Re: Best & Worst "Mid-Life Crisis" expenditures

Spend a bit more than I usually might on one of my typical "splurges" (for me that's jewelry, art, and travel--for others I know it might be cars, watches, fine wine, hobbies, etc) Dye my hair a fun color (I've always wanted to do this but never have due to fears about what others would think, mostly in the work environment) Get a tattoo :shock: (never have for the same reason as above--would be somewhere where it wouldn't be visible in work clothes) All of the above? Never had desire for a permanent tattoo although I've done a henna tattoo or two. Loved the hair dyeing - blue was my preferred. When there was talk about returning to the office I decided I wouldn't be able to because I'd just dyed my hair. Priorities. :D I'm back ...

Re: New passport how long to obtain?

Renewed long expired passport very recently at the post office and was told 6-8 weeks. Received it in exactly two. Thanks to all for the replies. Sunflower, did you renew or did you have to obtain a new passport? My understanding is that if the passport was issued more then 15 years ago it can not be renewed. I am under the impression that a new passport takes longer then a renewal. My old passport was a couple years past renewal eligibility so I had to start from the beginning. Passport $110, post office processing fee $35, post office photograph fee $15 (you can get photos cheaper elsewhere; it was a convenience). There is a line on the form where they ask your travel date, I was asked about it because I left it blank. This may be of imp...

Re: Thank you notes,,, out of favor these days?

As a long-distance maiden aunt with no children, I sincerely appreciate and enjoy thank you notes from the nieces/nephews and now great-nieces/nephews, written specifically to me, in their handwriting and sometimes baby scrawl (with mom holding the pencil/crayon). The notes have given me such joy over the years and I've loved hearing from them in their words (especially going from small children to teens), some including what they did that day or what they plan to do with the gift. I've been disappointed when gifts weren't acknowledged, not so much because a thank you note was deemed deserved, but because I felt the gift wasn't appreciated and I missed their banter. It isn't just a "thank you" -- it means something to some people.

No. Yes? It's more where/how the money was invested, like a few others have mentioned. I'm winding down my work years and have nothing in taxable, a nice amount in Roth IRA/401k and very nice amount in a traditional 401k. Now I struggle with the best way to do things - moving to a LCOL state and buying a home and furnishings (life-long renter), and wary of the ACA subsidy cliff. I contemplate using Roth funds to buy a home outright (it was after all intended to be an emergency fund) and retire without debt/mortgage. Now I'm considering taking 401k distributions while still employed if possible, in order to avoid the subsidy cliff and have something on the outside.

I know there is the liability thing, but I'd be willing to sign all that Against Medical Advice paperwork if you think the chances of something happening to me en route are less than 10%." How many hospitals allow this? I asked to take a taxi once instead of a ambulance, and they said no. It wasn't due to medical necessity. According to the nurse they just don't allow it.

Question re 401(k) contribution discrepancy

Last year my bonus was deposited into my 401(k) on the last day of December. It did not register until the next business day, i.e., the next year. My check stub says the amount was contributed for 2015, my 401(k) account claims the contribution was made in 2016. Which is the correct/legal deposit date? I'm kind of bummed that I won't be able to deposit my bonus this year (because I will be maxed out); alternatively, this would also mean I didn't max out in 2015.

Any idea which is the "real" date of the annual contribution?
