| Posted: 05 May 2019 03:18 AM PDT Current job details: 102k salary No bonus No match Good health insurance 3 weeks PTO Well respected, treated very well Great work/life balance The financial outlook for the company is rocky. They have significant debts and some serious challenges to overcome. It's possible the company goes under at some point in the future. It's also possible the company survives in which case I'll be extremely well-positioned. The potential is great at this company but the risk is too. New job offer: 100k salary Up to 15% bonus 4% match Great health insurance 3 weeks PTO Will have to work more hours and do a bit of traveling Huge, stable company When I told my boss I had a good job offer, he looked panicked and basically told me that we would work out whatever salary and vacation it takes to keep me. He is going to make me a substantial pay raise and vacation increase offer to stay tomorrow. I love my boss and I love working for the company though it is sometimes stressful working for a company with financial strain. My boss sees me as a big part of getting the company on the right track and even mentioned future potential of ownership interest if things get turned around. It's possible we right the ship but it's also possible we don't and I'm out of a job altogether. It's very hard to predict exactly when and how likely it is that all that could happen. I don't think that I can easily find another job offer like the one I've got on the table. It's a really good job but I also won't have the same executive leader type potential that I have at the smaller company. If my current company goes under, I would be able to find a job but it probably wouldn't be as good as this one. My SO has a stable career and makes more than me. No kids or debt other than mortgage. Before I talked to my boss, my plan would have been to counter the job offer at 110k and 4 weeks PTO. Now I am expecting my boss to offer me about 125k and 5 weeks PTO to stay. How should I play this? He's all but told me to name my salary. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 05 May 2019 02:39 PM PDT I do deliveries for a family member's company as a part-time weekend job. While performing a delivery in their van I backed into a parked car and scratched and dented the rear passenger door. Now my employer is telling me that it is my policy info that I have to provide, as the work van I was using was registered as a personal use vehicle and not a commercial vehicle. Policy and registration on the van are under my employer's name. Who is liable in this situation? It doesn't seem right that my policy pays out for a work related incident in a vehicle belonging to and insured by my employer.

| A Quick Comparison of High-Yield Savings Accounts Posted: 05 May 2019 01:53 AM PDT As we all know, most people don't really shop around much when it comes to financial products. Even for people who do, it can be kind of confusing. Recently, I was helping a friend pick out a high-yield savings account (after they had made a whopping ~$10.00 after having a Wells Fargo savings account for a decade), and put together a list of what exactly is available on the market today. I figured that other people might find it useful. If you have anything to add, feel free, and I'll try to integrate it. Highly Recommended These accounts all have APYs over 2%--generally what one wants to be looking at nowadays--have virtually nonexistent requirements to open and earn interest, and have no hoops to jump through. All are also with well-known, established financial institutions, have generally average-to-superior customer service, and easy to use websites and/or apps.
Look Good, But I Don't Know Enough to Recommend Fully There are a few high-yield savings account that definitely look good on paper, but, because of a combination of things, primarily lack of information (and the fact that some, like Comenity Direct, haven't even been around for a full month), as well as additional hoops to jump through, I cannot fully recommend at this time.
Note that Comenity Direct and Vio are part of large, well-established financial institutions. Worth Considering In addition, there are a few other options out there that, based on your particular situation, may be worth considering. Many of these require large deposits to open, large balances to earn a high APY, or have some sort of gimmick (or, in the case of Bank5 Connect, have an APY that's so low that it isn't really worth it unless you have a checking account with them).
Conclusions As one can see, there are a lot of different options out there when it comes to high-yield savings accounts. There are a few others that I'm aware of (Banesco USA, Investors eAccess, Rising Bank, UFB Direct, etc) that I can't really find anything about, the information I can find is inconsistent and contradictory, etc. Regardless, there are plenty of options out there--there's no reason to earn under 2% APY on a savings account. Note that rates are subject to change, and there are other interest-bearing accounts--money market, checking, etc--as well as other financial instruments such as CDs out there. This is just meant to be a breakdown of basic savings accounts. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 05 May 2019 03:50 PM PDT So, basically, I owe money on a medical bill that got sent to collectors 30 days after I was billed it. This same company that charged me this got hit by a lawsuit for overcharging patients...so that may be related (Novant healthcare). Anyways, I told my insurance company I was charged this bill and wasn't clear why I owed as much as the collection agency is claiming I owe. They contacted them and told them they need to group the amount from around 700 dollars to 300 dollars. When they did this though, it for whatever reason shows on my credit score now and my credit score dropped 100 points. Note, this wasn't me asking to negotiate down the amount I owe. This is the collection agency and the original biller asking for TOO MUCH money. I have repeatedly asked them to send me a bill (by asking the insurance company to ask them for it) and they haven't sent one. I also asked them to update my address via the insurance company and it appears they had the wrong one (may be why I haven't gotten the bill), but they also won't update it unless I call. Basically, it sounds like they are trying to get me to call them. Since they hit my credit score 100 points at this point, is it even worth paying off this debt at this point? Or is there someway to pay it off and have the points go away? My credit score was 800+ points before this. Now it is 700 some points. It has never been this low and I'm super pissed off. Can someone please help me make sense of this and what is the best way to approach this? Should I just pay it off? Or is there some way to get my credit score to go back up? Thanks for any help.

