After you go past a certain pay threshold, you can’t contribute directly to it. You have to contribute to an IRA and convert it to the Roth.

Ally is one of the highest paying savings accounts (currently 1%) that I know of. I recently opened a couple of accounts with Ally and have been happy so far.

Be sure you open the Roth before the pay bump, it makes some things easier on the setup

I guess my point was really that the GenXs are often overlooked and ignored.

Except the millienials didn’t follow the boomers or in reverse. There is a generation between them.

I’m a big fan of CrashPlan and actually have the family account for backups. I am curious why Carbonite wasn’t included in the comparison, just because it seems to be a well known name in the non techie crowd.

I saw a trick where you basically pull the end with pliers and keep twisting until the tie snaps off. It was smooth enough to not cut me.

I’ll agree, I’ve actually used both a leather belt and a velcro belt. The velcro belt was okay at first but then the velcro started to lose some of its grip and wouldn’t stay as tight as I liked. The leather never quit.

I was just curious on which way you were leaning on your statement. Honestly the later boomers don’t have as much of the Great Depression frugality as their parents did. Spending habits are definitely different as well, but I sometimes think that late Boomers and the Milennials are closer to spending habits than Xers.

That is a cool idea on the artwork notebook

In which way?

It is a nice idea, but I much prefer using the ability provided by my CC company that way I’m not trusting someone else.

Goals are a great way to keep up savings and or management of your money. If you put a hard number on your retirement and possibly start thinking about a date, then it becomes a real objective.

You probably can’t get it to 5% for more than an intro period of time, but there are some out there that are willing to give 7.99% on a fixed basis

The best camera is always the one that you have with you. If it is too big and you leave it at home all of the time it isn’t helping you get better.

Convection ovens help without having to rotate racks

Personally, I wish they would just roll Lens into the OneDrive app giving people the customization without the extra app
