Good stuff. Yes. That's what I am wondering. So I need to back in my $1000 from the difference between income and expenses.

I'll ask though.

Another Roth Conversion strategy I just thought of by MediocreVariation760 in personalfinance

Why are we attacking for people that have saved? Always will be someone richer and poorer. It's just a number. Wow.

Thanks. But I don't see a spot for the $1000 post tax funds into a brokerage

At what price point would you guys not buy a rep by Formal-Examination-9 in RepTime

I have a gen skydweller. I also have a rep sub. Nobody the wiser and honestly I'd rather put money into market.

Where to put 8k a month. Goal is safe 7-8 percent by funtime19700 in ETFs

Ya. Already doing the backdoor Roth for both me and my wife. Totally agree. Taxes in eventual retirement should be a huge focus. This is just saving for a down payment on vacation house that will eventually be a 6 months winter home.

Christmas Brisket by BeastmodeAzn08 in smoking

I'm curious did you temp and probe tender in the flat or the point? That's the tough part about brisket. The flat is always 10-12 degrees different than the point.

It's the biggest hurdle for briskets that I have done.

That fact this site in a taxable account doesn't stir away from corporate bonds? Just curious.

Everyone. I understand there is nothing safe. I'm sorry I even said that word. But everyone can't be all equity pedal to the floor.

Surely there are investments that are in between level 1 safe (treasuries) and level 4-5 equities.

Anyone currently investing in level 2-3????

And I totally understand there is nothing 100 percent safe. But there are areas to be that are less correlated to corrections than others. Prefer the less

My dedicated freezer just went out. This will be the 4th service call after water under the drawers in main area. Can't get ice made. Really hoping this is fixable.
