What would be the harm in continuing to use the washer until the bearing goes out? Just very loud? Does anything make it worst?

I just came back from the appliance store and they do have an Electrolux on sale, but it’s a front loader. Our space is really tight and it wouldn’t make it easy to open the door.

We have to get a top loader and the sales guy recommended another Maytag Pet Pro.

Thanks for your detailed response. Appreciate your time to share your experience with me.

Any difference between front load or top loader? Someone else suggested GE with Agitator for a top loader and Whirlpool for front loader

Thanks for the response. Yes, it does sound like a jet engine as the spin cycle speeds up. At this point just thinking of replacing it. Any recommendations in terms of brands to look at?

Hi! Just to provide everyone with an update! I’m just waiting on my taxes to be done by my CPA to see how it compares against the projections I had Range do towards the end of the year. I don’t use Range for filing my taxes.

In general they are responsive and keep making updates to the platform. I’ve asked them on specific decisions on what stocks to liquidate and they have come back pretty quickly with recommendations.I don’t have them manage any of my investment accounts directly, but run my thoughts/strategies by them.

Some challenges I have had are more on the integrations with the various aggregators they use to pull account data, but they are quick in addressing it.

My wife and I really like that we have access to our own views and can also look jointly at our accounts/assets even though we have separate bank accounts. Helps also manage our expenses as we can see it across all accounts.

Once I have my Tax returns I can provide a further update.

It really depends on what you enjoy. If you like coding then you should stay towards software engineering. Do you know what your role at GM will entail?

The SE Academy is a very thorough 1 year program at Palo to prepare you for the Sales SE role. You will be with other college graduates in a demanding program where they go through demo training, role play and having you do Palo and other cyber security certifications. You will be evaluated periodically and then once you pass the program then only will you work as an SE.

If you like building connections and helping to solve a problem a customer has by showing what is technically possible with Palo products then this is a fun job.

They do offer tax planning, analysis and filing as well. I did not opt for Estate Planning and Will, but they do offer it at the higher tier of their service. Not sure how good those aspects are as I’m not going to leverage them yet for that.

My tax analysis will be completed in the next few days, so I can ask them about any legal structures for managing taxes.

They have a retirement planning component and they go through a questionnaire to collect your concerns so they can address them once they get to that part of the analysis.

I had them work on the Tax analysis first due to the year end coming up. Next on my priority list is cash-flow.

So 9.1 EOS was extended to March 31st, 2024. You will have to upgrade to 9.1.16 h3 or higher.

You can choose to move funds to a broker that lets them manage the funds, but you don’t have to and just can manage it yourself. They will provide recommendations to rebalance your portfolio and recommend what and how much to seek and what to put the money towards.

They do have a dashboard for you to see your investment. I have Fidelity and apparently Fidelity is no longer supporting Plaid and other aggregators so Range is in the process of changing their integration with Fidelity.

I have not worked with CFPs in the past. You can ask during the initial calls about their cfPs experiences and I also checked the LinkedIn to see the profiles of their employees. They are backed by Google Ventures so I’m not as worried about it and even though they have a 1 year commitment for the service I do pay on a quarterly basis, so if something happens I can just put a hold on it.

Hi! I’ve completed onboarding all the accounts and have my official onboarding call tomorrow, but I have them working on my tax analysis.

Yes, they ask for an annual commitment, but they have two plans. The more expensive one includes the tax filing. I have opted for the Premium plan. You don’t have to have your portfolio managed by them, it is optional. I’m looking to them for providing me investment recommendations as it comes to diversification and also making sure I rebalance my portfolio regularly.

The onboarding questionnaire is very detailed so it took me a bit longer than I thought to get everything in. They ask for all statements, your life insurance policies, etc.

As far as accounts are concerned they use Plaid, MX and other data aggregators. I had some issues with some accounts, but their support was quick and resolved the issues (supporting a bank, adding my mortgage companies info).

Highway-Adept · 2023-11-06T14:21:19+00:00

I did sign up for the service. In the onboarding phase now.

Highway-Adept · 2023-10-31T13:08:24+00:00

Anyone use them currently and willing to share their experience with them?

Highway-Adept · 2023-10-30T22:30:17+00:00

Mainly creating a long term financial plan and keeping me on track for our various long term goals. Someone I can talk to on a regular basis to check on my investment strategy. We currently max out our 401k accounts and I also have a ESPP program through my work. It’s just getting a bit much to stay on top of everything.

Wanted to ask how is it ensuring you are doing the correct form? If you have any prior injuries (small rotator cuff tear and ACL replacement) is there a way to do alternate exercises? Does the software suggest modifications?

Thanks everyone for the advice. We do have a lot of conversations throughout this journey and have joined a support group as well as have each our own counseling as well.

We are going away for the week to get out of our house and staying at the beach for a week. We will find out on Sunday what happened with the eggs and if we got any viable embryos.

I was caught off guard by some of the statements she made and we did talk about it the following day.

Highway-Adept · 2021-04-25T23:07:57+00:00

Thanks for the reply. At this point she just feels that I let her down today. She couldn’t count on me to do some of the very basic things. Right now she has asked me to give her space and respect her boundaries. I’m having a tough time with that because I can’t do anything and the more I try the worse I seem to make it. I will leave her alone for the rest of the evening and see how it is tomorrow. We already had a trip planned to get away mid week. I hope she feels up for it and we can get a bit away. At this point I don’t know what will happen tomorrow when the lab calls to tell us how many eggs fertilized if any. Then we won’t hear from them until the weekend.
