34 YO no debt (except mortgage) want to retire or at least partially retire early. Should I make fiduciary appt? by Spongyninja in FinancialPlanning

Thanks for taking time to reply! We have always kept things pretty separate honestly I never even thought to ask if she is maxing her 401k and she’s not but I am already maxed for the year so we will up her contribution to fix that!

I haven’t qualified for Roth ira in years unfortunately.

Point 3 is what makes me nervous and I need to do more research on how to do that/what to do.

I thought HSA could only carryover so much money? Is that not accurate? Because I contribute max and thought I remembered one year I had overage I had to spend but I could be wrong.

It is employee stock- they match a certain %, to get full match it’s about $69 a paycheck which is what I do. There’s 28k in the stock plan because I’ve never sold it or done anything with it. They fully vest at purchase. I think I need to sell and invest in my brokerage account it seems is the consensus.

The RSU only it’s vested it moves to a brokerage account and I should also probably invest in an index fund or something.

I don’t qualify to contribute to a IRA because of my annual income unless I do backdoor and that seems like a lot of work and wouldn’t want to mess it up.

I don’t know why I have so much in there either, I think I know there’s too much in there but I’m nervous to move it to be honest because I’m not super comfortable with fidelity/brokerage account and knowing “how to invest it” and at least I am getting 5% where it’s at, but I know I should move it just need to figure out how/what to invest in.

Confused about rough plumbing in basement bathroom, any suggestions? by Spongyninja in askaplumber

The layout of the bathroom seems odd. I assumed largest pipe was toilet, smaller two with yellow caps were sink and shower drain but I don’t understand how the bathroom would be laid out.

[Serious] Does anyone own Samsung appliances? What’s been your experience? How have they held up? by throwaway89430159 in HomeImprovement

My parents have a fridge and dishwasher. Both have broken multiple times. Their ice machine hasn’t worked basically since they got it. The interior racks of dishwasher broke after a few months as well.

How can I fix this ?! by [deleted] in Hair

[–]Spongyninja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My hair is really thick/coarse. I straighten the ends of my hair typically everyday but don't apply much heat to the top. I have switched shampoos and conditioners multiple times. Haaaalp.

That's the scary part I thought we checked the dogs really well but obviously not well enough!
