617-Friday Q&A: Giving Money to Poor People, Contributing My Salary to my Wife's 401(k), Protecting Investment Accounts, Buying Term Life Insurance while FI, etc!
1 hour 8 minutes Posted Jan 11, 2019 at 9:07 am.
How can I give nice gift to people who are poorer than I am without creating a power imbalance? 15:20 - Can I contribute my salary into a 401(k) plan for my wife in order to maximize our retirement account contributions? 28:05 - How can I protect my non-qualified investment accounts that are exposed to the claims of creditors? 44:30 - I don't "need" term life insurance because I'm financially independent. Should I still buy some? 51:00 - I'm following Dave Ramsey's baby steps and am almost out of debt; should I store up my emergency fund in a Roth IRA? 56:00 - I want to buy an investment that will pay for my new car instead of just burning all my cash on the car. How do I do that? (For the context of any time-relevant comments relating to current events, this Q&A was recorded on 12/19/2018.)
