    Park Hopper ?

    Would the cost just be pro-rated? We will be there soon and staying for 9 nights....how does it work if we wanted to upgrade to PH for maybe the last 3-4 days?

    Best Disney Pixie Dust You've Ever Received??

    We've only been to Disney once in the recent past (Oct 2017) and it was my DS first trip, he was almost 4. We had two moments of pixie dust and, while not big things, definitely made our trip wonderful! The first moment was our first time at MK and it was the MNSSHP and DS got picked by Judy...

    FYI, Dell is 17% back on Topcashback! Takes forever to cashout from them though. I used 10% AMEX offer in November plus 20% back from TCB. The 20% from TCB just became payable a couple days ago.

    I would agree. I would love to have 1/2 the support clicks you got LOL. I will never turn down money/equivalent just because of taxes...unless tax rates are 100% you always come out ahead (unless you disagree with valuations but that's another story). Same as my advice to my clients about saving...

    Only dollars in the next tax bracket are subject to the next tax rate. So if $0-$10,000 is taxed at 10% and $10,001-$15,000 is taxed at 15%, and your income is $11,000, only $1,000 is taxed at 15%. Your tax is $1,150 (10%x$10000 + 15%x$1000).

    I'm behind so sorry if already concluded on. Definitely not self employment income. If it is reported in box 3 Other Income, it can be reported as non SE and could be compared to a prize or award.. if in box 5 Nonemployee Compensation then it is almost always SE income unless the issuer made an...

    Has anyone used the DirecTV Chase offer of $40 back? It says for new approved customers only, but wondering if paying monthly bill will trigger it?

    This would be useful to me too....just got a CIC and trying to remember ways to trigger 5X purchases (Gyft via PayPal I believe?). I've moved on from CIP but found myself looking for opportunities there too.

    Just checked CK and my score for Equifax is......not where I want it to be. I am showing 11 inquiries and only 4 will drop off by the END of this year. 2 of the 11 relate to a refi of our mortgage, 3 relate to auto purchase (all dated same day), and 1 relates to bank account opened for a...

    Still catching up... don't think it is lost cause to enter itemized deductions even if you cant surpass federal standard deduction. You can still benefit for state if you live somewhere with income tax

    It is a CPA touted strategy for what it's worth! We went over it numerous times in our tax training over the past year.

    I'm behind....like SO behind. But I want to jump into this part of the conversation because I have expertise for once! I'm entering my 11th tax season and I can count on one hand the times I've seen separate be advantageous over filing together (if legally married and you have the option to...

    Just got an awesome surprise! I attempted to use AT&T $200 off $200 back in November. Chatted about not receiving the credit - no dice, said it didn't qualify. Ok crap I tried. Imagine my surprise when I login to AMEX hoping to see a great offer maybe and I have a $200 credit on my account!.:D:D

    @castoral Pensacola Beach is so beautiful. Not sure if you are wanting to use points or not but some ideas for there: there is a Springhill Suites, a Hilton and a Hampton, and Holiday Inn and HIE. I have seen on UR portal (in addition to those already mentioned): Portofino resort, Beach Club...
