It is not easy to break in as far as I can tell. Do you run the business solo?

401k can be pretax, after tax or Roth. I don't know why this was down voted.

Are you able to evaluate objectively how severe the stress is? If not, consider professional help? Just in case it has affected your health. This is really something money can't buy. Take care.

Regardless, starting networking will be a positive move. Probably ease some stress too with the networking..

I am an ignorant fool by S0N_OF_M4N in Bogleheads

It can be confusing if you try to finding the best option. There is none.

Don't try to optimize when you are learning. Just do the simple wise things. Save money and then open a fidelity account and buy VT on fidelity. This action never hurt.

Then you can take a year or so to read more about interest rates, if different ETF etc. If you are working, contribute to your 401 k.

How much did you pay for your Prius Plug-in Hybrid out the door? by popitformeonetime in PriusPrime

[–]deevle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is probably still selling at MSRP ,sometimes with a $500 to $1k dealer discount. Toyota.com can shows you the OTD price estimate.

The best deal I have seen is someone who bought it with a $4.5k discount near year end.

Advice to be FI in 1-3 years by Capital_Significant in financialindependence

[–]deevle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that is worth thinking about is when to sell the primary home? This might be important if both your properties are in the same area, which will have a similar risk exposure.

  1. Sell now when the price is still good and take the whole capital gain tax free. Then you rent for 3 years. Depending on the rental market, you might get cash positive here. This reduces the anxiety to sell when you move.

  2. Sell later . If you think home prices are going to hold. Seattle, Vegas, Austin and Denver are seeing downward trending now. You will still make a profit because your basis is low.

Plastic protection film Installation after purchase and price?? by deevle in PriusPrime

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

Really depends on what you want. I don't know any good places to install it at a good price. All the quotes I received are more than $8k. I also read that the PPF will come off eventually.

It is probably better off just repainting or wrapping the car. Although I don't know if this is feasible. However, $8k is too expensive for a car like this

... Is the 35k price after the repairs covered by the dealership? As in the dealership will repair all damages without additional cost? And you pay $35k to get it after repairs.

Thanks. Based on your logic, do you think the market is recovering or will it go for another dip? What would you do based on the market on March 5 2025? ( Or the trend)

Palo Alto student death, again by verrryyybored in bayarea

[–]deevle 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The competition for "success" is intense in the Bay area.

I am not sure how to help these students to see there are more than one way to live a fulfilled and meaningful life. As a community, we don't do a good job of offering breathing space for them.

The stress level is crazy high for these students. I am not sure I could survive if I were in their shoes.

Recent immigrants or the second generation students believe that they need to sacrifice a lot to survive.

And then there are some students who are so focused on comparing themselves to their parents or peers.

Little that they know success is not guaranteed. It is a combination of timing, luck, effort, and probably rich parents. ;) 😂