| How much money should I have in my bank account if I’m buying a house soon? Posted: 05 May 2019 07:30 PM PDT I'm in the market for a house but I'm wondering if I can even afford it. I'm looking at houses that cost about $120-130k, no maintenance required. I'd like to put down 10% (yes yes I know that means PMI). But how much are closing costs usually? And how much extra money should I have in my savings after the down payment and closing costs. Extra info you might need: I have excellent credit (above 750) and I would have a roommate to contribute about $450-500/month.

| Buying a vehicle, am I being scammed? Posted: 05 May 2019 08:12 PM PDT I'm potentially buying a 2005 GMC Savana 1500 tomorrow. I negotiated down from 18895 to $17800 and I will additionally provide them a trade in valued at $1000. They believe I have no down payment currently. So the loan amount would be $16800. They claimed that they can get my monthly payment to $350. When I asked what the interest rate was on this loan, they said 5%. But after messing around with a car loan calculator for a bit, I can't get the numbers to add up. This is a 60 month loan. Do the numbers add up?

| Posted: 05 May 2019 05:09 AM PDT I'll be eligible to retire from my career at 47 and would like to have enough saved to at least have the option to do so then, but I'm having a hard time calculating how much money I'll need to bridge the gap from 47 to when I can access my 401k. Everything I've found is about how to make your money last through retirement, but I'm perfectly okay with the account hitting $0 at 59 1/2. Details: Pension at 47 = 35,000 (will move up each year with inflation) Current annual spending = 63,000 (will also inflate) Deficit = 28,000 There's the obvious, simple way of 12.5 * 28,000, but if I have $350,000 I assume I'll be earning a decent dividend to reduce my withdrawals. The actual amount I need has to be lower than that by a fair amount, right? Thank you for any guidance you can provide!

