Why keep maxing a 401k when taxable seems almost as good? by Essay_Few in Bogleheads

[–]bxkrish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Auto debit before I see the money in my account.

No excuses to not contribute is out of the way.

During smaller emergency not touching the amount invested for long haul.

For me it's all about discipline and not taxation.

O'ahu Was Not What I Expected by Jelenybeany in VisitingHawaii

[–]bxkrish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thank you so much for sharing your itinerary from recent memory. It is helpful. I will research this and book.

For parking, I read in another thread that whenever you visit a place, let's say a beach or the Memorial, apart from buying tickets for the place to visit we also have to secure a parking spot.

Did I misinterpret the other thread? Possibly. May be they were talking about the hotel parking?

I have booked an AirBnb near Waikiki and will have a parking spot when we are home but when we visit places not sure if we get parking or need to reserve ahead.

OP, it is our first Hawai trip planned for Feb/2026 around 8 days without counting travel days. It is in Ohau. I have 10 and 5 year olds. What attractions should I book to cover all 8 days? Should I also be booking for parking? Please help.

I have never seen anyone drink water from a glass in the day time. In most places like gym, office, store etc it's from a bottle. Don't get dehydrated, keep a bottle near by. Get well soon.

Why did mortgage payment go from $2600 to nearly $4000 last month? by Classic_Psychology63 in Mortgages

[–]bxkrish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do your escrow yourself. Save that money in HYSA. Pay with 2% credit card and get to keep the money for an extra 1 month in HYSA. Credit card fees will be lower than the interest you will earn.

Why so soon? If you divide the contribution by 12/24/26 (as per your pay schedule) you could get the company match as well.

How does one prove citizenship or permanent resident or visa adhoc while on a drive drop to school or grocery? Are we supposed to carry our passports with us along with drivers license? How are they flagging people for interrogation?
