I figured it out and each year I lose about $30 interest while waiting on the landlord to cash the check. [00:17] DaemonFC So now it really doesn't matter when he cashes it because the longer he waits, the more interest I earn. [00:17] DaemonFC Assuming rates don't dive. [00:18] DaemonFC The reason I never bothered with this is that at last year's rates it hardly mattered. [00:18] DaemonFC It was like $6 maybe. [00:18] DaemonFC I expect interest rates to be high for at least a couple of years. [00:19] DaemonFC The Fed might slow down but I don't think they can stop. [00:19] DaemonFC They're really torn over what to do about this. On one hand they don't want to expose the "rot in the floorboard". So they have to keep interest rates low enough that the banks don't visibly collapse. [00:19] DaemonFC On the other side, they don't want hyperinflation. [00:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

[00:21] DaemonFC I mean, it is what I would do. It's the only thing you can do considering that the Fed only really has a couple of tools and Congress is full of crooks and idiots who want to keep coming back to their district boasting of all the wasteful spending. [00:22] DaemonFC The Democrats may as well agree to Kevin McCarthy's plan, much like it is. [00:23] DaemonFC It will end up like the Budget Control Act in 2011 or the "emergency deficit law" in the mid 80s, or the one in 97 under Clinton. [00:23] TR News The early days of Linux https://lwn.net/Articles/928581/ [00:23] DaemonFC I mean, they keep passing laws where it's like "This is it. We mean it this time!" and then the next year they're in there voting to ignore it "just for this year. [00:24] DaemonFC I mean, the 1997 law "controls the growth of Medicare payments" and they've voted to ignore it 24 times. [00:24] TR News "He was in a "Raspberry Pi phase" a year or so later and thought he could use that device to help in the search. He put up a block diagram of the Raspberry-Pi-based camera system that he built" https://lwn.net/Articles/928691/ [00:24] DaemonFC Because the thing is, you can say you passed a law that controls Medicare spending, but you can't make doctors take Medicare. [00:25] DaemonFC And if they don't take Medicare, old people that vote are not going to be happy. [00:25] TR News Seeking an acceptable unaccepted memory policy https://lwn.net/Articles/928328/ [00:26] DaemonFC You can pass a law that says anything, but can you live with it? [00:26] DaemonFC And that answer when it comes to the deficit is always no. [00:27] DaemonFC So McCarthy knows that if they pass it this year they'll vote to "delay it" next year. [00:27] DaemonFC It's like writing down a household budget that balances out and then each month you make exceptions and the whole thing becomes pointless while you owe the banks more and more money.

[01:37] DaemonFC If I cut Mandy's pre-tax income by dumping $1,000 into a 401(k), it cuts $500 off mine too. [01:38] DaemonFC So we save $150 directly in federal tax that year and $74.25 to STATE OF ILL. [01:38] DaemonFC Even though our marginal rate is 10%, it cuts 15% of the top-line deduction in tax. [01:39] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2], Since it's a joint return, even though I would normally be prohibited from contributing to a Traditional IRA, I could open an account in my name. [01:39] DaemonFC Stuff it full of CDs. [01:40] DaemonFC Deduct it on top of the line. [01:40] DaemonFC I wonder what GULAG's opinion of the IRA is. [01:40] DaemonFC Traditional or Roth, that is. [01:40] DaemonFC I'm guessing he's on the Roth IRA side of the fence. :) [01:41] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2], Is it scary I have to explain the difference in tax treatment on retirement accounts to my mother?

You also cut a $400 pair of eyeglasses down to $100, and each of us gets one per year. [01:43] DaemonFC But even if it was just the exams and using VSP online somewhere, you come out ahead. [01:43] DaemonFC Because the $142 in Employee+Spouse premiums are another top of the line deduction. They come out of pretax dollars.

[05:30] DaemonFC It's impossible to figure everything out but it looks like the absolute high end of the estimate for AGI assuming that it takes more than the current payroll cycle for the 401(k) change to kick in is a couple hundred in AGI under the threshold for the credit. [05:30] DaemonFC If I have to make some minor adjustments, I could break all my CDs and put them into Checking where they won't earn any interest. [05:30] DaemonFC Since it's not earned interest at that point, it's not taxable income. [05:31] DaemonFC This is turning into a limbo to see how I can shave $1,000 off our tax bill. [05:31] DaemonFC I'd rather let the bank keep a little money than send in $1,000 more to the IRS. [05:32] DaemonFC I'll just keep ratcheting up Mandy's 401(k) as high as it needs to go to avoid paying them that extra $1,000. [05:32] DaemonFC He could be working for another 30 years.

