He confidently said nope before telling me that he was on "the ten year plan".

There's value on seeing that too, especially when it's him seeing crazy and irrational takes.I mean that's probably true for a lot of people here (unless they have taken the steps of removing those friends/relatives from their social media profiles, or removing themselves from social media entirely). We all have those contacts who have treaded further and further right, and we know primarily what motivates them. For most of my family and friends, it's a fear and disdain for blacks, Muslims, and immigrants from third world countries. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

It kind of is when you consider that that is literally the dominant train of thought in America still.That's why I think Corrik brings value to this topic despite almost never chatting with him personally. He probably has the most uniquely 'murrican mindset of anyone here. What's more American than spending a good chunk of the past year on unemployment while arguing vehemently *against* raising the breadcrumb wages of those beneath you? --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

CaptainOfCrush 02/05/21 2:12:49 PM #328 | Forceful_Dragon posted... Yes, raising the minimum wage will affect the economy in a variety of ways, and some companies may raise some prices by a certain amount. But the most significant initial benefit will be that people earning minimum wage will now have to struggle less to afford food and shelter.Thank you for living in the real world. Of course raising the min wage will have long-reaching affects, including making *some* wealthy people slightly less wealthy, but the most significant effect will be, as you said, helping people who really need help. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

CaptainOfCrush 02/05/21 2:04:05 PM #321 | Driving out business owners who can only sustain their business on slave wages is a good thing indeed. Protip: most of those small businesses WON'T go out of business. The business owners will begrudgingly accept net income of 430k versus the net income of 470k they had the year prior, despite the loud obnoxious stink they'll raise. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

CaptainOfCrush 02/05/21 10:56:00 AM #269 | At this point we have thousands of generations of human history to irrefutably prove that the poor get fucked harder and harder without a strong and MANDATED (ie: governmental) safety net in place to keep them from literally starving to death. An increase in minimum wage at least in line with inflation (and we haven't even done that) is one way to strengthen that safety net, or at least keep it patched together. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

CaptainOfCrush 02/05/21 8:55:55 AM #246 | Correct me if I'm wrong, but apparently the Senate just passed the Covid budget resolution that'll allow them to bypass the filibuster when voting for the actual bill... but that vote on the actual bill won't take place until after the impeachment trial. The trial is important, but it's not have superceded $1400 checks and the expansion of unemployment. This seems like Dems just prioritized things terribly. =/ --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

I'm probably holding until 0 now, which is where LKNCY will likely end up. I'm also unsure what Chapter 15 is, but my hunch is that they want legal protection from US investors so the Chinese owners can run off with whatever value/assets the company actually has. =/ --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

Imagine if we taught teenagers in school about this stuff so that I'm not having to ask my friends on a video game popularity contest msg board to teach me about it.It's a noble concept but honestly one I've never agreed with. If 16-year-olds don't care about biology or the French Revolution with all the beheadings, they're REALLY not gonna care about retirement planning and tax accounting lol Like, before they can even understand what an IRA truly is, they'll need some rudimentary knowledge of taxes, interest, time value of money - I think it just needs a more experienced person to understand those concepts and the effort would be wasted on high schoolers. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

So it's fair to say then, that even if I can't hit that max cap, investing even SOME money in an IRA is better than having it sit in a checking account doing nothing?100% GANON1025 posted... Does tax filing get more complicated with an IRA?Hardly. You'll likely get a deduction for traditional IRA contributions, but that's easy to do even if you're self-preparing. There won't be any tax changes with a Roth IRA since you don't get a deduction on the contribution. And ExTha, you are NOT too old to contribute to an IRA. People do it into their 50s all the time. Hell, I think you can legally contribute until age 70. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
