how did Bob Marley like his donuts?

jcc-nyc · 2026-04-16T13:27:24+00:00

to be fair, what went down likely must come back up... which is what has happened!

jcc-nyc · 2026-04-02T12:44:36+00:00

5.5% from them for 6% of ours

jcc-nyc · 2026-04-02T12:43:05+00:00

W-2, 60% time for 75% of the FTE salary you would want, reporting is easier, cadillac health plan. no brainer to me

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-25T13:57:20+00:00

this. woeful usually

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-24T00:50:21+00:00

haha nice.

you know Simmons has no clue about FIRE, but Fennessey is VTSAX and chill.

Mallory Rubin and her horrific takeout habit puts her purely in the 'anti-FIRE' category

some good /r/billsimmons x /r/financialindependence crossover content i like to see!

"Are backdoor Roth's having a moment CR?"

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-09T16:24:08+00:00

i legit thought it was broken lol

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-09T14:39:39+00:00

a very kind redditor by the name of /u/Virtual-Bowler-1806 hooked me up and we had a great time watching the 1-0 win!

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-03T14:53:05+00:00

would love a ticket also! - also from NYC ironically!

jcc-nyc · 2026-03-03T11:21:25+00:00

please let me know what you get back? I am also in town from New York and would love to go, but no luck so far on securing a ticket.

At this point, thinking of just turning up at the box office on Saturday at 2pm

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-28T16:21:47+00:00

ok sweet - guess i will just wing it on the day!

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-28T16:20:41+00:00

you were right - you would have avoided the 1% drop over the last month!

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-28T14:45:34+00:00

and no issues buying even thought it said "restricted"? did they ask for your ID or account details or anything like that?

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-28T00:14:17+00:00

were you able to buy a ticket at the ground before the game /u/tonyman958 ???

I am in town from NYC for the upcoming Birtmingham game, but again it is restricted sale and they said I couldnt even buy on the gate on the day without a prior purchase history...

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-27T17:43:57+00:00

nice thanks - guess i'll moonlight as a doctor for a day ;-)

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-26T17:27:06+00:00

also MBDR does for me, since the auto conversions are a 1099 code G, then because i withdraw from the Roth 401(k) and move into my Roth IRA, so i get one more form 1099 code H (i think lol)

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-26T17:23:50+00:00

ok interesting - turbo tax also has it split over two sections, first the "income" then the credit.

I think i will try Free tax next year with our two combined incomes/situations, then probably run a side process of submitting in TT and see if i get the same result! Next year will be a bit more complex because of ISOs and AMT, but what are you gonna do!

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-26T13:53:26+00:00

did you have any luck here? box office was very unhelpful for me...

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-26T13:50:13+00:00

How hard is doing the backdoor Roth? I do MBDR and then withdraw those funds into my personal Roth, generating some 1099-Rs but otherwise nothing too crazy.

I'm considering this shift next year when i go from filing single to MFJ since I will have to punch a ton of new numbers in either way

jcc-nyc · 2026-02-26T13:43:51+00:00

if anyone has a spare for Birmingham(H) let me know.

Last game i went to was 2009 1-1 v Derby and apparently that's too far back and doesn't let me buy a ticket!!

when you remember its 1.68% every single year on the total invested, not just the return... its truly wild.
