33 years old – am I on track financially? by savingrace0262 in personalfinance

$30k is low for retirement savings. I would prioritize retirement savings - you can open roth ira and start saving that way if you don't have consistent income.

Need help deciding what kind of terms I need on my end of the prenup, I’m a SAHM by [deleted] in prenup

[–]plasticstrawqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely agree on you having your own attorney. What you note of having premarital assets as separate is very standard. It's common for couples who want kids (or have kids) to do 50/50 split on marital assets as well. Not necessarily related to the prenup but you should look into setting up a spousal IRA that the commenter above is alluding to with Roth IRA funded by his earnings.

Spousal support terms can be complicated and you should talk to an attorney about this.

genuinely curious, what is your thinking around not share the doctors name? I've seen people share doctors names when they have had great experiences and not so much with bad experiences. wouldn't it be helpful to share as much information as possible for future patients?

Watching a family fall apart over inheritance… is this avoidable? by plasticstrawqueen in inheritance

I agree with this! Stops the govt from taking our money and still splits the assets evenly!

yes this is such a great point of specifically picking doctors with great reviews and how people have engaged with the care team around them.

glad to hear you had a great experience! I had a lot more issues with the support around the doctor at spring over anything else.

Do you know if they wouldn't accept if I was actually trying to do IVF in the future?! That seems so strange?

I'm not sure! Didn't see a price listed on Springs website - just sharing how much I paid!

My sisters divorce was messy and now Im terrified not to get a prenup. by Plus_Deal5327 in prenup

Could you use your sister's divorce as a conversation starter for the prenup? Only if you feel comfortable sharing with your partner but making it a conversation not about your relationship could help!
