My match sucks. Max is I put in 4% and they give me 1%. It’s pretty terrible. They pay me well and I get a decent amount of PTO though. There’s always trade offs. |

I’m very fortunate to say the least. We also get a pension as well. I’m trying to put in as much as I can, looking to retire around 55ish, maybe earlier. Things also can change in our industry and taxes only go up.

RE: HSA investing. Does your HSA admin only let you invest in certain funds?
My HSA gives me like a dozen investment options to choose from and doesn't appear to give me full control. No complaints as I've been putting it in a Vanguard ETF that's been up like 25% but I'm mostly just wondering if thats SOP for HSA's or just unique to mine or if I'm a reerun that can barely read. |

6 years ago we bought a house for about 50% the amount we “qualified” for. I couldn’t believe what they thought we could afford! And they wonder how so many people get in trouble and can’t pay their mortgage ......house poor! |

Same with most colleges. I try to get an answer for how much the cost will be per semester for my kids and 95% of the time the college doesn’t answer but rather tries to talk me into a loan. I tell them I don’t want a loan, I want to know the cash price.......then they try to talk me into a loan again. Most colleges are in the banking/lending business now.

Pretty much. I've never had much debt at all, because I'm not ****ing stupid.
"We can give you an FHA loan for that small amount you need to buy a house. Or you can have a less ****y loan for this HUGE AMOUNT!!!!!!" Get ****ed. |

Just a thought regarding (FRX)
With these SPAC's they always issue warrants that are much cheaper in price and many times run much more than the stock FRX moved about 40% in two days FRX.WS moved 170% in two days |

Every mortgage conversation includes that part about the maximum they'll let you have. Dealing with lenders is always a reminder of how humans often treat each other like sh*t. |
