A young friend has asked me for some help getting started with investing and I would love to get some recommendations and advice from the group here. She is not interested in learning a lot about finance or the market and initially asked me about finding an advisor to do this for her (which I...

We usually go to a friends party for at least 20 people, but that's obviously not happening this year, so I've been scrounging around for interesting recipes that feel like it's a holiday but won't leave us with too many leftovers. I'm going to try this Turkey Porchetta for the main course...

I'm playing with TurboTax, trying to figure out what income to use for ACA enrollment after I retire next year and I've got some questions. We have a passive activity loss of $30K on form 8582, but we're limited by income and AMT as to how much we can claim, so it sits there as a carryover...

Hi, I joined this site a couple of years ago, but never introduced myself. DH and I live near San Diego. He's 53, and left a job of 26 years last summer. I'm 52 and planning to retire next year, ending a career in tech. We've got $2.4M saved, with about $900K of that in after-tax accounts. My...
