retirement planning

Submitted by debtstinker on Tue, 11/06/2007 - 01:54

Hopefully this is the right forum for this question. I am hoping to get a new job very soon that offers retirement. We desparately need the money and so I'm wondering if anyone else out there has held off putting money in their retirement until your company matches? my old company waited until either the fiscal year started in July to start matching up to 7% or January of the following year. they did not offer to match any other times and it depended when you came in to the company. again this is a curiosity issue. I know that you don't miss that money when you get it taken out of your check...wondering what others have done. thanks in advance

Yes that is it. I remember seeing it on the w2. I always let out tax guy do all the work. He is a preacher and doesn't charge much to do them and e-file them. Like $40. I know ERB that is $40 in my pocket but I would lose that much sleep if I did them myself plus he always finds us so many tax deductions and is updated on all the things that go along with the tax world. I would probaly forget a deduction or not relize there was an extra credit of some kind out there and lose more than what I paid him any way.

Are you kidding that is an awesome price, have you price hr block lately? It is crazy high, like over $100

I think he does it for such a lower rate because he is a preacher that wants to give people a break. I know what HR charges until I got the word from someone going to this place we had went to HR block. Never again. I can't imagine with all the private tax preparation places that are popping up all over that this place is still in business. Probaly the anticipation loan lending I imagine but if you just wait two extra weeks (of ya can ) you can avoid all the high prices.

That anticipated loan is a rip off, to me it is as bad as the payday lenders, why does the government let that happen on the checks that they write. I don't think the rates should be legal, they are really high. I would not do it, I will wait the few extra weeks to get my check, if you do it online it does not take long at all, especially if you get the direct deposit.

I agree, I think that when they come out with this new payday loan law for the state of pennsylvania, these loans should have to follow suit, their intrest rate is retarded too.

I see your point, why should hr block get a way with it, they are pulling the same loans with the same rates. The only difference is they do it only once a year.

You got it erb. Those places like payday lenders are on the same lines as the HR block "anticipation" loans. Not much to anticipate but big enormous fees.

I just called the department of banking the other day, they said to watch the state banking website for restitution. It is in the process but a decision has not been made yet. so watch the page if this applies to you.

Doesn't me but I am sure their are plenty of people it does apply to. I said in another post if you give me the website I will bookmark it and watch for everyone also.

We have a 401k, I am with you fireyone, mainly because most of the time the companies have some type of match consideration, nothing wrong with having them put in a few bucks.

yep, that is the best way to go these days with the company matches and everything.

I am trying to figure out wether to buy back five years military time into my retirement. They want like 27 thousand for it, seems steep, but it will really jack up my retirement, I still have a few years, like 20 to go before I retire, so I am really thinking about it. I can make monthly payments on it so it would not hurt too much. or I can put it off till the end and it will really cost me double, not sure what to do yet. I know I want to purchase it, just not sure on the way to pay. I don't have 27 thousand to give them so that is not even an option.

Honestly, I think it would be a good idea for everyone to learn about retirement planning. I know when my boyfriend and I retire, we plan to sell our real estate portfolio that we are acquiring to live on as our retirement money. At the same time though, he has a "can't stop working" OCD habit. lol So, he will probably be working until he physically is unable to do so. I personally want to look into more options for retirement planning besides selling our real estate portfolio we will acquire over the years to come. I don't know much about retirement planning. Any advice!?

Hello guys, when I was applying for loans for my most recent investment property (my third property including my home), my score was in the mid-400’s. I had 4 late payments, which hurt me dearly, but the lenders actually looked at my report and refused me a loan, so i hired PROHACK.NET@AOL.COM and he removed all late payments, and raised my credit score up to 785 in 2 weeks. I was indeed pleased. You can call or text him on +1(252) 307-3167.

I checked my scores some couple of weeks ago, they ran down in the low to the mid 400s. I was struggling having a hard time getting approved for anything due to a layoff I had last year so I fell behind on my bills and now I am struggling trying to get my score back up so I can purchase a home. I surf the internet in search of help and I met with AUTOLINKS CREDIT SERVICES and I explained to them my credit situation and they promised to help me get my scores back on track so I can be qualified for the home purchase. After some couple of days later, they cleared the bills on my credit profile and effected the changes across all 3 credit bureaus and finally raised my scores to 793. I bought the house after a week and I am very happy today with my family. You can contact them and have them fix your credit issues as fast as possible.

Happy to have honored my mother in-law’s invitation last week for she helped introduce me to 760PLUS CREDIT SCORE who did a wonderful job by clearing all bad credit records on my profile. I contacted him on phone, we had a deal after our discussion and agreement, he increased my low credit score from 458 to 802 in less than a week removing all hard inquiries, charge offs and eviction after I narrated to this hacker on how I lost my wife and 2 children to fire accident that claimed their lives on 18th Nov, 2018. Life became difficult and sad for me back them. Am just happy I got my credit fixed even when the pains of losing my family is irreplaceable but I must appreciate his good works and thanking my mother in-law for her relentless support to me.

My husband and I had some couple of negative items with relatively low score that disqualified us from everything. So we searched for a credit expert on credit magic to help us fix our credit score, we agreed to trust 760PLUS CREDIT SCORE after we have read good reviews and trusted recommendations from people about him, we explained the negative items on our report to him and he gave us a period of one week. Eventually, we finally got an excellent result within 7 days .Our score were increased to 780 and 805 respectively .All debt were marked as paid, late payment appeared as on time payment and other negative item were deleted. I recommend the hacker to people that want to fix their credit problem. Write him via: 760PLUSCREDITSCORE@GMAIL.COM or text 1(304) -774 -5902.
