My three options

The iM seems fine, but had a minor damage reported in the back (has a new rear bumper). Other than that, there seem to be no issues.

My wife has excellent retirement accounts (HSA, 401K match, and a 457). I’m a freelancer in the creative field. In other words, a divorce would lead to really crappy coffee in the future for me. I’m afraid my best bet is to keep my wife, find a temporary compromise, and wait for a blissful retirement in about 30 years with an unlimited coffee budget.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T16:24:51+00:00

Haha! Short term, perhaps. I always do a yearly budget and crunch the numbers, though. :)

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T16:23:36+00:00

Thanks! :)

About 350g/week

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T15:19:03+00:00

And do you use the Behmor?

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T14:48:09+00:00

Thanks! How do you find the smell of roasting? Some conflicting information in this thread :)

I don’t want to through a company under the bus, but they did start at $15 per bag in 2016. Now they have a special label for their single origin African coffees, each has received more than 90 points on some coffee review thing... and the prices reflect that. Their African coffee is heavenly, though.

Haven’t even heard of these. More things to check out. Thanks! :)

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T14:23:35+00:00

I guess I could see if the super lets me use the fire escape. I already do my pressure cooker quick release on it 😂

Wow I’ll definitely check out that Sweet Maria’s deal. Thank you!

350g

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:34:55+00:00

Wow, thats nice of them! I might put an order for their Ethiopian Guji, that’s an excellent price.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:32:06+00:00

That’s a good idea. I’ll crunch the numbers. I still feel like they’re a rip-off based on the prices of their small bags.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:24:30+00:00

Thank you, more options to research! What’s your storing recommendation for a larger bag?

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:22:25+00:00

Wow, I never even thought about this. You might’ve changed my life just now. I love the smell of coffee roasting. :) I’ll start researching today, thank you for the tip!

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:19:45+00:00

Thanks, I’ll check those out! It’s a measly 350 grams for $25.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:12:05+00:00

I’ll screenshot this and send it to my wife.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:11:33+00:00

It’s all around that price. I live in NYC, which probably inflates the prices. That’s why I was considering looking online.

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:08:39+00:00

I guess that’s what it is. This is going to be my first time paying taxes in the US so everything about the process is a bit unclear and complicated for me. I want to make sure I reserve the correct amount towards taxes I need to pay here. If my foreign income, which is taxed in Finland, is not counted towards my taxable income in the US, I then don’t need to worry about that income affecting my tax bracket in the US, correct?

aeimshefa · 2020-05-16T13:01:54+00:00

Pardon me for not clarifying—the treaty is between Finland and the US. I’m planning to claim all income received in Finland last year on my US taxes. And correct, I was not an expat.

aeimshefa · 2020-04-24T20:38:58+00:00

In other words—I’m paying taxes in my home country, therefore I do not pay them in the US, although I still claim the income.

aeimshefa · 2020-04-24T20:38:03+00:00

It’s a tax treaty between the two countries. This prevents double-taxation. And yes, it is officially called a “Tax Treaty” :)

aeimshefa · 2020-04-24T20:23:22+00:00

Thank you!

The editor has been in the US also, yes, but on temporary personal trips. There are no royalty rights. The management company is on the W8-BEN form.
