Personal finance pros! When’s the moment to graduate from online tax filers to hire an accountant to do your taxes instead? Are there any key milestones that should elicit this pivot? ✉️ My DMs are open, or you can email me: Isabel at morningbrew dot com

Me Taxpayer. You Spouse. New from me on the persistence of men putting their names first on joint tax returns: wsj.com/articles/youre-my-no…
Who Goes First on Your Joint Tax Return? Probably Not the Woman.

Who Goes First on Your Joint Tax Return? Probably Not the Woman.

The IRS doesn’t care, so why do most people put the man first on the 1040? Even Kamala Harris goes second to the second gentleman.

I got my first cell phone 18 years ago today. It was a Motorola V180, and I replaced the front and back panels with sparkly ones you buy at a mall kiosk.

The two key limits on this provision are a $35,000 per-beneficiary lifetime rollover cap and a requirement that the 529 plan had to be in effect for at least 15 years. Aimed at preventing quick transfers and creating a cap on benefits for high-income people.

Another new provision that we hadn't seen before (a Richard Burr project) allows (with limits) rollovers from 529 to Roth IRAs. Idea is that unused college savings can turn into retirement head start.

Can someone explain how the Robinhood 1% IRA match works when IRA contributions have to be earned income?

Mkay so here’s the (odd…) answer: Robinhood’s FAQ says the 1% counts as interest income and doesn’t count toward the annual contribution limit. Guaranteed 1% income with no restrictions on how you invest the IRA funds … seems weird to me!

But that’s just Robinhood saying it’s “interest income.” What they’re describing sounds super similar to an employer 401(k) //contribution//, which is not treated as interest income and is often on individual contributions. 🧐
I went from a top 0.05% Nicki Minaj listener in 2021 to top 0.5% in 2022 😭 #SpotifyWrapped