| Posted: 05 May 2019 02:32 PM PDT Hi, I'm new here and I'm a student who doesn't know a whole lot about finances and insurance. This is a matter that my mom used to handle but she passed away last year and I've been left somewhat unprepared to handle all of the financial issues that are popping up. Last year, to help take care of my mom while she was sick, I transferred to my home state university. I spent a semester as a non-degree seeking student and then I became a degree-seeking student starting in the summer. I started last fall as a full-time student but my mom passed away somewhat suddenly and I started struggling in my classes. My advisor helped me ease out of my classes and apply for a withdrawal without a "W" on my transcript and also I was able to get my tuition back. Since I was technically considered a "full-time student" at the start of the semester, I was asked to provide a waiver for my health insurance--proof that I had third party coverage. This request was sent to my student e-mail which I wasn't using at the time because I had stopped attending classes. Also, as I mentioned, this was typically a matter that my mom had handled when she helped me with school forms and everything. I didn't know to be looking out for this. Additionally, since I'd been attending classes at the school for over a semester, I didn't realize that there would be additional paperwork upon becoming a "degree-seeking student." Anyway, by the end of the semester when I get the bill, I come to find out that I had been charged for the student health insurance. $5,000 that I really don't have. Also, I'm already paying for a third party health insurance. I immediately called the student health insurance company and told them that there had been some mistake and misunderstanding but they said that since I was a full-time student at the time of the charge, I am ineligible for a refund. I asked if I could please write an appeal discussing my personal matters because I feel as though they make a significant difference in the narrative and she said fine. I wrote an appeal in February. Several weeks ago I finally heard back and they said that they are still unable to give me a refund because of when the charge was issued AND because I had used this student insurance. WHAT? They pointed to a bill from a doctor that I saw in March. I had never, not ONCE, provided this student health insurance information to ANY of my physicians. In fact, I don't even have an insurance card with this information or know my ID number. However, somehow, my physician sent a bill to the student health insurance instead of my primary (and only!) insurance company (Aetna). When I called Aetna they said that they don't even have it on file that I have an account with another company. They also said that even if they found out I had another insurance company, they would have to run it by me before diverting the charge to them. So I'm still not sure what's going on. Could the student health insurance company have been fishing for my charges? And intercepted it so that I can't successfully appeal their initial charge? Does anyone know how this could have happened? And if it's even possible to fix at this point? Also, does anyone have advice on appealing this process? Or is it as truly hopeless as they're making it sound? Thank you a whole lot for reading that wall of text, I really appreciate it.

| Afraid to spend money to enjoy myself Posted: 05 May 2019 03:53 PM PDT Trying to get over a bit of a wall here. I'll try and keep it short. I'm in the UK. Basically about 18 years ago I fell down a large mineshaft of debt and hell. This took me 15 years to crawl out of. I'll spare the details but it was a snowball of payday loans and spousal spending that clocked up £47k of debt (around $61k). Some good fortune and a career change and I'm now well in the black and have 1/3 of my income as excess every month. I have a ridiculously good pension matched contribution and I bought a house on a 50% deposit two years ago after the company I had equity in was bought out. I have 6 months' cash in the bank. This sounds wrong but it's keeping to the facts but my mother is not very well and I will likely inheriting her house in the next 5-8 years which is enough to pay the rest of mine off. However I am totally burned by the debt experience. This has given me a mortal fear of spending money. This has lead to me "trying" to buy a luxury hobby purchase for $1400 (from the US) for about three months now but every time I go to the page I fail to click the yes button at the end of the process. The item in question is something which has been in production for about 17 years now and is near the end of its run and is the last of its kind. The experience of constructing and using this is something which I had on my bucket list since the debt crisis struck. It's not anything remarkable by modern standards and instantly loses 50% of the value the moment I have constructed it (sounds stupid I know). I'm planning on purchasing this on an interest free credit card I use for international purchases (usually aliexpress/ebay) and paying £100 of the cost off every month over the space of a year. This keeps savings secure and doesn't even really touch the cash flow. I suppose the question is: should I blow this spending idea off or just jump in? I haven't really bought anything like this before. A house was an easier purchase as that has some utility for my family but I'm afraid of spending on something just for my amusement value. I spoke to a colleague about it and he wasn't bothered on spending £500 on a golf club which I was shocked at. Sorry if that was rambling.

| Asking for a raise working at a nonprofit? Posted: 05 May 2019 09:13 AM PDT Just wondering what the conventional wisdom is about this. If your job is funded by a grant, should you even bother asking for a raise? I've seen people say that to ask for a raise, you should approach your boss with something to show what monetary value you bring in to the company, but that's not really applicable for a lot of non-profits and charitable organizations.

