    The tax rate is progressive, so I gave you the percentage of income that he's going to be paying taxes, not the tax rate. Only the top part would be taxed at anywhere near 35%, which is the point. That's the part he's going to save on taxes by putting money into retirement accounts. I also...

    The OP didn't mention kids and specifically said he didn't own a house. On top of it, even if he does own a house, in certain parts of the country, that wont even get him over the standard deduction. I have a house with a mortgage and I'm barely breaking the standard deduction. In fact, I'm...

    That's not always true. If you're in a higher tax bracket now than you will be after you retire (pretty likely since you wont have regular income) then you'll come out ahead.

    That game showed how bad the Hawks miss Kane on the power play. He normally is the one that handles entries into the zone and without him they kept getting stopped or having to dump and chase.

    TurboTax Halts State Returns

    I live in Nevada now so I don't have to do state taxes anymore, but when I used to live in Illinois, I would just have Turbotax do the state version, print the draft, then go on the Illinois website and input the numbers.

    Investment - How should I do this?

    If you're going to use that money to pay off a credit card bill in the next year, you should leave it liquid. You really shouldn't invest in the stock market with money you have earmarked for something unless you have a longer time horizon (3-4 years minimum). The reason is if the market dips...

    Suits

    It's not that they're saying god damn. It's more that every character uses it when they swear. "I won't god damn do it" "Don't you god damn mess with me". In the last few episodes of the season, I heard Harvey, Jessica and Louis all say it.

    You can also take the carcass and throw it in a pot with water and whatever leftover veggies you have to make stock with the bones and random meat.

    Investing

    The question you should be asking is, "Do you think your tax rate will be higher in retirement than it is now?" If so, then convert it, if not, don't. For most people the answer is no, however, it doesn't hurt to have a ROTH and a traditional IRA/401k to help balance out your taxes in...