[16:08] t0talist well, i rolled-back to BSD-style pty even, insteads of *nix98 pty ;) [16:08] t0talist i don't trust the TTY-code inside linux kernel [16:09] matteobin What are BSD-style pty? [16:09] t0talist matteobin: man tty [16:09] t0talist difference is, the old BSD-style pty are administered differently, with different naming scheme, and static ownership/permission [16:10] t0talist which i prefer to handle myself, instead of trusting linux-kernel doing it [16:10] matteobin But they look like the Linux tty? [16:10] t0talist matteobin: typo, $ man pty ; explains it [16:10] matteobin The ones available with CTRL+ALT+{NUM} [16:10] matteobin Sorry [16:11] t0talist with ctrl+alt+num you can switch real tty [16:11] t0talist with a terminal multiplexer, you do need pseudo terminals [16:11] matteobin Got it, once I've used tmux [16:12] t0talist tmux is rather good, although i prefer dvtm, because the latter is smaller in size [16:12] t0talist and easier to hack on [16:12] t0talist such as sixel-passthrough support, BSD-style pseudo-terminal handling support... that's two minor patches [16:12] matteobin How do you print?

[19:53] DaemonFC The Fed raised rates fast and hard already, and others took a 16% loss in this fund vs. its heights last year. [19:53] DaemonFC If companies or individuals file bankruptcy, bondholders get paid what the bankruptcy court can raise while the shareholders usually get a few cents if anything at all. [19:54] DaemonFC If companies start losing profits and declaring that and it scares the stockholders away, and the shares crash, the company still owes its debts. [19:55] DaemonFC So there's more upside in bonds right now, I think. [19:56] DaemonFC I see it as taking money off the table. [19:56] DaemonFC If the stock market crashes, I may reverse course and buy in at a cheaper price. [19:56] DaemonFC They tell you to stay the course no matter what's going on, but I've never made any serious money doing that. [19:57] DaemonFC The years where you get 15-20% returns on your funds are the ones where you see what's going on in the markets. [19:58] DaemonFC I think our landlord sees us as a known factor. He's been renewing our lease at relatively favorable terms compared to the other options. [19:59] DaemonFC That makes him smarter than some I've dealt with. [19:59] DaemonFC They create a lot of work for themselves with turnover by getting greedy, pushing out paying tenants, and then they don't know what they have. [19:59] DaemonFC I've kept a look at Joy's apartments in Chicago and she never keeps tenants more than a year or two. ● Apr 21 [20:00] DaemonFC Nobody can stand her. They sign a lease going oh this is a good price and then she ups it 40% on them next year. [20:01] DaemonFC Joy was telling me what a hard time she had renting to Loyola University students. [20:02] DaemonFC Because "They all get student loans but they have no income so I can't rent to them." [20:02] DaemonFC I was thinking "You own the building. You can rent it to whoever you want. Make them put up the deposit and the entire rent due on the lease if they can afford it and then you have their money."

[20:10] DaemonFC If they have to start slashing though, imagine those returns on the bond fund I just bought. [20:10] DaemonFC Rates collapse to zero again because the stock market falls over.

[20:37] DaemonFC Your goal is to preserve what you've earned, not gamble. [20:38] DaemonFC Generally shit falls over when you get greedy. [20:39] DaemonFC The major feature of a 401(k) in a time of low market returns is the employer match and whatever tax benefits it reaps that year. [20:39] DaemonFC In other words, you may not really earn much of anything that year, but at least your taxes will be lower. [20:39] DaemonFC The goal of a pretax fund is to optimize your level of taxation throughout your life. [20:40] DaemonFC Instead of having a lot of working years with a high tax bill, you can shove money into this account and get your taxes down. [20:40] DaemonFC Then when you retire, you draw it back out again in a staggered fashion, again to avoid high tax bills. [20:40] DaemonFC You have between age 59.5 and 72.5 before you must take MINIMUM distributions. [20:41] DaemonFC So if you retire at 66 or 67, you still have several years to stage withdrawals out to make sure you don't end up in higher tax brackets.

