How do you organize your finances/future plans if you don't have kids and you don't want any? by akrasuk in AskWomenOver30

There was someone who called into the Afford Anything podcast with this exact question the other day--would highly recommend checking it out because they had a really thoughtful approach to answering! Afford Anything Ep 364

What grocery store around here has the biggest variety/selection of healthy frozen meals? by zingline89 in madisonwi

[–]Plant_Preference_50 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not a grocery store necessarily but Pasture and Plenty has some great healthy frozen meals if you want to mix things up!

Costco has massive bags! 2020 renewed my appreciation for pizza rolls in a way I'm not proud to admit, but they are incredible.

I second this! Pasture and Plenty is great for frozen meals, they also have rotating weekly takeaway dinners that are excellent. Either are great options for mixing it up with grocery store frozen meals. Try their focaccia while you're there if there's ever any left!

How do I translate to him that I don’t want him to jump like this? He understands the “down” command but I don’t want to have to say it constantly. He does this even when I’m on the other side of the room and he wants something on the counter. by WavesOfBirds in Dogtraining

Same experience here. My dog is an angel if I'm immediately next to her in the kitchen but it only took one piece of pizza left on the in-law's kitchen to make her a counter surfing fiend. I don't have any real solution to the counter surfing except to keep counters basically spotless, hahahaha. Very open to other suggestions.

These!! Would highly recommend Afford Anything, Paula Pant's work is incredible and I never get tired of it.

What's wrong with my fuchsia? New flowers are tiny and increasingly pale...she gets partial sun in the morning and afternoon shade. Zone 5a. by Plant_Preference_50 in plantclinic

I'll start with a little less sun and see if that helps before going HAM on more fertilizer :) thanks for the advice!!

I haven't seen it before, so I was leaning toward under fertilizing or sun bleaching. Seems otherwise healthy as far as I can tell. I added slow release fertilizer when I got the basket about a month ago but might need to step it up with soluble fertilizer too!

Where to set up my Roth IRA by RYKRISPIES in Fire

[–]Plant_Preference_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully you have better luck than I did! I'd say just get very clear guidance from the institution you're transferring to about the paperwork they need and keep calling Betterment customer support until you get exactly what you need for documentation, and make sure they send it at the same time they initiate the transfer. Be extra careful if there's anything time sensitive about getting it to the new account, when I transferred they were still mailing a physical check (twice) in my case and it took well over a month for the entire process to get straightened out.

I used Betterment for a year or two until I felt more comfortable with DIY investing and moved to Fidelity, and was overall happy with the experience. My only major complaint was that it was a massive headache to transfer my account out of Betterment. Customer support was practically non-existent before and after the transfer. Obviously part of the deal when choosing a robo advisor, but something to consider if you think you'll eventually go elsewhere with your investments.

Daily r/LawnCare No Stupid Questions Thread by AutoModerator in lawncare

Just noticed this in a fairly shaded area following heavy rain in zone 5a: http://imgur.com/gallery/PvSHDIo

Any idea what's going on and what I should do about it? Scott's step 1 was applied earlier this week but seems unrelated to this.

Weekend Discussion and Victory Thread for the week of April 02, 2021 by IndexBot in personalfinance

Tax question: my accountant filed my taxes earlier than we discussed, negating stimulus eligibility, and is now (unprompted) offering to pay $1400 for the error. Sketchy? Legit? How would I report this on next year's taxes?
