   Solo 401k is underrrated for exactly this reasonb. The employee contribution limit alone is $23,500 in 2026 before you even add the employer side, versus SEP-IRA which caps at 25 % of net income. For someone with moderate self-employment income the Solo 401k can get you way more MAG I reduction. The one thoing that trips people up is the Solo 401k has to be opened before December 31 of the tax year, whereas SEP-IRA you may open and fund allthe way until the filing deadline. So if someone is reading this in Q4 and doesn't have one yet, that's th timing to be aware of.... $45k contribution bringing you to low 40s MAGI is a great outcome. Did you do traditiona contributions only or mix in some Roth???

   Hand carry hotshot is gonna cost you the same as flying home for it yourself, minus the jetlag Sunday is a regular working day in much of the middle east. If you can get it shipped out Friday, there's a chance. I've expressed stuff across USA in a day, but that's without customs - your paperwork has to be flawless. Tell the employer to ship to depot for pickup, say you'll be out and your porch isn't safe. Have someone go to the depot once it lands and pay whatever money is needed to ship it back out as fast as possible. Every carrier offers some form of "critical" next available flight service, though I'm not sure how they handle customs. I'd probably go DHL or UPS.

   1. Lie 2. No, you can also lie 3. Very hard. It's easier to just lie. I am also based in Germany and I just lie to my employer. I have VPN server setup at my flat in Germany and all my Internet traffick goes through it. It has been 4 years and nobody ever noticed. About tax residency Germany won't complain about you wanting to pay taxes to them. I keep Anmelden in Germany and keep pay taxes there.

   Cool bro, I made $183,000 last year and over $200,000 this year. Have spent the last 6 years working remotely and traveling. Worked from a $250 a night Airbnb in Longyearbyen this week and last. Am I not disclosing my location to my employer? Yes. Am I paying US taxes? Also yes. Am I lying to immigration? Not really, my business in their country is tourism. Do I give a fuck about what some loser gatekeeper like you thinks? No, as you have no idea about who I am. How much do you make out of curiosity?

   Oh yeah. I’ve dealt with it. I am retired and under 65 so I don’t get Medicare. I live off a cash account I pull from monthly but I have cap gains due to trades and this year had to trade out of many assets and had some huge cap gains a which put me over the $62.6k threshold last month. Once that happened I had to adjust my marketplace income from $62k to $85k. This was all cap gains from a taxable brokerage account and not W-2. And since I’m retired I don’t really put money back into a IRA or Roth and my max would only be $7k. So it doesn’t help me much. The MAGI jumped my premium from $20/mo to $750/mo. The kicker here is I pay the $750/mo to the insurance company but I owe the feds the back payment(Jan-July) on April15. As they adjust the tax form. 1095-A I think. Then you owe the back payment. I cancelled my insurance for the remainder of 2026. And I’ll just pay the fine on my taxes for the back months retro. This happened last year to but later in the year which sucked too as I owed 10mo vs 7mo of the increased rate. I have not figured out a way to limit my cap gains as I have a system I employ with trading that has been super beneficial to my net worth to survive. I have no clue if it will last or not. But why risk it. $750/mo with a $12k deductible seems worthless to me. $21k payout before any benefit annually seems just wealth extraction to me. So opt to pay out of pocket. If I can stay below $62.6k then great but I don’t see it happening any time soon. I rather grow my stash then stay below that number and not give anything back to the insurance thieves. I’m not sure I can put $7k into each IRA. I think it’s one only. Plus the HSA under the PPO plan but it still doesn’t get me the deduction to MAGI I need to get under the $62.6k. I don’t think this matters anyway. As the system is broken, corrupt and built for the wealthy or the employees but still isn’t fair to the employers. Healthcare is the biggest scam in the US. The next is the mortgage industry.
