For example, could a retired couple that spends half the year at their northern home and the other half at their coastal home get on a new local plan when they move every 6 months (and...

    Proud new Speed Queen owners

    Thanks to all the advice and reviews on this forum, we decided to buy a Speed Queen washing machine. I am hoping we will never have to buy another washing machine again as long as we live.

    Purchasing a walker?

    Will regular health insurance help pay for a walker if someone has a demonstrated need for one as well as a doctor's order? I think Medicare/Medicaid will help pay, but this person needs a walker immediately, has not been approved for disability yet, but does have regular group health insurance...

    Can I contribute to both a 457b & a regular IRA?

    I know that I can contribute to both a 457b and a Roth IRA in the same tax year. However, I am trying to figure out if I can instead contribute to and max out both a 457b and a regular IRA in the same tax year. Almost all of the information I can find only talks about contributing to a Roth IRA...

    Reviews on Surency or HealthcareBank HSA plans and fees?

    I am looking at having my boyfriend sign up for an HDHP and an HSA for 2016. His employer uses Surency (which may actually be HealthcareBank) as their HSA plan provider. I have been searching high and low for a list of their fees, rules, and mutual fund choices, but have not come up with...

    My boyfriend and I are going to end our business relationship with his financial adviser soon, and I would be taking over the management of his accounts.

    Has anyone been to FinCon or want to go?

    Just curious if there is anyone who has been to and/or spoken at FinCon OR would like to go to FinCon?

    Good time for a Roth Conversion?

    The markets have taken a bit of a tumble this week; of course we never know where the bottom is, or when the market will turn around. Keeping that in mind, would now be a good time to do a Roth Conversion? I have never done one before, so I would love some feedback from ya'll. Can I just choose...

    Any Quicken Gurus out there?

    I have two questions about Quicken, and I am still a newbie so I don't know if I should be posting two threads, or if just this one is OK. 1) Is there a Quicken user community or forum on this site or another site that is super useful? I did not see a forum dedicated to "tracking" software...
