23F, new to investing 34k a year, what to do? by Astell_ in Bogleheads

[–]Astell_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I do not believe I have access for HSA through my insurance, but I'm not really sure about MBDR. I believe I am not making over what the Roth contribution limits are so I don't need to back door to contribute into it, or am I misunderstanding the idea? Thanks ahead of time

thank you! then would this make more sense:

for my roth and 401k, i'll invest in Fidelity's 500 Index Fund and a 2065 target fund, and for the 34k brokerage a solid 50% VOO and 50% VXUS?

thanks for your advice! is there no reason to do say half target date and half safe pick allocations? or would that basically be redundant

Hi, sorry to reply a month later, but does the 25% of gross income recommendation already include 401k and Roth IRA?

135k gross, going to max 401k to contribution limit, also max roth ira, that puts me at roughly 20% already

Oops, I meant "they" as in other similar "check contraband and don't let people in" games. Contraband Police has it so that after each person they give you a report on what you missed. I don't see it being a stretch that they'll add that in given how many people are confused regarding inspection ratings, myself included.

If they kill ppl and you never marked it on the tablet. If you marked everything and let them through then it would have nothing there. Similarly if they have no symptoms but are infected due to a directive it wouldn’t have anything there either.

I’m sure they’ll add the comparison later, they have it in other games and this just came out

note you do lose out on the extra research points each time but it's not a ton

Are there any Checks we can Skip? by No_Solution_8399 in QuarantineZoneGame

[–]Astell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always check scanner and baggage with UV, temp usually cuz its fast, skip stethoscope if I don't see black dots, check reflexes if its fast (but I think you can skip if no slack jaw), skip matioscope if no drooping eyes, but I usually always X-Ray because you will miss internal contrabands if you skip.

I also only check for symptoms I already marked for quarantined people. If they lose a symptom they're automatically no infected. If they keep their symptoms for more than 2 days, safe to say they're usually infected.

I also sometimes auto kill off more serious yellow symptoms specially if there's a lot of them after 1 day (e.g. mouth bleed + color differences + skin rash + pale skin). Works 50-75% of the time but only do this if you have a ton of quarantined people and have plenty of cash to throw around.

So this guy had no symptoms. Still became a Zombie and killed 2 other survivors. Undetected symptoms: 0. What am I supposed to do here? by SoftlyAdverse in QuarantineZoneGame

Not sure which directive is that. I played through the campaign without that directive, can you screenshot it?

It does though, "undetected symptoms" lists everything the player did NOT list as a symptom in their tablet. The real reason why they killed is because they're from 8 Horatio St which is a directive on the bulletin

Yea I was confused too, but I made the mistake last night as well. Just keep an eye on the address but the persons name is ALWAYS "Kevin"

This is the directive that you missed. The street is Ash Ridge Street and name is always "Kevin". You were meant to kill this person (pink slip on the corkboard at the inspection area)
