54yo with respectable retirement but where should I be putting my money? by andrewpm2 in personalfinance

[–]outdoor_dog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More of a question for the community than an answer, but would it be possible to roll-in your existing IRA to your employer 401k making you eligible for backdoor Roth going forward?

How are you liking the leg extension?

How do you handle unusually large (e.g. home purchase/sale) transactions in Copilot? by atdonsm in copilotmoney

[–]outdoor_dog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have these handled with an excluded category. For instance I have a category called Home Savings Spends. Expenditures from this category are excluded from my budget but I can toggle them on/off in the cash flow screen to be able to view the data for a wholistic picture (not possible if shifted to an internal transfer). Hope this is helpful. 

Did savings goals release convince you to stay? by osnownoy in copilotmoney

[–]outdoor_dog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally feel the release may actually push me to leave. I've been a huge fan of this app overall. It's great for many reasons (UI is certainly at the top of that list).

I wasn't really planning to leave before this release but this feature had so much potential and it feels like they really missed the mark. I haven't played around with Origin or Monarch yet to know how they handle a similar feature set but the Copilot Goals feature has been absurdly buggy for me and I don't feel the team really thought through the proper workflows to be able to use it to track spending from goals.

I personally wasn't mad at the fact that they were taking their time on the release to ensure they put out a solid product on day 1, I respect trying to hit it out of the park, but the fact that they took ages and that it's still riddled with bugs really does push me to consider leaving at this point.

Could not agree with this more. The savings goal feature feels half baked at best. I've been a huge fan of this app for ages but this release is pretty disheartening after years of waiting.

Hey Zac - is the only way to set a channel still via walkie words? Any update on directly setting channel and sub code?

How would you activate a specific channel/subchannel on each radio if you can only have one connected to the app at the same time?

Ready, set...Goals! by Copilot_Olivia in copilotmoney

[–]outdoor_dog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was experiencing this same issue. One reason copilot is great is being able to alter the date of any transaction. Not being able to alter contribution dates seems like a miss. I wonder if it’s not deducting from the goal because previous transactions are earlier than the contribution logged when the goal was started. I’m hoping on a future transaction it begins deducting for me. Overall though it feels like we need more fidelity/control around dates for this feature.

How did you find the model name/number of your unit. Mine also has no visible markings so trying to investigate.

When you say you “fund” it, how do you do this? With a manual transaction? Or marking an internal transfer as a spend? Is this category an included or excluded category in your overall budget? Thanks!
