Quick 401k Rollover Question

New money is in a rollover IRA. The $4K is sitting on my desk in check form to my name. It sounds like this is an ambiguous situation - I'll just create a Roth IRA and deposit it there.

Quick 401k Rollover Question

It was a total of ~$17K, $13K of which was transferred over electronically, and $4K was via check, that is in my name. My understanding is that the $17K was pre-tax contributions, and the $4K was post-tax.

Quick 401k Rollover Question

Hi guys, Quick question for you all. I recently quit my job, and in the process rolled my 401k over to a third-party brokerage. My employer also sent me a check for a certain amount in addition to the rolled-over amount. Online, it's referred to as a "Nontaxable Credit Rollover." I know that...

Surface Pro 2 is incredible

I don't know how to totally articulate how I feel about it. I consider it more of a laptop-first, then a tablet. The weight is definitely not ideal. I'm coming from an iPad (original edition), which I then sold for an iPad Mini, so the size difference is definitely substantial. While I...

Surface Pro 2 is incredible

Pretty crazy story to report. I had pre-ordered a 64GB SP2 from Microsoft.com and got it on launch day. Have been loving it ever since; it really is a fantastic machine that has done well for me both at home and on the road. Yesterday, I woke up and went to turn on my SP2 from sleep...

I think they're mistaken, based on saying that the 64GB model doesn't come with the stylus. I have the 64GB model, and it certainly came with a stylus in the box - even though I lost it already.

Surface Pro 2 is incredible

I got the SP2 on launch day and I'm struggling with this as well. Chrome is a disaster on a high-res touchscreen, even with all the optimizations (turning off DPI scaling, enabling touch mode, zooming, etc.). But, I use Chrome on my Android device and work computer and love that it syncs between...

How many credit cards do you have?

Was just trying to emphasize how much money people leave on the table when it comes to spending money. Every time I see someone use a debit card at a register makes me cringe.

How many credit cards do you have?

I have 24 cards, and I'm 23. My credit score as of August 4th is 782. I've flown in first class for free to various locations, and stayed in 5* hotels for free. Thank you very much, Chase, Citi, and Amex!

MBA programs and accreditation

What was your GMAT score? If you're concerned about getting your money's worth...it probably won't make sense to go to a MBA program unless its top-20...maybe even top-15/10.

I'm in Boston. Where do I get good clam chowda?

I live 5 minutes from there...the food is awesome, but its popular among tourists and there is usually a wait. Every time I walk by there's a line out the door. Just FYI.

HTC 8X and Nokia 822 available for preorder from verizon Nov 9th

Is there an actual NEED to pre-order? Do VZW pre-orders, other than the iPhone, ever sell out? I'd like to see what companies like Amazon do for pricing versus paying the full $199.

Anyone know where CNN's +/- data below the screen is coming from? How big the sample size is, and what are the possible inputs (binary approve/disapproval, scale, etc)?
