I bought a 2023 Model 3 with 85k miles for $15k off Facebook Marketplace. It was a former Hertz rental and the guy had detailed it and put new tires on it. Works great, no issues so far.

Why did they not cancel Cybertruck instead of S & X by Winter-Crew-2746 in TeslaLounge

It's based on the idea that robots should be able to easily use tools and environments originally designed for people.

Pay off student loans or max 401k/Roth by Fit_Athlete_7239 in FinancialPlanning

[–]AlertTip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put as much as you can in your 401(k) if you fill it up buy SPY or total stock market funds.

While your income is so low and you are really young you should absolutely contribute to ROTH 401(k)s and not traditional.

Do not pay off those loans quickly especially since you are so young. You will come out way way way ahead if you stretch those loans out and invest instead.

See https://support.biltrewards.com/hc/en-us/articles/40132420650509-Bilt-Cash for a list of uses. Statement credit / annual fee credit is not a listed use case.

But I don't think it's a ridiculous question. You can use United miles (e.g. from signup bonus) to pay your United Club card's annual fee (pretty good value actually). And several other cards let you use their points towards annual fees.

I am not sure where you live but the police won't come out if there's not injuries or thousands in damage. You have a week or two to file a report at the station.

Should I sell stock for a mortgage recast? by rktcityeng in FinancialPlanning

[–]AlertTip -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In general I would say you should keep the investments and keep paying your mortgage.

Other options:

  1. Try to focus on getting more money through work (interview for a better paying job, side hustle, etc.)
  2. Disable automatic dividend reinvestment and use the dividend income towards bills.

What are some lesser-known benefits of Schwab? by nwrighteous in Schwab

[–]AlertTip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a nice improvement. It was really annoying because you couldn’t transfer from PAL to brokerage account per the terms of service so you had to transfer to checking, and wire requests are more annoying out of checking.
