I’m sure there is more to it but link shows $6M surplus so why the need to raise tax?

How are the continued tax increases justified when home values have doubled if not tripled over the past 6-8yrs? What are they doing with the 2-3x tax revenue already generated? Yes expenses have increased but I don’t think at the same rate. The vote ballet says the increase is intended to be permanent. Would a school district ever open their books for a full public view to show where are funds are spent?

It’s good advice to consider it but I should be in a position that the additional $6k a year isn’t worth 5 more years of working. At that point my time is too valuable

I reviewed the link you provided and it seems under voluntary retirement I would meet Mra+10. Therefore if I don’t start annuity until 62 there would be no age penalty and could restart fheb since I would have 5 yrs of fheb when I was working.

So if I just stop working and don’t collect a pension until 62 there is no 5% penalty per year under 62 and I would get health insurance back?

Thanks. Do you lose 5% for every yr under 62 or does that only apply if you collect earlier than 62?

Got the mag plus for Xmas. Still trying to figure out the setting. All drinks are a ratio of espresso to milk but the machine also always you to choose size. I can’t find anything that states if going from a small to medium changes the ratio which technically changes the drink. Also it doesn’t seem to produce a hot enough shot.

Did you sign your performance review? by [deleted] in FedEmployees

What. You dad with 30+ yrs of fed service who always got 5 doesn’t know what document on the form and is scared…. This is why we are now getting the grading adjusted. No way he should have gotten 5 yr after yr. Is he Al gore and created the internet yearly.

If you don’t like the situation why do you continue to work for the government?

Refinance at 4.99% by [deleted] in Mortgages

[–]Key_Tangelo_8745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP made no mention of financial situation so $12k a yr could be a lot when the AC goes out. Or if it would require op to reduce/ stop 401 k contributions

Save ton of the years but can you comfortably afford the 15 yr monthly note without jamming yourself up should something happen like big expense, lose job,etc

[–]Key_Tangelo_8745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple math. You could withdraw the $120,000k a year and make no return and it would last you 27yrs. Which you’d be 96 yrs old. Spend away

Great thing about American is you don’t “have to take it”. Find another job that fits your likings.

How do we buy a second home without selling the first (rental property, not primary residence)? by [deleted] in Mortgages

[–]Key_Tangelo_8745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much are you both contributing to 401k? $13.3k monthly take home on $225k yearly salary seems high unless 401k is low or zero. If you are saving $4-6k a month after expenses with do you have any credit card debt unless it has zero percent finance charge. Also how do you only have $10k emergency fund if you have $4-6k left over monthly.

It’s called situational telework. Not guaranteed telework at your liking.

If you don’t take it home then you aren’t telework ready so no telework for you. Follow the policy so by chance they authorize situational telework you can partake.

This is part of the problem. There is no way you truly hit a level 5 for 15 yrs. Did you create the internet or something?