| Posted: 05 May 2019 05:45 PM PDT My sister wants to sell her car her to me. I'm not ready to buy because I want to pool up the money and also because I am paying for my lease which I want to ride out. My sister does not need the car, she has an apartment and takes public transit. She was keeping it in a garage but it was more cost effective to leave the car at my house. She doesn't drive it so she doesn't want to keep paying for insurance. Totally understandable. I'm willing to just keep it in my garage and start the engine every once in a while to keep the battery charged. I don't want to register the car until I am ready to drive it. If she transfers the title to my name, does that means I would have to pay tax on the car at time of title change or during registration? I believe that the law requires it if I state the value as $0 or call it a gift, I would still have to pay the tax on the market value of the car. Ideal scenario: She doesn't have to pay insurance on a car she doesn't drive and I can hold off on registering / paying for insurance and tax on the car until I am ready to in September. What is the best way to do this legally? Also, just some details... finishing a lease of $160 per month to buy a 2011 car with 85K miles for $2500. Because I'm family and because she admits she hasn't taken good care of the car she's OK with going well below market value.

| Balance billing for ER visit in NY state Posted: 05 May 2019 07:16 PM PDT There was a thread about this recently, but was locked before I could ask anything. Went to the ER a few months ago for a relentless cough/resulting headache. Was seen, put on an IV and sent home. Total visit maybe three hours, very little attention needed. Got a bill for nearly $500, whew that's steep but whatever, paid it. THEN I got a bill for nearly $2,000. Was told that this was the doctor's bill, whereas the first bill was the hospital's bill. Explained that I don't have control over whether or not the ER doc is in or out of network. My insurance company from that time said that their Explanation of Benefits (aka the fine print) said something about how this is fine, that the doctor can charge anything they want. But after reading about how different state laws apply, I suppose here in NY this shouldn't be a thing after all?

| How to break the cycle, be financially stable and set/stick to a budget? Posted: 05 May 2019 10:38 AM PDT It seems like every month our finances are good for a week and then we are broke again. This is every embarassing for me to post because it's an admission of how bad our situation has become. My sole income right now is child tax benefit cheques that I recieve monthly, since I am a stay at home mom right now. My husband works in construction and used to make really good money up until a few years ago and he's never had a stable job since. He works with a friend they get jobs here and there but it's not a continuous flow and even with jobs waiting the rain we've had recently has left him staying home more days than he's working. I cannot support our family on my $1200 cheque. I am thankful we live with my father who we pay only $400 to for rent and what's left is spent on groceries and the kids, plus my husband's cigarettes and beer, and other expenses. He does make money but I honestly think it doesn't even add up to the amount I recieve. My plan is to continue my education and obtain a degree once my son is old enough for school but with the way things are going now I dont know if it will happen. I've tried finding him work but they never pan out. He's dug himself in a deep hole, now having his license suspended, possible charges brought against him for DUI, plus no family car since he totalled it a few months ago. I'm trying my best to deal with the hand I've been dealt, I manage my money when the cheque comes but a week later were broke! I try so hard to budget and put money away, I stupidly decided to go out with a friend last night and we spent $50 which I feel terrible about. Plus our eldest's birthday is next month which I'm panicked over. I feel stuck in a cycle I can't escape. My husband may be sentenced to jail in a few months so securing a long term job seems pointless to him (and me too honestly) but there must be something better in the meantime! Even making minimum wage would bring in more than we currently are making, or he could stay home with the youngest and I could get a job, anything to help. I don't want to live with my dad, I have goals and a future but I'm stuck in a cycle. I don't know how to go about making changes and improving the situation. I used to receive $800 and managed to make it work for the month for myself and one kid and have money to save, back when my husband was making more money. Now it's like he's so used to not paying rent or paying bills so life is so easy, he can use my "free" money when he's broke and so it continues. Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated. I try to take out cash and hide it from myself until the end of the month but around the 2nd week it's being spent..

| Posted: 05 May 2019 08:38 PM PDT OKay so I'm trying to get a capital one credit card because you can customize it and I want to put my cat on it. Right now I have discover and I don't pay any fees or anything but I want to have a more aesthetic card. I noticed all the capital one cards have an APR. "0% intro APR for 15 months; 22.24% variable APR after that" is what it says. No idea what that means. Is APR a fee? I pay off all my credit instantly. I use it mainly as a cashback machine and it's more secure than using a debit card. I don't give a rats scrotum about loans and credit and all that stuff. Will APR affect me in any way?

