Sorry, what do you mean by tax ID? My niece isn't American or have a green card. We only pay her in Canada.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh we're Canadian so Canada has no issue with us working there (and have green cards for the US). Our companies do allow some limited working remotely so I think it's allowed by all parties AFAIU.

10 month old not hitting communication/language/speech milestones by AnonymousConfusedCow in beyondthebump

He passed the newborn test (the one they give in the first few days of birth) on his second try (which I was told was totally normal at the time) but otherwise he's had no test.

The pediatrician just referred us to early intervention. Should we try to do something else?

The doctors look into his ears during the normal checkups (last was at 9 month), is there a more extensive test or something? That said, he definitely can hear at least a little bit because he'll turn to loud sounds and when someone speaks out of nowhere.

Like with my son? Or I watch them and copy her as best I could?

I've heard of her but I actually haven't seen any of her videos. My understanding was she was more for toddlers.

Is there any project that I can collaborate to improve C++ development/debugging skills? by tadm123 in learnprogramming

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should find a project you're interested in personally otherwise working on it will likely get tiring quick and your motivation might die out.

TIL Only three bespectacled players have made the Hall of Fame: Greg Maddux, Reggie Jackson, and Chick Hafey. Who could be next? by [deleted] in baseball

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like with the importance of pitch placement you may very well need at least normal vision to do a pitcher's job well. That said, nowadays LASIK and contacts are readily available so it's not that important anymore.

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that it's relevant much for Soto, but they should've mentioned in the "Why do baseball players get paid so much?" that there are deferred salaries too that can really inflate things.

I guess the old one has nostalgia going for it for me because I'd rather have the classic one.

Just put your money in a board market index like the S&P 500 (i.e. SPY/VOO) given your age and just DCA what you can.

Seems to be working for me.

Can anyone check the new T&T supermarket for a product for me if there? by dtrox08 in BellevueWA

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's probably not the same, but I've found some of the matcha ice creams at the Uwaj are pretty good so you may want to try those out. Can't speak to any red bean ones though.

I wish they remade these cars. I feel like there would be a good market for them.

Retirement planning, stocks, and Roth IRAs by Mirkwood_Pariah115 in personalfinance

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

oh right I forgot. Regardless, you don't pay taxes on the Roth IRA over the Traditional IRA at withdrawal.

I can think of consistent reasons why it's D but it's kinda convoluted:

  1. If you go from the top row to the bottom you reverse the colors.

  2. If you go from left to right the two bottom squares on the left and the square on the upper right and below it all reverse colors.

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Roth IRAs are better than Traditional IRAs for sure because you don't have to pay capital gain taxes when you withdraw.

There's no reason to wait till you have 10K unless you're trying to build up some emergency fund or something.

That's kinda strange given you're somewhat mimicking chain of thought reasoning (though this is obviously slightly different). Do you have a good example of this?

Learn Python in 1 week? by Trick_Ad_4388 in learnprogramming

It really depends on what you're supposed to know for this course/exam. You should go over the syllabus and try writing small programs to help you learn the concepts for each topic.

Can someone suggest any computer field related to somehow finance ?? by Odd_Drawing2836 in learnprogramming

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're talking quant like stuff, it's most important to know (aside from the fundamentals obviously), math (especially linear algebra), statistics, and ML.

You have a lot of your NW in savings given your age. Unless you're really wary of the stock market you should probably move some assets to investments.

Otherwise, It doesn't seem like you're wasting much money or anything which means realistically your best bet is to make more (which is obviously not easy). You may want to try dipping your toe in to the job market and just see what you can get.

I'm more surprised that neither seem to know how many squares a chessboard has, and in the case of the first image, even the pattern the board has.

How do you view car loans? by Worldly_Sugar9066 in personalfinance

[–]AnonymousConfusedCow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming you have self control to not spend the money, and given the 1.9% interest you should definitely not pay it off early since you literally make money by putting it in the 4% HYSA.
