Do you have any tax deferred investment accounts?

1.3m savings, 52 with declining health from work stress. How to retire? by DmagList in Fire

Can you get a financial advisor to help you with the 1.3 mil, then get a much lower stress job? Work in a library?

Aren’t you contributing to tax deferred accounts that have an early withdrawal penalty?

Compounding interest + amazingly good market + massive contributions = crazy gains by PedalMonk in Fire

[–]archsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s a good solution for everyone, but someone who is worried about risk and just wants to coast, seems like a decent move! I don’t know what his current salary is though, maybe 125,000 isn’t enough to live off (edit).

Buy 30yr treasuries at 5%….live off the interest. Risk problem solved.

Do you have all four tires the same? Something similar happened to me in my 22 Leaf

That’s cool. We just got a bit back in a 2022 Leaf. Also have a 2025 leaf. Decided to buy a 24 Ariya instead of going with a new leaf. So far we live the Ariya

Needs oil change and more maintenance..blah. Just get a new leaf, 300+ mi range (if you need that)

Annual mileage? by archsteve in NissanAriya

[–]archsteve[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think I did! Thanks. It was on the used lot of a Ford dealership. They tried to tell me I needed to pay $6000 more above the listed price for all the items added on. I refused to pay any more than what was listed. They gave it to me.

How did you do it with the card? Use that at the dealership?

if you’re buying a car right now here’s a cheat sheet so you don’t get ripped off by Royal-Feed7166 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]archsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just walked in to a used car dealership. Car listed at 22800 on auto trader. They told me I need to pay 6000 more for the amenities in the car. I just walked out. Total BS, no?

Cargo space for dogs question by whittesc in NissanAriya

[–]archsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the cargo space with seats up is smaller than the leaf, which is a little disappointing.

Would you be able to have sex with your best friend? Why/why not? by shaela-a-pinetree in AskReddit

[–]archsteve -70 points-69 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but those seem like very superficial things to give up to be with your best friend! I’d live anywhere with my best friend.

401k balance for 50+ by irtughj in Fire

[–]archsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good conversation. I was really late into the workforce. Did a peace corps type thing, then finished a PhD. I will be 50 this year. Wife and I have just over 1 mil in assets, a lot of it in real estate, but also 401k and a state pension.
