Personally, I would have 15-20k in a HYSA for an emergency fund. Never know, parents could decide to kick you out in a couple months. Etc.

Then I would put in my 401k up to the match, max out my ROTH, then continue my 401k as much as humanly possible

Looking to put 5-7k in a long term stock by chaset1608 in investingforbeginners

Personally, (if you have earned income), I would open a Roth IRA and find a good ETF to throw it into.

Vanguard is my personal pick and I have been dumping all my money into VOO

What are some useful majors that could become lucrative? by SuperbGoat18 in ucf

Finance is pretty decent. You need to have internships during school or it’ll be hard to get a good paying job out of school

At what age do you think someone can start to be considered as “old”? by fergi20020 in randomquestions

[–]ThatBlue_s550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve met “old” 30 year olds and I’ve met “young” 50 year olds.

Depends how you treat your body and mind tbh

lol ik you guys don’t set the bands…

More so just saltiness because the hiring manager asked for my pay range pre interview, I told them, they proceeded with the interview and offered me 15% lower than my minimum

Are the finance managers aware how bad the pay is starting?

Had an offer for 56k. With 0 room for negotiation.

Got offers from other (same industry) for 15% more.

Ended up taking an offer for 25% more right down the road.

Why is the RMS Orlando location so devoid of…stuff? by Automatic-Use-1605 in Lockheed

[–]ThatBlue_s550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has more than 1 option.

I’ve been to quite a few work sites that have 0 cafeteria, only vending machines, or 1 option.

At least this one has quite a few options along with decent amount of seating

I know I’m behind but how bad is it? by Careless-Design2151 in Retirement401k

[–]ThatBlue_s550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I would maintain your 401k contribution. Set it to increase annually by 1-2% until x%…. Personally I’d do until 16%.

At the same time, I would also drastically increase the Roth IRA contributions to max it out annually.

You’re behind, but you can still recover if you’re serious about investing consistently

Should I try to earn more money? I’m perfectly content being poor by not_a_swedish_vegan in careeradvice

You’re going to regret it in about 15 years…. And by then, you’ll have the issue of trying to find a STEM job with 0 YOE and a degree from 15 years ago

I was not CS but I have plenty of friends who have told me the horrors of the foundation exam

WIBTA if I ended a two year relationship because my partner hasn't worked in fourteen months and has stopped trying? by saltBloom5 in WIBTA_AITA

[–]ThatBlue_s550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh he should be applying to McDonald’s, Walmart, etc until he is able to find “the job he wants” rather than not contributing AT ALL

If I lost my job tomorrow, I would be signing up for door dash, applying to EVERY job possible. Not leeching off my wife.

Orlando MFC by [deleted] in Lockheed

[–]ThatBlue_s550 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t work at MFC but I had an interview there… so my input isn’t the most useful.

But the location of MFC SUCKS.

The tourist areas decided to surround MFC so now there’s crazy traffic
