  1. I think most brokerages don't charge commissions on trades anymore. Certainly Fidelity and Schwab don't. While Robinhood technically doesn't charge a fee for trading stocks or crypto, they make it up in a larger spread. No free lunch. Kevin Slater
  2. Or, given the tone of this thread, not. That may be the smarter route. Kevin Slater
  3. There could still be a scam, not centering around bilking Zelle. The transfer provides him with your name, for example. Kevin Slater
  4. You can always test with $1 first and have him acknowledge receipt before sending more. Kevin Slater
  5. Huh. Daddy always told me penises make the dollars. Kevin Slater
  6. Get you, Nancy Drew! Kevin Slater
  7. Not obvious at all. Personally, V gets me up and C keeps me up. Kevin Slater
  8. What's wrong with nude? Is nude an option? Kevin Slater
  9. Mind you, it tastes like shit. Cialis, however, is delicious. Kevin Slater
  10. A large portion of my Fidelity accounts is a ETFs, and these days I'm all about avoiding expenses. To that extent, I wanted to share that today I discovered there's a cheaper alternative to QQQ (the Nasdaq 100 ETF). QQQM is operated by the same firm with an expense ration of .15% v .2% for QQQ. Apparently it's slightly less liquid given its smaller size, but for buy-and-hold investors the fee savings should be worth it. https://www.thestreet.com/etffocus/trade-ideas/this-etf-is-making-qqq-irrelevant Kevin Slater
  11. You can chew any Viagra to hasten the effect. Kevin Slater
  12. Absolutely. The fact that you had to insist sends an even bigger warning sign. He should have realized that he was putting you in an awkward spot and immediately backed down. The gender deferential isn't the driving factor here, but that he was deaf to that concerns me. No one should be offended that you prioritize your safety, and if they are, good riddance to them. Don't hesitate to stand your (public) ground. Kevin Slater
  13. Or maybe he just got his wires crossed. He intended to block that jerk who texted him 47 times while he was massaging you. Kevin Slater
  14. There was was a man from Bumchucket... Kevin Slater
  15. The WSJ reports that based on today's CPI numbers, I-bonds purchased from May through October 2022 will pay 9.6% interest (up from the current already generous 7.12%). One can purchase up to $10k via TreasuryDirect.gov, plus up to an additional $5k if she chooses to receive a tax refund in the form of a paper I-bond. Kevin Slater
  16. ...and all the children are above average. Kevin Slater
  17. I'm not sure, but that we even have to ask is another reason why I'm eager to get these conversations off their platform and onto texting (or some other medium I control). Kevin Slater
  18. Leave his muff out of this. Kevin Slater
  19. In a sharp voice "No women were involved?!". Who you callin' a hoe? Who you callin' a homo? Kevin Slater
  20. Loss aversion is a very real thing, most people fear more losing what they have than not making what they could. Kevin Slater
  21. One could argue that you should take some money off the table if you're eight years away from retirement; the traditional models would have you move more into bonds at that stage. Add your fears of a recession, and it sounds like the move might help you sleep at night. I've seen a few articles suggesting that the market doesn't fare particularly poorly during recessions, if that matters to you. Personally, I've never been anything but 100% aggressive. I've certainly taken hits, but from higher positions than I would have been otherwise, so where I land is still ahead of the game. Kevin Slater
  22. Yeah, don't know that I'm a fan of using off-brand tax prep solutions. Kevin Slater
  23. (btw, you mean to post this in either the spa if he's a masseur or the deli if he's an escort.) Kevin Slater qua admin
