I also have some RSUs that have vested. Should I conti…

Roth IRA vs. company 401(k) Hi all, just started a new position and the company offers a 401(k) with no match. I also have a Roth IRA that I’ve been contributing to separately for years. Since I won’t be in a position to max out both 401(k) or Roth IRA, wondering which of these vehicles I should use to park my retirement savings (aiming for $800/mo) in going forward? What …

LPT Your health insurance company might reimburse gym memberships and/or equipment I recently learned that my health insurance company reimburses gym memberships, or gym equipment purchases of up to $150 a year per person. Depending on what gym you’re signed up to and what health insurance plan you have, it could mean you can basically be a member for free! Check with your insurance carrier or your place of employment to see i…

Therapy company mislead me and now I owe a huge bill

Therapy company mislead me and now I owe a huge bill I started with a new therapist recently. When I initially signed up I made sure my insurance was accepted. The other thing was I had not hit my deductible so I wanted to know the upfront cost. I was told the initial consultation was $150 and every appointment after was $100. I only had a $1000 dollar deductible so I wasn’t worried about it too m…

Can I become a distributor for the company I work for? Not sure if this is the appropriate thread to ask this question to. I am an engineer for a small family business. Most of the time, customer service gets a call on how to buy the company’s products, which CSR would respond by telling them to get with a distributor. I have been thinking of creating a brand, LLC, an online store, and plugging in …

Should I invest in my company’s 401k if I plan to leave within the next year? My company has a several year vesting period. Is it worth it to sign up for my company’s 401k plan if I plan to leave long before it’s vested? Or would my money have better use in a different investment since I won’t be getting the match regardless? submitted by /u/preloom

My company stock is a blessing and a curse. So I’m about 17 years away from projected retirement with a slightly above average 401K. 50% of that is composed of company stock from when we were a private company and then went public. That was a great boost to my account when everything converted over. However since going public in 2020 the stock has underperformed the rest of my 401K portf…

Insurance company wants me to pay them back directly with money I never received from them? Hi folks. My son had an ER visit in early April. Total of about 12 hours.
