As the title says, should I be concerned? I get the impression this is just a bureaucratic change (company doesn’t want to deal with both salaried and hourly workers for timesheet reporting). But I’d like to make sure.

Need help please. If I am enrolled in 2024 for 10 months of the year (March-December) in an HSA-elligible HDHP will I be able to max out my HSA to the individual contribution limit of $4,150 or will I get hit with a big tax penalty? Do I have to “pro-rate” my contributions and subtract the first two months since I was not...

Looking to pay off $15k of student loan debt of my partner. It’s something we could wipe out with cash on hand if we wanted to relatively quickly. But one of the loans is 4.5%. Am I better off just riding that out but keeping the cash in for that loan in a HY savings account or keep reinvesting it in short term CD’s that...
What are my options when my provider sends me a bill without submitting a claim with my med insurance, and is ignoring my repeated requests to submit the claim and send me a revised bill post-settlement? How do I prove that I do not owe the billed amount, and I do not owe them anything until they claim it through my insurance...
I had my taxes all sorted(I’m using Tax Slayer) and was just waiting for them to actually submit the return when it’s time. I was figuring it wouldn’t be until around the 29th, but I just got an email tonight that said the irs had accepted my federal return. Are they accepting returns already, or is that email probably a...

Prices of things are becoming absolutely insane. $800+ rent, $30,000 cars, $10 sub sandwiches, etc. It would be nice to do a 3/1 split and cut everything by 2/3. Then we would have $266 rent, $10,000 cars, and $3.33 sub sandwiches. Wages, debts, everything would drop to 1/3 what they are now. It would also make coins useful...

Hi everyone, I recently landed a new job where the base 401(k) contribution for all FTEs is 12% of your salary. This is regardless of your contribution, with no additional match. I realize that this is unusual for most people and it is for me as well. In my last job, I got up to a 6% match so I maxed that out and didn't think on...
I’ve read that if you have the money up front, investing it as a lump sum on January 1st will produce higher returns more often that investing on a monthly/weekly basis. Is there more to consider in 2024 with our current high interest rates?

I moved countries a few years ago and am building up my credit score from scratch. I’m cognizant of good practices to build up my credit score like paying my credit card on time. My credit score dropped 10 points in the last month but I don’t know why. I’ve increased my spending on my card because of Christmas and...
Looking for a brokerage with functional, individual API access to, at least, account positions, balances, and equity/fund/bond prices. Used to be happy with TDA, but they got bought by Scwab, whose API has been “pending” for six months.
TL;DR: Credit union account rates low, I moved, and even though the app and co-op network are great, not sure if I should leave....
