Plus, what should you prioritize when you're trying to save for a home while also preparing for retirement? Farnoosh answers listener questions about maintaining financial independence before marriage, evaluating a potential angel investment opportunity, choosing between a brokerage account and a traditional IRA, finding trustworthy financial advice, and building a down payment fund in a high-cost housing market. She also shares resources for managing healthcare costs and weighs in on whether married couples should file taxes jointly or separately Before the mailbag, Farnoosh breaks down the latest jobs report, explains why a strong labor market may keep the Federal Reserve on hold when it comes to interest rates, celebrates National Donut Day, and sounds off on a teen financial literacy competition that may be testing the wrong skills altogether. Listener questions include: How do we manage money fairly when one partner earns significantly more? Should we invest in a chef friend's new restaurant? Is it better to file taxes jointly or separately? How can I save for a house down payment faster? Should I open a traditional IRA or a brokerage account if I earn too much for a Roth IRA? How do I find a financial advisor I can trust? What resources can help consumers navigate healthcare costs? Learn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand.
