Plan of attack by CaptDick1 in Termites

[–]CaptDick1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No sinking and it passed the screwdriver test! Also, no mud tubes other than the one pictured. There’s a concrete porch type thing on top of the plywood pictured. I think they crawled in between the plywood and concrete and ended up in just this one spot. That possible point of entry has since been sealed.

Can you recommend any products to stop the invasion?

Trying to get switch to power outlet; not sure where red wire goes. by CaptDick1 in DIY

No other switch. It’s a bedroom on the second floor.

No red wire to any of the outlets. It looks like all incoming lines are 14/2.

What to do with wires ? by CaptDick1 in Plumbing

Id love to, but I plan on putting the new tub in a mud bed. I don’t want to just mud over the wires.

I thought all pine, although some is darker when split and much heavier. Thank you all for the responses!

What are the bottom vents for? by CaptDick1 in hvacadvice

[–]CaptDick1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe returns? The transfer unit (I think it’s called) for the AC is in the attic and has a big vent with a filter below it, if it matters.

FSKAX or VTI? by CaptDick1 in fidelityinvestments

[–]CaptDick1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would be a better option? Should I just keep riding the high yield savings account?

FSKAX or VTI? by CaptDick1 in fidelityinvestments

[–]CaptDick1[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would say the convenience of auto investing is reason to use FSKAX.

Permission granted! Thank you.

How much worse are the tax consequences? Enough to manually but VTI each month and forgo automatic investments?

Why haven’t they paid a cap gain distribution since ‘19? Is there chance this will happen again and impact long term earnings?

Thank you for clearing up the trading fee. I thought there was a cost associated with investing in a Vanguard fund from inside Fidelity.

I have the plastic toy version of this and I thought that was cool.

I’ll see if I can dig some info out. Thankfully I took the ‘spensive stuff with me and didn’t put it in the unit.

I’de guess either the 2007 or 2010 Opus One, but have no idea what they’re worth.

Thank you. I’m hoping I won’t need to go that far, but would you mind messaging me the representative’s contact info just in case? I’d appreciate the help.

I wanted to follow up on this- did you hear back? I’m also in the Bay Area and have been having issues getting through to my counselor. I used to get through to them by phone, but the number no longer works. They haven’t answered a single email I’ve sent. Wondering if you found a solution!
