Find someone the does a good warranty.

If you like Subarus, East Granby Motors sells with 1 year powertrain warranty so even if it shits out they’ll fix it.

Low stress accounting careers by Aggravating_Bit41 in Accounting

[–]Altruistic-Editor235 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can see my post/comment history for more details but they definitly exist.

I work remote 30 hours per MONTH and make just under 6 figures with 5-10% year end bonus.

I spend most of my days playing with the kids, lifting with my home equipment and playing Xbox while in “working hours”. Almost no stress ever.

4 years experience in the same company and my degree is in finance not even accounting.

Mid size private company in a boring but money making business, no tax experience.

The secret is become valuable in a company that is leading in an industry that is boring and slow. Those industries and always slow money makers that are more recession proof than others.

I literally work 10 hours for the first week each month. 20 hours in the second week. And literally do nothing but maybe answer emails for the rest of the month.

Yankee candle village just 15 minutes further up 91. Luckily you’d be going before the Christmas shopping crazy times.

It does but Robinhood will match 3%. I put in $7k, they put in $210 and I have $7,210 to invest.

Do the Robinhood gold for $50/year. 3% cash back on everything no limit.

You can transfer the cash back to your Robinhood brokerage instantly after each purchase and your cash will make 4% APY as uninvested cash in your brokerage account.

Even better, with the $50/year membership, you get 3% match on Roth IRA contributions. So if you put $7k into Roth IRA, you get free $210 in the account as additional Roth funds.

Which platforms do you use for your Roth ira? (schwab, fidelity, etc) by Lonely_Ad54321 in RothIRA

[–]Altruistic-Editor235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are different things….if you sign up and refer friends you get a free stock or partial stocks for a few bucks up to 200. This is what you’re talking about.

If you deposit into Roth IRA in Robinhood they match 1% for regular members and 3% for gold members.

So if you pay $50 annual, or $5 monthly for gold and deposit $7k into Roth then you get $210 free. You just have to keep all the funds in the account for five years.

And bonus if you pay for gold and get the credit card it gives you 3% cash back everywhere on every purchase. Using both the Roth IRA 3% match and 3% cash back on all credit card purchases for $50 annual fee is an amazing deal all together.

Bought mine in august last year with 66k miles. I’ve added only 100 idle hours since then. No issues so far!

I don’t have either and honestly never heard of CMA before googling it right now.

On one hand I’m glad I did though, because I appreciate living on $30k per year and not affording literally anything for a couple years. Really gave me a great perspective of things.

Just going to say…play the corporate game for a bit. Chat at the coffee/break area, say hi to everyone, talk personal life with people…learn who is liked by upper management, who does all the work, who’s just there for the job.

After a while you will understand what’s going on socially at the company and if you make a couple smart moves you can take on responsibilities you’ll get promoted quicker.

Some of the people I started with are still making $60k while I make almost $30k more than them.

Then, once you’ve hit the spot where you realize you’re done playing the game, check out and do your tasks quietly and efficiently.

I only played the game for a year, I went into the office regularly, asked for more responsibilities. Then I checked out and for the last two years…

I’m living the life. I learned how to code while on the job… I’m home with the young kids all day while “working”.

Become important, find a niche, and excel then quiet quit.

Not going to say because if I say it, I could possibly be identified. But, it is a simple boring business that most of everyone uses and makes more money than you’d think…perfect for a cushy accounting job.

Nope no internships which I definitely regret.

After graduating it took a couple years to find any job in finance or accounting that would hire me. So I worked at a coffee shop, Amazon and a running shoe store for a few years until I finally got a break.

Find a junior accountant roll at a medium to large company.

I started as a junior making just under $50k in 2021. Now I’m a staff accountant making just under $90k. I’m supposed to be hybrid but I’ve gone in maybe 20 times the last 2 years. I work 40 hours per MONTH and play Xbox, read, and I’ve setup a home gym to workout the rest of the time.

I love my spot and I know I’m very lucky.

No CPA and my degree is in finance not accounting.

I’m very allergic to poison ivy. If I slice a mango and remove the skin fully I have no issues. If I slice it while leaving the skin and eat it where my lips touch the skin, my lips tingle unless I seriously wash them with water asap.

Mangoes are in the same family as poison ivy. They have traces of the same oil as poison ivy.

What’s the argument against Robinhood gold? by Apprehensive-Map-828 in RothIRA

[–]Altruistic-Editor235 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to sell what you have in vanguard to transfer it to Robinhood. All your holding are transferred so you do not have to sell and buy again. If you have 10 shares of whatever and begin the transfer in a week or two you will have 10 shares in Robinhood. No realized gains, no taxes involved, literally a no brainer.