[20:47] DaemonFC Unless you just have SO MUCH money that it's impossible to need that amount for the duration.

The Economy, the IRS and Bond, AGG Bond. | BaronHK's Rants [21:51] DaemonFC So I can dump this all back out when Mandy turns 59.5 in early 2045. [21:51] DaemonFC Without paying the IRS any penalties. [21:52] DaemonFC So the 2045 tax year would be the year to start pulling a "Shawshank Redemption" on the 401(k). [21:52] DaemonFC You slip it all out a little at a time so you can stay at the lowest bracket each year. [21:53] DaemonFC But it all goes into your bank accounts where you can put it in CDs or something. [21:53] DaemonFC Then I have 12 years to finish doing that, and the IRS can't ever make him take RMDs and tax any of it at a higher rate. [21:54] DaemonFC The other option would be to buy a retirement annuity with it. [21:54] DaemonFC Which I'd seriously consider. [21:55] DaemonFC It guarantees that you get a certain amount deposited each month for the rest of your life, and you can add-on (for an additional expense) either a balloon payment to your spouse or a stipulation that your spouse inherits the annuity and it pays them until they die. [21:56] DaemonFC 401(k) accounts are also "untouchable" to a bankruptcy trustee if you end up going bust. [21:56] DaemonFC So the more money you have in one, I mean, it's off limits. [21:57] DaemonFC The Bankruptcy statute isn't trying to drain people's retirement accounts because that would create a big damn problem for the government later. [21:58] DaemonFC Mom's bankruptcy attorney said no they can't touch it but it doesn't look good if you file bankruptcy and you had a lot of money coming out of your paycheck going into the 401(k) in the months leading up to it. [21:59] DaemonFC If you're going bust and all of a sudden you start throwing half your paycheck in the 401(k), the Trustee is going to be angry. [21:59] DaemonFC That's considered "abusive" because you're, at that point, asking the court to wipe out your debts after making it obvious that you're trying to stash money away from the bankruptcy estate. ● Apr 21 [22:01] DaemonFC If you take it down to the level your employer will match, you'd have an argument that you're just trying to save a modest amount and get the match and you weren't trying to shove half your paycheck in there so nobody could get any money out of your estate. [22:02] DaemonFC There's a case to be made for maxing out a 401(k), if you can afford to. For most workers, I think the IRS allows something like $20,000 a year. [22:02] DaemonFC If you're pulling in $100,000 you have no excuse to not put $20,000 into a 401(k). [22:03] DaemonFC If you make under $50,000 then you should put in a minimum of the maximum your employer will match and whatever else you can. [22:04] DaemonFC You should build up a savings of at least 6 months expenses and then invest in your 401(k) before you invest in anything else outside of it. [22:04] DaemonFC I think it's good that more states are mandating 401(k) accounts with an employer match and auto-sign ups.

[22:06] DaemonFC They'll confiscate your funds to solve their problems later. I guarantee it. [22:06] DaemonFC That's why they're passing these laws. [22:07] DaemonFC Because they'll move money from the younger workers in the private sector who don't even understand what's going on into the unfunded pensions for state employees, and they'll pay them and then say you don't get anything and they're the government so you can't do anything to them.

[22:11] DaemonFC But I don't think further hikes are sustainable and the Fund will eventually retire all these bonds that other investors already lost money on. [22:11] DaemonFC And they will buy new ones locking in that higher interest for long durations. [22:12] DaemonFC If other people realized the loss during the panic sell, why shouldn't I buy? [22:14] DaemonFC The fund has $88.151 billion in assets. The Walmart Fund has less obviously. [22:14] DaemonFC The terrific news is that the Walmart fund that replicates this fund actually lost more. [22:14] DaemonFC About 16% over the last year. [22:14] DaemonFC I think we're undervalued now. [22:14] DaemonFC I'd rather buy into something that has a substantial upside. [22:15] DaemonFC The return on the bonds themselves are tepid right now, but the value of the fund will right-size and end up about where it was last year again. [22:15] DaemonFC So I can either wait for this or a stock market crash. [22:19] DaemonFC This is the first time since 2003 (fund inception) where I think there's been a significant dip in the index price, to warrant buying in just because of the dip.
