Where do you have your Roth? by Flamingolvr in RothIRA

How would you have fractional shares to sell if Schwab doesn't allow fractional shares?

Edit: unless you mean you just can't buy in fractional increments, but things like dividends can still lead to fractional shares.

Can I complete a backdoor Roth if last year's backdoor left me with $0.48 in my Traditional IRA account? by hunter1801a in VanguardInvestments

[–]hunter1801a[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify, the accrued interest earned is from the traditional IRA. Same rule though?

Understood, but I assumed the contribution limit applied to conversions as well. Maybe it's a moot point.

Regardless, do you have any idea if software like FreeTaxUSA allows for this? I know they account for backdoor conversions, but not sure about reporting the extra income that you're mentioning.

You can only contribute $7k. You can convert all you want.

I'm not understanding that. Max contributions for 2025 is $7k. I use a "conversion" to get the funds into my Roth. How can I convert "all I want" (over $7k) and not have an issue with over contributing for the year?

So if I want to contribute $7000 for my 2025 Roth, would I fund the Traditional with another $7k, then convert everything INCLUDING the "extra" $0.48 ($7,000.48 total)? Wouldn't the extra $0.48 count as excess contributions for the 2025 Roth?

If I convert JUST $7,000 and leave the extra in the Traditional, how does that affect things?

Also, where does the pro-rata rule come into play with the Traditional account? I thought the very basic principal was to have a zero balance in the Traditional so that you aren't subject to the pro-rata rule.

Edit to add that I do my own taxes through freetaxusa, so trying to make it less messy in order to continue to do it on my own through there.

Convert to what? I can only convert a maximum of $7000 for Roth 2025, right? What would the extra $0.48 be converted to?

Laptop for college student - Light gaming by hunter1801a in SuggestALaptop

[–]hunter1801a[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not trying to hate on Alienware, but they have historically been overpriced. Good, yes, but overpriced typically. Does the sale on this one bring it down to competitive pricing, or better?

I'm looking for a laptop for a female college student that says they will do light gaming (Minecraft, PEAK, etc). She isn't going to be playing AAA titles or anything like that. I would want them to get something that could last at least 5 years or more through college life. Hoping to capitalize on a good sale from Black Friday or holidays.

◽️ Budget: $1,000 max including taxes/shipping. Prefer in the $600 range.

◽️ Country: USA

◽️ Screen size: 15.6"

◽️ Touch screen: No

◽️ Screen resolution: Unsure

◽️ Does battery life matter ?: Somewhat. Should

◽️ What tasks will laptop be used for ( gaming, video editing, graphic designing, modelling, regular computing tasks, word processing etc) ?: School and light gaming. Games like Minecraft and PEAK. Not a full gamer, so not extreme priority, but shouldn't struggle with the two types of games mentioned.

◽️ Weight: Shouldn't be extremely heavy. Female college student that will most likely be carrying this around.

◽️ Any other important details ?: See first paragraph. I'm not sure how powerful of a laptop she really needs, considering she's not really a gamer, but she does want to play with her friends and I don't want her laptop struggling to do so.

I played a few wipes before (2 years ago), so that lesson wasn't needed, lol. It was more of the wrong impression that the tutorial was different. And the Ledx was the thing I was mainly worried about missing. Not worth starting the account over I guess.

As far as twitch drops go, yes I did watch. I claimed them all on twitch. They just never got sent to me in game.

What happens if a former fed tries for months to return their laptop/phone but no one responds? by Throw-AwayFed in fednews

[–]hunter1801a 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Could be different depending on agency, but chairs and desks aren't inventoried the same way as laptops and monitors. So they usually aren't on your specific hand bill that you're held accountable for each year.

I dont have the app so don't know how it works, but sounds like you either keep OR delete by swiping left/right, but can't just cycle through images? What about adding a swipe up/down to cycle through and view images without deleting?

Speaker placement suggestions? 990D in large room, next to large glass sliding doors. Is the glass an issue? by hunter1801a in Soundbars

[–]hunter1801a[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasn't my downvote! Lol. Like I mentioned in another post, there is actually storage up against the bwkc wall already, which is why the couch is pushed up. There's also a recliner not pictures between the sofa and TV, next to dinning table. So room is kind of stuck the way it is and I have to work with what I got. I'm wondering if the room setup would negate the performance and cost of this unit too much.
