Negotiated my rent flat for the third straight year so I’m doing my part to bring down shelter CPI

Realizing this probably means I was overpaying by 10% in 2022

 

interesting how it corresponds with Brexit.

 

just got the first quarter update. our investment made 250k after paying debt. so glad i'm going to be forced to roll this into a reit with 27 other properties, the majority of which are losing money every day.

Can you give me a 3 sentence summary

 

No

 

i'm reading this and it seems like they probably should not have formed this reit to 1) repay themselves a bunch of partnership loans and 2) take a fee on the reit it self

 

can you explain what this means, for a good friend of mine

 

Next steps are up to you but books and records request may make sense

 

Indeed. The valuations during the dot com bubble were straight silly season and based on fairy tales.

 

Just checked a 401K from an employer 10+ years ago and it's only had a cumulative 12.54% return from 2/28/21 through today. That seems not good...

 

My fund choices with majority bonds in the last 3 years have had a negative return.

 

That seems like way too many funds

 

I agree. I believe it was in a target date fund but I don't know why it's spread so broadly

 

I legitimately think thats more funds than my 401k even offers. Sheesh.

 

Buffalo Small Cap Fund has a sweet 0.99% ER lol

 

CRWD up 27% after the bell to save the day

 

I had been sitting on a good chunk of cash from a transaction that didn't go through properly. I dumped the majority back in today so expect the market to crash any day now. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up.

 

Time is on your side.

 

thank you I will sell my entire 401k now

 

I have an employer 401k that I want to move from TRowe price into a IRA somewhere else. What are the top three options and why?

I bank with Morgan Stanley so was initially considering E-Trade.

 

Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab

 

Fidelity’s customer service is outstanding and their app(s) are user friendly. Like the company a lot

 

I have most of my stuff with Fidelity too, but man I hate their new mobile app. Balances are cached and don't update without a re-login, and making a trade is like 6-8 screen clicks that revert back to screen #1 if you switch to another app to check something and switch back before finally submitting.
**Edit, I switched it to "classic experience" and then back and that forced some update that is a bit better design.

 

Have Schwab for Roth IRA and brokerage. Fidelity for HSA. Prefer Schwab.

 

Let there be blood.

 

I second Fidelity's customer service, it's first class. Their app, not so much. Still, their customer service is good, and it'll keep me with them.

 

I am in the same boat. Once you move this how to you plan to start funding it? Can you do it with pre-tax dollars?

 

Man the politicians are good

 

What a coincidence

 

Weird how these coincidences repeatedly happen.

 

Anyone have experience with Fidelity's BrokerageLink? How do you like it, and how do the fees work? I didn't make sense of it reading through the brochure.

 

missed opportunities

 

It's fine for me through my 401k. My plan has no fees.

 

The oracle of Auburn does it again

 

Not sure where else to put this

 

The revolution has begun!

 

So many people are going to go upside down on the DWAC/DJT stock.

WSB is making money on options, but those gullible people buying up the stock are going to lose everything.

 

Deserved outcome if we’re being honest.

 

I hope it ruins them

 

Would nice to know the strike price some puts

 

Lol I already started looking up post November puts

 

Yeah should look rough in the next few days

 

The cost to buy some puts (on DJT) is fucking nuts. It’s clear the market thinks it’s going take a nose dive at some point soon.