| Posted: 05 May 2019 05:59 PM PDT Hi all, Recently, due to my dads deteriorating health, I quit my job and moved states. Being with him and being able to help him in his time of need has been spiritually rewarding, but unfortunately that don't pay the bills. I am currently unemployed and with the current demands of his treatments and doctor visits it might be a little while before I get back into full time employment. I am 27 yrs old with about 7k in savings but 14k in debt. Currently my biggest expense is my car (gas and insurance), and my cell phone bill. Living with my dad, housing, cable and food (for the most part) is covered. So monthly between bills, credit cards and loans my expenses are about $600. For the last 3 or so years I contributed to a 401K plan through my previous employer. Last I checked it was about to around 17k. I was curious of whether or not it's a good idea to cash out, and if so how much money would I lose by doing it. Or will it be better to ride my savings out as much as I can until I get a full or part time position? Any and all advice will be appreciated!

| Which debt should I pay off first? And how? (Australia) Posted: 05 May 2019 07:14 PM PDT Hi! I live in Australia and I'm in a debt agreement as well as have a student debt to repay to the government. I pay $140 a fortnight in debt agreement repayments and my student debt is paid via my tax bracket however I've been voluntarily paying an extra $20 tax per fortnight. I'm in a relationship with a man a couple of years older than me, and after our trip he wants to settle down and buy a house. He is fully aware of my debt consolidation and student loan. Which means I need to get serious about knuckling down and getting out of debt. To break down my fortnightly expenses: I earn $1875 a fortnight. $360 - rent $140 - debt agreement $40 - bus pass $15 - private health $50 - groceries $25 - utilities $25 - chiropractor (monthly) $12 - Spotify (monthly) I have no phone/internet expenses as my job covers that. I probably spend max $200 a fortnight in entertainment/general spending. I have no car and my partner has an all expenses paid work car so no costs there. All of the above leaves me $1,000 a fortnight rounded down. That's a lot of money and I don't know where to put it, and I'm so mad at myself/feel sick when I think of all the money I've pissed away. My student debt is currently at $14,888.05. My debt agreement is currently at $10,780. This is due to be paid off in 2022. If I paid off my student debt first, I'll be paying a lot less tax and my take home pay would increase. If I paid off my debt agreement first, my take home pay will also increase but it also means I'm no longer 'black listed' and can work on rebuilding my credit score (currently at 190. Fucking yikes). Which should be paid first? My student loan with the government, or my debt agreement that's fucked my credit score? And what would be the best way to do this? If student loan: should I opt to pay a shit tonne more of tax, or save the money and make voluntary contributions? The same with the debt agreement: should I increase my repayments, or just save for a year and make a lump sum? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Would also love some extra tips on rebuilding my credit score if you have any. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| software gigs vs. handyman gigs for earning money after 50? Posted: 05 May 2019 08:33 AM PDT Context: I am in early 50's, and co-signed a business loan for my wife. As you may guess, she is unable to pay for this loan (or others) and I need to increase my income to cover these expenses. I need to earn $1000 more per month. I currently earn around $7000 (after taxes) per month. Yes, I would love it if she could earn more but history has repeatedly informed me that I am on my own here. About Me: I have worked as a Software Developer for over 30 years. I have experience in Oracle/Salesforce/NodeJS/Java/Linux/Wordpress/PHP/Ruby and many many more. I am a competent software developer who has been well reviewed over my 30 year career. I am also kind of handy around the house and I am able to do light plumbing/electrical/etc.. The Problem: I think I should try to find some software gigs because it would help me stay relevant and fresh in my field. The software development gigs should help me work another 10+ years in my career. I have submitted a few proposals on upwork, I have had no responses. It seems so competitive because I am competing against folks from all over the globe for that gig. The other option is to try to get some side plumbing/electrical gigs locally. While that won't help my software career, I will be able to pay the bills. It's seems less competitive since I am only competing in the local market. Should I continue to look for gigs on upwork or go for local handyman gigs? Appreciate your thoughts on this matter, it's a real dilemma for me.
