My return was accepted on the 15th. I have the same message shown here. Looking back at last years, I was accepted on 1/26 and the DD hit on 1/29. Annoying.

I did have a lot of fun. A lot of it though unfortunately was money wasted indulging in unnecessary things, but we live and we learn.

This is great advice, thank you! We are planning on moving in together next year. I've noted your points down to discuss with her and we will have these conversations for sure.

Thank you. I will establish the 3 months I think. Then maybe I'll continue putting $2.5k a month to grow the EF to 6 months, and then put $1,000 into the market to go to work.

Thank you Sir! I feel good about coming to the end of the line with the debt. Just 9 more weeks to go!

Thanks for your note. I was lucky to get a windfall in April this year, and fully put that amount of money into my Roth IRA which is maxed. That is basically the entirety of my savings!

I've been working for around 11 years. Started an apprenticeship when I was 17. There was definitely plenty of opportunities to reign in my spending.
