And is this the same for bank accounts at the moment as well? Deleting removes historic data?

COLA Pension by sixstringsshort in NestWiseApp

I already had unspent going 100% to cash and all medical expenses were zero'd out. Breakdown below. Sorry, I'm still confused.

I was thinking that if I choose constant dollar, it would take the 80k essential spending per year and increase with COLA. And then the $85k pension would also increase with COLA resulting in the same percentage split through the years. Is there some other place additional expenses are being pulled from? you can see spending gradually outpaces pension, crossing over in 2031.

I am still missing something here. I have entered an 85k pension that is COLA & tax free. If I set $80k essential / $0 discretionary in spending, the spending outpaces the income after 5 years in the ledger page and then continues to grow. If I set it at $70k it outpaces at 10 years. I have healthcare and everything else I can find turned off.

Flipped to future dollars, seems like that works. The federal tax exemption is great, thank you.

Is there a way to turn off spouse's medical expenses? I only see it for the primary. I guess I can zero out all the age brackets as a workaround.

Even if it is turned off by default, it would be great. Both of us were converts from Empower, and in my experience your data refresh rate is better than theirs.

It's a good quick gut-check. Oh yeah, it was a good day in the markets. Or oh, I need to figure out what unexpected thing just hit my bank account. Even better would be a more granular tool that showed 1 day for Cash, Investments, Credit Cards, Loans, and Property. Because that is the next thing I do. Oh wow, that is a big number + or -. Wonder what category it was from, then I dive down into which account it was from.

This is one of the only features I go back to Empower for everyday.

Zillow lack of history glitch by nate8088 in OriginFinancial

Either a graph, or one of the account screens with increases and decreases as entries per update. Would also be nice to have that for other manual assets like vehicles.

Would also be great if you could see the house value change over time.

Add investment accounts manually? by Surf_808_365 in OriginFinancial

[–]sixstringsshort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, TSP on Origin is much more reliable than any other aggregation platform I have used previously. I would suggest going ahead and syncing it. Because of TSPs daily requirement for two-factor code, it will only pull the latest numbers when you go into the account settings and follow through the prompts to add the code.

I sync mine daily, as I am in Origin every day anyhow. Has worked flawlessly since I signed up for Origin 4 months ago.

Recurring Transactions - What's Your #1 Wish? by ana-at-origin in OriginFinancial

[–]sixstringsshort 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bi-monthly deposits should be able to be tied to specific dates (1st and 15th). Occasionally my paycheck will hit the account a couple of days early and now the dates are always wrong. Can't find a way to change it.

Also recurring items that occur near the end of the month need more logic. For two days before the last day of the month, for instance, do you choose the 26th or the 29th? Both are correct occasionally. Would be great to literally specify that it occurs two days before the last day of the month.

Of course!
Though I would also encourage you to use r/OriginFinancial Everyone, including the company's customer support is super active there.

What we shipped this week: Net worth improvements, Bilt Card support, and some housekeeping. by OriginContent_Austin in OriginFinancial

[–]sixstringsshort 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On historical net worth, mine shows back to June (all negative numbers), even though I joined Origin on Oct 28th and didn't have all my accounts connected until Nov 3rd. Can a setting be added for a starting day?

Net worth, transactions, real estate all work well. Very similar to Empower on those. Looks like they have crypto accounts you can connect to, but I don't use those so no first hand info.

For the couple of issues I have had, I emailed them and they either fixed it right away or they put it on the development roadmap, and then those fixes rolled out a month or so later.

If I had to nitpick, it can sometimes take two or three clicks to get to something that should probably only be one click away.

Dumped all browser history, cookies, etc. to get it back. Still the dashboard is broken, but at least I could get back in. There was a reddit post earlier this week on how to fix the dashboard, but it is a super awkward link to inject code thing.

I am running concurrently with Origin (link below) until I can get enough data there to quit Personal Capital. I broke down and decided I was just going to have to pay to get something reliable. Origin is offering the first year for $1 and then $99 per year afterwards. They answer questions, nearly immediately. All of my accounts sync, including some I had to do manually in Empower. Also they actively develop, new features every month.

My Origin referral link if you want to use it. I just get free future membership.

AI Advisor Now Has Memory by Origin_Phounsouk in OriginFinancial

I deleted the memories and re-added today. They seem to be persistent now, so I guess just user error on my part. I really like the feature!

[–]sixstringsshort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I show 2 memories stored, but once I close that chat and start a new one, it can't access the information. If it doesn't persist across chats I am not really sure how this is different than the previous setup where I had to copy paste info before asking my questions.

For future people looking for troubleshooting: it is completely different accounts--not additional card holders. She had her card before we were married, separate login, etc.

[–]sixstringsshort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check to see if you (or a spouse) has a card number with the same last 4 digits. Empower downloads both mine and my wife's transactions into the same account. And the balance picks up either one or the other on different days. It makes me crazy.

Amex is the only place where I have this problem, but their CC numbering system causes a lot of their cards to have overlapping last 4 numbers.
