Are prospective employers allowed to ask you how much you make? Do you have to tell them? How to avoid the topic without compromising the job offer?

In today’s Ask Farnoosh, special co-host Heather Horton joins. She is an avid listener and professional actor and comedian in Los Angeles at www.heatherho.com.

Farnoosh and Heather also tackle questions like: Do you think it’s worth opening a Roth if I will soon be making too much to contribute to it? Is it too late to start a 529 plan for high school age kids? Any advice on how to negotiate salary during a promotion?
