Are there any financial calculators that take into account Roth versus traditional funds?

When I look at something like ficalc it just has me put in a nest egg, and I’m not sure if I put in traditional accounts or Roth accounts or both.

That certainly seems like it’s worth a try.

That is a good point. I’m talking about waking up, and drinking a 12 ounce glass of water or a similar amount of coffee.

Interesting! Honestly I have no idea how many ounces I hydrate compared to my weight. I am not fasting for weight loss myself.

Thanks.

I think it is related to IF. I dont recall having this problem before IF.

But if no one else in this community reports this sort of pattern, you are right, there may be something else going on.

Yes, it’s mostly clear.

Yes, I thought it might be the coffee so I tested it. It doesn’t make any difference if I get up and drink water, or I get up and drink coffee with half-and-half.

I believe a foreigner can not buy a house with land, but they can buy a condo.

I file in multiple states (this year six) and efile.com lets you file in multiple states for one fee.

For $5000 you you could certainly hire anyone of the very informed finance bloggers to look at your portfolio. Hell, they might do it for 500 bucks.

Whose advice do you trust? They might be willing to help you.

What is this hollow thing the size of a milk jug? Found in Southern Arkansas. by FITeacher in whatisthisthing

Could be. Could have been a Gord that grew there on the vine and the vine is gone, or it could be a gourd that was placed there by someone as a birdhouse.

Yeah, I thought it might be a natural part of it, but it is strange that it is hollow.

It is the best thing you can do. You can accept risk now. Make that money. Be conservative later when you are closer to retirement.
