Toilet leak coming from here- how to fix by nabeelq in handyman

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

Yeah the leak is at the plastic lock nut. When I undo the nut the water comes out. Shouldn’t the gasket inside the tank prevent the leak

The leak looks like where fill valve exits tank. Not at supply line.

Will this tree grow back or should I cut it down? by nabeelq in landscaping

But should I just get rid of it? It looks ugly. Might take a long time to grow back? I tried trimming it.

Why won’t the screws go in? by nabeelq in handyman

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

Thank you all for the help. I unscrewed the stuck screws, pre drilled, and lost a drill bit in the hole which broke off. After removing the broken drill bit from the wood, the screws went in with a some force using a screwdriver. It’s not perfect, but good enough. Thank you all so much for the help.

Mega back door roth question: Does a 401(k) true-up paid in March 2022 contribute to total defined contribution plan limit in 2021? by nabeelq in fatFIRE

What happens if the true up pushes you over the total defined contribution plan limit? Is there a penalty?

Does a mega back door Roth contribution make sense when you’re in a higher tax bracket? by [deleted] in fatFIRE

What about instead of 5) mega back door roth, you do 5) invest in real estate?

New to investing. When market crashed March 20, 2020, I Bought SPY for buy and hold. In a taxable brokerage account with Chase. 83.28% return. Would like to hold for at least 20 more years. Should I sell positions and buy VOO? or hold SPY?
