Validation rule date cannot be after Today

Hi All,

I have a simple Val rule that I can't get working...

Cut_Off_INTERNAL_USE_ONLY__c is a formula field created from CreatedDate, gets the 4th day of next month. I need users to not be able to edit after this date... 
  
AND( 
TODAY() > Cut_Off_INTERNAL_USE_ONLY__c, 
ISCHANGED( TR1__Salary__c ),
ISCHANGED( TR1__Fee_Percentage__c ),
ISCHANGED( Extras_Amount__c ),
$Profile.Name != "System Administrator (Finance)", 
$Profile.Name != "Cobalt Finance", 
$Profile.Name != "Talent Rover Administrator", 
$Profile.Name != "UK Manager Backbone" 
)

Appreciate any help! :)

Hi Steven, thank you for your comment - would you mind explaining why I need to add the OR's? 
Steven NsubugaSteven Nsubuga
The first OR indicates that if any of TR1__Salary__c, TR1__Fee_Percentage__c  and Extras_Amount__c  changes, 
the second OR indicates that if the user's profile is not any one of System Administrator (Finance), Cobalt Finance, Talent Rover Administrator and UK Manager Backbone,

Hi Steven,

I don't understand why it shouldn't work in one AND though - all must be true. 

Anyway, thank you very much, it works! :)
