We had every intention of buying a new (used) car last month, but given the insane prices in the used car market my husband insisted we wait until prices are reasonable again. It'll be a tight squeeze in our tiny Honda Fit after baby comes next month, but he's the one who is uncomfortable with a car seat behind his seat, so if he decides it's not worth the $$ for a different car, okay by me.
So I went ahead and threw enough into his Roth to max it out for the year last month (ahead of schedule).
Also filed my local taxes in the city where my old office is - I had been planning to owe ~1k but after speaking to a tax professional determined I don't actually owe $$ since I haven't been there since March of last year. It's not my company HQ, as I typically sit on site with one of our customers, so local tax isn't deducted from my pay or anything like that. I'm still WFH due to Covid, plus I'll be out for 12 weeks later this year on mat leave, plus my job has shifted so I probably won't be going on site much AFTER mat leave either ... so I don't really feel like I should owe the local tax anyway. I'm not doing any business there. |
