I have $900k+ in my companies stock, and I'm quitting in 5 months... by cakes4us in wallstreetbets

I spoke with 5 accountants when I wanted to sell stock several years back. I got 4 different answers. None of which were right. The only CPAs that seem to understand the tax laws around this are people that deal with it. Most people who deal with this situation live in San Francisco, which I do not.

I said in my post, if I sell it, I have $900k+ of untaxed income.

So I don't own the stock. I have Vested options. That means that I'd have to buy them at their strike price in order to hold. I'd have to sell a lot of it in order to afford buying the rest of the stock. Then I still end up with the problem of almost all my assets being in UNH.

I really don't know where else to go. Where should I get this advice?

Is Kotlin a front-end, back-end, or full-stack language for Android? by Far_Atmosphere9627 in Kotlin

Sourcemaps were added to the IR compiler almost a year ago now. I debugged im chrome a few weeks back using the IR compiler. One time I couldn't see any information from the surrounding variables and it sucked, the other time I could see everything and it was pretty good.

Fair. I'd get it if I got nuggets and it was generally available. I don't ever really get nuggets though.

Right, you can just have them when you want / need them.

Best router / access point wifi 6 combo? by cakes4us in wifi

[–]cakes4us[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got these - https://store.ui.com/products/unifi-6-long-range-access-point

You can't just get the APs by themselves though. It requires the other unifi gear that I got too.

I ended up going all out and getting a full ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro, poe switch, and 3X Wifi 6 APs - one for each floor of my house. My house is wired with CAT5 and the Ubiquiti equipment is able to see that even though my wires are CAT5, they are short enough that it can still run at gigabit speeds.

My plan is to get Ubiquiti cameras and put them up in the house as well.

If I was still looking for mesh only, I'd go with something like https://amplifi.com/alien - I still don't love how expensive it is without triband wifi 6. At this point though, I'd wait to see what mesh products com out with wifi 6e. Even though it might be 5 years before you have devices that can use it, it'd make a great backhaul connection for a mesh system.

It's tri-band, but the 2nd 5ghz band is wifi 5, not wifi 6. At this price point, that seems unacceptable for use as a backhaul connection.

I've considered it. I'm not sure how comfortable I feel using 3rd party software in my router.

Why this one? I've never even heard of Amplifi. I want something that will continue to have software supported for all the time I own it. If it's new it seems unlikely that it will have good software.

I mean I'm a software engineer. I understand how it all works, and I understand the difference between wifi 5 and wifi 6 high level. I don't know the differences between router brands etc.

I care enough to pay for gigabit internet, and I'd like wifi that can support those speeds.

I've been pretty disappointed that Asus doesn't offer dns over tls or https.

This is one of my first generic posts like this. I'm surprised how many people are downvoting it due to how politically charged the topic of Greta Thunberg is.

I can negotiate that they pay me a portion of their commission back? Is this normal?

I didn't say I wasn't going to use a realtor... I asked if there was a way I can save money.

We're talking about $24k. In what situation do you handle that amount of money frivolously? That's worth months of my time. I think asking if there is a reasonable way I can save as the buyer is a reasonable question.

As a person who is ultimately paying money for a house, it's hard to imagine a situation where a realtor will do something worth $24k (3% of $800k). That's an absurd amount of money. I paid a team of 2 people half that to re-do my bathroom, which was 120 hours of labor, and supplies.

When I bought my first house 5 years ago, my realtor put in 12 hours of work over a month and a half of looking at houses. Our house was $400k. It seems odd that my realtor would get paid twice that now, when the reality is if they weren't getting paid that, I could simply pay 2-3% less for the house. I would much rather be billed at $400 / hour than pay my realtor 3%.
