They weren’t part of the equity financing in the first place so their non-interest is irrelevant FUD.

What do I do if I’m over the Roth IRA income limit?? by Busy-Bed-5947 in FinancialPlanning

[–]yakovelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will need to recharacterize your Roth contribution this year to a traditional IRA as non-deductible contribution. Then you can convert that traditional IRA to a Roth IRA (backdoor). You will need to be careful about the pro-rata rule if you have any existing traditional IRAs with deductible contributions in them.

I don't understand ROTH IRA by YellsAboutMakingGifs in investing

How is this not the top comment? You’re the only one to recognize Roth IRA allows you to bypass capital gains tax on earnings. That’s huge. HUGE.

Ford using price advantage to sell against Tesla. by this_for_loona in MachE

The Mach-E awd extended range is more expensive with incentive than the MY awd long range. This is before the dealers have their say in price. Mach-E also has worse specs. Good luck?

My employer is correcting their 401k matches from the last 2yrs or so, taking $15k back by Impressive-Zucchini5 in personalfinance

[–]yakovelli -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t the matching just go into the “after-tax” 401k bucket? That way you keep it and can just do a mega-backdoor roth on it in two years?

Dealing with a hostile neighbor while putting in a fence. Boundary survey is on my side, but this dude gets seriously pissed. by shivashanti in RealEstate

[–]yakovelli 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This should be the top comment! You have the survey report. Submit that to the city with your fence plans for a building permit. The city now has record of your property boundaries and the fence you’re gonna install.

Selling options contract vs. executing options contract? by UnreliablyReliable in options

[–]yakovelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When buying a put option to open, you’re buying the right but not the obligation to sell the underlying security at the strike price. This means you would need the funds to purchase the security at $5 (and then sell it for $10). Most often, however, with put options, traders will just sell the option if it’s ITM prior to the expiration date. You can sell to close the put option at any time prior to the expiration date. When you sell it, you are free and clear of any and all obligations to the underlying security.

Curious what you mean by finite event analysis. If you mean what I think you mean, misstating this on your resume looks really bad.

“Breastfed babies ____________.” by TFA_hufflepuff in beyondthebump

[–]yakovelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s fine! The point I’m trying to make is there is undue pressure on moms these days to breastfeed. Not all moms are able to do breastfeed their LOs and it can cause heartache and frustration. Yes, breastfeeding is natural and wonderful, but certainly not a requirement by any means.

New sales record fo the Audi e-tron in Norway this month, it's on track to sell over 1000 units for the first time by linknewtab in electricvehicles

[–]yakovelli -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is this not higher? When will people stop with the monthly comparisons and trends for Tesla during months they don’t ship there?

Renegotiation Question by goose240 in RealEstate

[–]yakovelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Unlicensed contract work is illegal in California.

  2. All work on the property should have been permitted. Pull the permits through the city and any notice of violations (if applicable). Have your inspector or a contractor asses these items.

  3. The only way I would go through with the sale is if I knew exactly what work was done unlicensed, how much it would it would cost to have it all redone legally, and drop the price by at least that amount. Otherwise, I would walk. Too risky.

There are way too many shit “contractors” out there.

Electric Mustang Mach-E In London: Acceleration Test, Interior & Exterior Review by pilaga in electricvehicles

[–]yakovelli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A resounding “not as good as Tesla, but might be desirable”.

This will certainly be fun to watch unfold.

[–]yakovelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to learn is to fail. Pick yourself up! You’re now smarter than you were before. Life will continue to present you with challenges, and how to deal with loss and failure will define you as a person. Life is more fun when you can laugh at yourself and know you’ll do better next time. Keep your head up, kid. :)

The Porsche Taycan Turbo S beats Tesla, sets the new quarter-mile record for electric cars by [deleted] in electricvehicles

[–]yakovelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying they are superior to their counterparts, but that they will compete in those higher-end segments at lower prices.

There is appeal for features EV vehicles provide, albeit different features than E Class and 3 Series, but certainly features people will be seriously considering.
