Anyone done the math on investing Solar panel money in the market vs. the savings on Electricity bills? Wondering how that came out for you?

But if my math is correct, I don’t think there is any financial way to justify solar. If I invest the $$ (lets says its $45k , or even $25k after rebates) at 7% annual growth. That seems like it should far exceed the money sav…

They said they were gonna deposit it in a savings account to accrue interest on it, and if I wanted to buy a new car (I drive a 05 Trailblazer with 213,000 miles) I could use that $20,000 towards a car. Today I asked for t…

What’s the point of hav…

What’s the financially smart thing to do with money that isn’t going towards bills? Outside of necessary expenses and purchasing luxury goods, what’s the right thing to do with savings? Invest all of it? Some of it? Should I invest it in basically the same way that I’ve invested my Roth IRA, i.e., a three-fund portfolio? Something else? submitted by /u/Jseegs123

What happens to your medical bills when you die over 18 (single)? I’m not sure if this is the right sub, but I thought I’d ask. My 24 year old sister passed away last night from a drug overdose.
