cute fuzzy bunny
Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Sooo...since I'm strapping on the tuxedo this august, anyone thats been married in ER or become married after ER have any pointers on any investment/tax/financial changes for better or for worse, in sickness and in health...whoops.
I'm looking for this info myself, but maybe y'all already know.
For example...I have some capital losses...can I use them to offset her capital gains if we're 'married filing jointly'? Since I have little to no net taxable income, am I better off doing us separately or can I use my low tax status to drag her taxabiliy costs down? I cant open or contribute to a roth because I have no 'earned income'; can I do so as a married 'couple' where she does have earned income?
What other little "goodies" have y'all "discovered"?
