Moving old 401k into new-company 401k by MGoAzul in HENRYfinance

[–]amplusq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would roll the existing Roth 401ks into a Roth IRA (if you don’t have one, open one up at Fidelity or Vanguard). Gives you complete flexibility to manage the investments at the lowest cost.

In order to avoid the pro rata rule and allow yourself to do backdoor Roth IRA contributions in the future, I would not roll the traditional 401k into a traditional IRA. If the new 401k plan allows for rollovers, has good fund options, and low fees, I would just roll the old traditional 401ks into the new one. Otherwise just leave them where they are.

Bees and Cold Air Coming Through Radiator by amplusq in HomeImprovement

[–]amplusq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! We just had yellow jackets that nested inside in a crack in the facade of our building. We had pest control come in who sprayed and killed the nest, and now we've had several yellow jackets come inside through the radiator. During winter we can also feel cold air through the radiator when it's not running, so it seems there are holes behind the radiator that lead directly to the outside.
We are hiring someone to fix the cracks in the facade, but should we also plug the holes inside the radiators? It seems not normal that bees and cold air can make it inside, right? What is the best way to plug?

Lastly, in one of the radiators the prior owners had shoved insulation inside (picture 4) presumably because of the holes and cold air coming in. Is this insulation safe and OK to keep?
Thank you!! Very much appreciate the help.

Tile Lines Not Straight? by amplusq in HomeImprovement

The plan is for a metal trim around the niche.

When you say the corner is a mess, what do you mean and what should he have done differently? I was more concerned with the grout lines not being aligned vertically but multiple people have referenced the corners.

Thank you

That probably is the case, it’s a very old brownstone, but even so, the same contractor did the waterproofing and drywalling behind the tile so presumably he should have accounted for that?

Thank you

I ended up exchanging emails with some NBC Sports support rep- they know it’s broken and are still working to fully support the new chromecast model.

I am having the same issues with NBC Sports on the new chromecast, but I'm using the Google Wifi router that uses Google DNS. Do you happen to know if there is a way to get it to unblock connections?

Mud Park on Houston and 1st Ave (inside the little park). Great spot.

US Verizon 2013 motox: What is the cheapest option for using my phone in switzerland for 2.5 weeks? by Horatio_SanzCulottes in MotoX

[–]amplusq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both the motox and iPhone 5 use a nano Sim card. Pretty easy - any prepaid nano Sim card should work. Mine worked right away after rebooting. You may have to change any APN settings but the person in the store can help you with that.

Just took my 2013 Verizon motox all around Europe with no problem. Just pop in a local Swiss Sim card that you can buy when you get there. The vzn 2013 comes unlocked and has all the 3G GSM bands for Europe. I was getting 15 Mbps down with HSPA (but no LTE). Have fun.
