College student looking to buy my first DSLR setup. What would you recommend to start with? I’m a college student looking to expand my photography hobby.

Fair college savings allocations between kids I finally got around to opening up 529s for my kids. I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old. I’m trying to think through how to be fair to them as I fund the accounts both with any lump sums that come in over the years and with monthly payments to each. I’ll probably sell 20k or so of stock I’ve got in a taxable account to get things started and t…

If They’d Told Me We Were Poor, I Would’ve Given This Commencement Speech to Other Poor College Graduates Well, look at you. You’re all so brand spanking new, shiny, and gleaming. The world was made for the likes of you as you are now. Young. Supple. Idealistic. Yes, even the goths with their cloaks of (imaginary? performative?) sorrow, black as their black kohl-rimmed eyes. Yes, you are hopeful and just as starry-eyed and dreamy as the sunshiny one…

Continue to fund 529 once kids near college age? Have two children (18 and 16 years old) and have been funding their 529 accounts at the maximum amount of 14k/year. Thanks to a great market, both have 200k at this point. The 18 year old has decided on his college which should be just under 50k/year with room and board so i stopped funding his 529. The 16 year old just did some college tours an…

The college b…

I try asking for a little more elaboration (in the form of an itemized receipt) from the Bursar and he doesn’t, all he said in his email was repeating my letter from the mail already said. I’m not going to be mailing the school $1200 when I don’t know what it’s for, that’s just not in the cards right…
