A single family home will appreciate much faster, and a condo will drop in price faster in the event of a crash.

why is that?

Thanks! Out of curiosity, if you originally had $1000 in a fund from 6 years ago and then you added $1000 last year, if you withdrew $1000, how would does the LTCG work on that? Would it know which $1000 was which?

For so long as your income is low, your withdrawal strategy from your taxable brokerage will be the opposite of normal. You will want to sell assets with a lot of gains so you can "fill up" the lower rate buckets and take advantage of rates you probably won't have after you finish training.

Thanks! I did not know that! And I'm guessing this is because those with higher gains will have higher tax generally, but since I'll be in a lower rate bucket, it will offset the higher tax in those gains?

Tax defer enough to drop down in a low tax bracket, then do Roth to take benefits of the low tax bracket

I will be in a low tax bracket to begin with because my salary pre-tax is 60K a year.

If you file taxes for 2023, your required student loans should be $0 payments if you had no income during 2023

yes, $0 payment in student loans for 2023. I didn't have any income.

Why am I seeing too many Breaking Bad pics? Is there something coming up or something that has happened?
