    2019 Taxes

    I will grant your professional credentials trump mine specifically towards taxation knowledge as I am not a CPA. That said, I have done tax prep professionally in the past as a side job. Also, I’ve been working in the financial services industry for 26 + yrs.….mainly on the compliance/tax...

    If retiring in less than a year, you'd assume the person was already conservatively allocated in the market with a heavier emphasis on more conservative investments.

    Jim Cramer famously said Bear Sterns wouldn't go down as part of the 2008 meltdown so he isn't exactly the boy that cried wolf. He was more optimistic than reality,. (how does this guy even have a job any longer?? ) Listen, I get the long term investment horizon speech, but I also don't...

    It appears you live in LA. Don't you just hand your paycheck over to the nearest gov't agency to process? ;)

    ....and he looks terrible if you've seen recent pictures/video. . He is not aging well which should send up red flags to anyone looking into this as a way to eat.

    Yeah....it is interesting how my perspective has changed over the yrs. I used to think I was so smart. I'm probably a bit longer in the tooth than many on the thread. I've subjected my aggressive investing in my 401k to the dot.com bubble, 09/11, 2008, etc. etc. There is no doubt that...

    Good grief you're like a little brother that doesn't know when to stop. It has been requested that thread stay on topic. I admitted to being part of the problem Pls put on your big boy/girl pants too and move on.

    Yes, it is well done, but it has since been heavily refuted. Yes, if you come from a SAD (Standard American Diet) to something more restrictive, you drop all the crap we were never exposed to putting in our bodies as human species evolved over thousands of years and yes, you'll have positive...

    I didn't stop it. True. Guilty as charged.

    I responded. I didn't initiate. I'd like to draw that distinction (because it helps my defense. :)

    I know this would never happen, but a man can dream. I would love it if the admins could banish those that can't control their impulses to turn a thread political. Some type of temporary suspension to where they could only post in the cave (i.e....access to all other forms would be blocked)...

    First off, no I don't unless you can't distinguish that nuisances exist in any discussion like this. More importantly, please don't expect me to explain or support Trump's narrative. You must have me confused with someone else. (I don't understand why so many people assume everyone is...

    LOL...instead of refuting the argument, you attack the source. Lazy. Should be easy to refute...but ...oh...there is a video evidence....ouch....

    2019 Taxes

    Your first point is a false choice. You can choose to take more take home pay and invest that difference in the markets. You're not required to put it in savings account. Anticipated credits easily be calculated ahead of time too. Do people just wake up one morning and there is a newborn...

    You don't recall that messaging coming from the prior administration too? Just because they communicated it more eloquently ( not hard), it is still the same crap.

    2019 Taxes

    A lot of people seem to enjoy loaning their hard earned dollars, interest free, to the gov't...and then get annoyed when they don't pay it back fast enough. Full disclosure - we over-withhold each year, so get refunds. I"m too lazy to take the time to figure out the proper w/h amt. That...

    Vikings fans...

    I read/heard somewhere that there are a projected 40 or so WRs coming to the draft that maybe pro-ready. So given that large of a pool, it will be unlikely that many teams will burn a 1st round choice on WR this year. They can wait until later rounds. Given the # of WR in the draft, that...
