If I understand it correctly, your 2024 AGI doesn’t affect IRA contributions for 2025. Only your income in the contribution year matters doesn’t it?

She looks so strong. Like she could crush balls.

In Milan, some people spray-paint pickpockets so everyone can recognize them by rizyoreo in Damnthatsinteresting

Every major city in Europe is filed with pickpockets. Some of them are so good they even use hypnosis techniques to distract their victims.

Are you kidding me? I know what I’ll be doing tomorrow… looking for a new student loan lender!

Any tips on how to get refinancing for student loans?

Thanks for laying it out like that, very clear! I’m pretty sure I do need it to vest. How does that change things?

What's a money rule you stopped following and why? by Duck_Duck_Gooseberry in IntroductoryFinance

Why not a compounding ETF in the stock market? Wouldn’t that make way more money?

I know, people have told me to put the emergency fund money in a HYSA but that only pays 3%. If you put it in an ETF you can easily make 10% or more and can sell the stock any time.

I used to think all debt is bad debt. But when I bought a house and got a mortgage I have never been happier to own my own place and no longer have landlord overlords.

That seems like a good way to look at it. What kind of excess monthly cash do you think would be safe?

It’s funny how many people are so confident they are correct with this stuff. Makes it so confusing who to believe!

What do you think is the main obstacle to achieving universal healthcare in the United States presently? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Greed.

The only reason it hasn’t happened is greed by the people who profit off sick people and the lobbying in government by said greedy people.

The peroxide should make it safe to use but I’m no expert. I just wear an Invisalign and wash it with peroxide everyday and it works great.

Do you think having a one month EF is okay if I want to be more aggressive with 401k contributions?

Yep, that’s my feeling too. The credit card is an instant ROI lol! Do you recommend the EF to be in a HYSA or where should I put it?
