I think the thing with affording plastic surgery is that you have to keep a stiff upper lip. Kevin Slater

My first blush is this all sounds very controlling. Not the kind of relaxed scene that works well with multiple providers. Just my opinion from the other side of the equation. Kevin Slater

Part of the deal has him staying on as spokesperson. Kevin Slater

You've also posted in another thread that you do the findom thing. Rather than test both ends of the spectrum, why not just pay for services rendered? Kevin Slater

May all your problems be so happy. Kevin Slater

Well played. Kevin Slater

Kevin Slater knows no such thing. Kevin Slater

...and by 6 am (East Coast) they're already flat to negative. Kevin Slater

Brent Crude. Seems like someone should have taken it already. Kevin Slater

My read is that it's less about losing the customer than losing the cash at this particular moment. SVB was simply a run on the bank. Kevin Slater

The NY Times reports today that 87% (I think it was) of all assets held at the bank were above the 250k insurance limit. Kevin Slater

Nah, it was even worse. Kevin Slater

Good luck with that. Kevin Slater

A rentmen user name is hardly a good identifier of a client-- it's easily changed. Any of the more useful identifiers (e.g. phone numbers) would violate the rules of this site. Personally, if someone starts repeating questions he's asked before, I tell him we'll need a deposit to keep the chat going. And I would never travel for a new client without a deposit. All that being said, if you still did want to discuss clients by rentmen user name, that may be a good question to ask in the Ask a Moderator forum. Kevin Slater

Depends where I am at the time. Kevin Slater

I feel attacked. Kevin Slater

Thanks for posting! An interesting read. Kevin Slater

I don't see anything on my end about hiding rates or not. Kevin Slater

Yup, we've said all that needs to be said here.

I don't love that answer at all. It's not hard to find out, and then to check if the mix is one you're comfortable with. If you feel that it's underperforming over a 20 year time span I would be curious if you're weighted too heavily in bonds. (My personal take, as I think you've said you're in your 40s, is any bonds are too many.) It'd be an easy matter to switch existing monies into more growth oriented funds and/or to redirect future contributions. Kevin Slater

Yup, my Lucid was up a whopping 88% at one point during the day. (It closed up a mere 43%.) Kinda wish I had held more than two shares. Kevin Slater

This thread is trending away from finances and investments. Let's pick up these other topics in the lounge.

Just bought that first tranche. Kevin Slater
