube influencers will have you believe, Mega back door (not sure who came up with this name) is not some secretive... hush...hush scheme that a handful of people discovered and use it to save for retirement...

It is a perfectly acceptable retirement investment maneuver that congress intended for everyone to use ...that is why there is an upper limit of max $76,500 (believe for 2024) on it.

If your employer plan allows after tax contributions and in plan conversion to Roth...and if you believe that you will pay more taxes in retirement and need options..by all means you should use it.

So need to worry or be squeamish about it

Does anyone use a brokerage account instead of a checking account? Mine offers a fee free debit/atm card and free checks which I'd rarely use but starting to question whether it is worth maintaining my "big bank" checking account that requires a $1500 minimum balance.

I also have a local credit union checking/savings that I'd use if I need any services or to deposit cash and a HYSA that gets my paycheck, is used for mortgage and credit card payments, and to transfer to checking or investments.

First time investor in the US. Any suggestions on books / blogs to read to get smart. Where do people typically invest given all the client related policies in place for consulting firms?

I was once at a dinner with a second year analyst, consultant, and partner, and the analyst said he planned on retiring by 30 and the partner and consultant laughed. Little did they know, the analyst owned his own home and rented all the rooms out so he payed no rent, never ate out, only grocery shopped, and very very rarely bought anything new. He saved most of his income, and was perfectly content with just his video games. That man was serious about not being stuck working forever.
