Social security COLA for 2024 announced
GlenDale replied to Beancounter's topic in Personal Finance & Investing
Same for me; next year but at 66 2/3 -
His ad now says he’s 5’11” and 7”?????

Definitely difficult to keep straight but from a simple practical stand, if the best I’ll earn on these two bonds are less than 4% it was a bad investment choice considering the current state of CD rates. Today I opened a 25k cd at Forbright yielding 5.75%
-
Given, the variable changes but how does one determine the fixed rate?
-
Thanks. So the. 9.6% is not a constant for the life of the holding (6 month changes not withstanding)?

Wow, what a great thread to find here. maybe you guys can educate me on something. i bought a 10k bond, 7/1/22 and another 10k, 2/1/23 they have been logging interest at 3.38% and 3.79% respectively. how, when, why, does the reported 9.6% rate kick in?

That worked. Thank you

My pet peeve is: ”no problem” or “no worries” as a response to “thank you” big finger nails on blackboard. the proper response is: “you’re welcome” period, full-stop. Occasionally acceptable alternate responses: “my pleasure” or “please don’t mention it” when some grammatically incompetent twink says “no problem” my response is: “oh, good! I didn’t want to cause a problem” and watch them spin in the wind as their brains fry.

Your instructions don’t seem to work

Reminds me of a scene from “The World According to Garp”

I use it all the time and now, following the recent update, one need not say “hey siri” any longer

Latest scam? Middle aged closeted guys on Grindr.
GlenDale replied to TorontoDrew's topic in The Lounge
Another trend I’ve spotted: Message pops up, cute guy (often posed with a dog), message reads “hey” or “sup” simple response and they immediately say “pics” and disappear upon receipt. I guess they’re pic collectors mining for other scam profiles. anyone ever get a message from themself? I haven’t but heard of it happening. Similar to receiving a phone call from your own number. -

I was about to write about this myself. Always with Chinese names, always same or similar opening lines, always 7 miles away. many of the guys are drop dead gorgeous. I only wish they were real -
What are some of the ways?

I’m not surprised Dick’s is suffering. I would blame their very poor operating standards. I’ve shopped there for a long time and they’ve gotten worse exponentially of the years. Just ry to find a sales associate on the floor. Ha! as for all chains experiencing stock drops: I’d like to look at their balance sheets in a year. How much stock buy-backs are they doing now and what will that mean as the prices start rising again? Macys did this in a big way in the 90s to squeeze out investors.

I use bankrate.com to receive regular updates to new rates offered by various banks. I’ve moved a lot of money into various high interest CDs over the past 6 months.

Wow. He’s gorgeous
