Id kill for a 69 mach 1 but wife would kill me.

I've got a 15 ltz with custom sport trim package and love it.

I don't have any 63-66, the 67-72s I keep. I just sold four 88-94 body trucks. They were all long bed though.

There is a guy I know around tightwad that always has a couple trucks for sale 63-66 seems to be his thing.

Ive done plenty of work for him in the past I'll see if I can find his number at the shop tomorrow and see what he's got. If i was going up that way tomorrow I would just stop there on my way by, but I'll definitely be that way next week

How can you put 25% into your 401K as the limit is 15%? :hmmm:

The limit isn't 15%. If I'm not mistaken, the limit is based on a contribution amount. I was told by Fidelity, who runs the 401k plan for the company I work for, that I couldn't contribute more than $18,000 per year. That works out to about 9% of my gross salary so I have 9% contributed to my 401k with a 100% employer match. Someone who makes less can obviously contribute at a higher percentage and someone over 50 years old can contribute more because there is a catch-up contribution clause.

Age accelerated?

Maybe he is talking 25% of AGI?

I'm so long removed from the 401k game, I don't remember the rules.

Lone Wolf had it right. 401(k) contribution limits aren't based on percentage of income, but rather flat amounts. $18,000 for <50 years old. $24,000 if you're 50+.

Yup. One of my pleasures in turning 50 was jacking that up.

You can only contribute a max of $18,000 of your money per year if under 50 and $24,000 if over 50. Percentage doesn't matter.

Yea I never go a full year at 25 so I have never hit that mark, just turned 50 a couple months ago so basically a 100k job can contrib 25% per year and be right at the max at 50 yrs old right?

HonestChieffan 06-29-2016 07:38 PM

Today was a good day. Better if you own LLY. But Im still afraid of the EU/Brit issue and Trump going goofy about trade negotiations. From a stock market perspective, he frightens me.
