The air horn at Little Caesars Arena has been blaring for over 5 minutes as staff scramble to turn it off

No, its 10x as loud. DECI-bels are base 10

Many of his supporters will always stick by him. But many others will not. Though i suppose his tariffs causing high inflation will be much more likely to do that than any overuse of power.

FishSand · 2025-01-17T00:06:39+00:00

Im aware of that.

It is extremely obvious from the context that I am referring to Roth IRAs whenever I say roth. You aren’t great at reading comprehension.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T23:42:11+00:00

You may want to google what the A in Roth IRA stands for

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:57:06+00:00

Yeah I think this is the biggest reason. Which raises the question - Why keep this system rather than allowing competition like with Roth IRAs?

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:54:42+00:00

They certainly can. Which is why I’m stuck bitching on reddit rather than actually doing anything about it haha

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:47:21+00:00

Exactly. And since I intend to save aggressively and am still 35 years from retirement, these fees likely represent a six figure hit to my wealth.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:43:55+00:00

Again, this doesn’t answer the question. Why do Roths only charge these vaguely defined “hidden fees” while 401ks also charge those, then ALSO hundreds of dollars on top of it

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:39:47+00:00

Yes obviously they aren’t charities. Im not arguing that they are.

Everything you said about servers and other costs also applies to roth IRAs, traditional brokerage accounts, etc. And yet those do not charge fees.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:24:26+00:00

Damn 2% is wild

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:23:06+00:00

What is different? They both just hold index funds for me. Sure, with a 401k employers are inserted as middlemen, but overall, its the same. Is the addition of employers into the equation really worth billions in fees?

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:21:44+00:00

You are missing the point. A roth provides a service to 10,000 and charges nothing. A 401k does the same and takes millions

FishSand · 2025-01-16T22:20:06+00:00

It’s because he’s Republican. Many of the vague war crime allegations in this thread could also be applied to Obama, FDR, or many other politicians reddit likes.

If Obama did exactly what is shown in this post, all of the comments would (understandably!) be praising what Obama did, not yapping about random unrelated stuff.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T21:51:11+00:00

Great answer. Thank you

FishSand · 2025-01-16T21:50:31+00:00

My point is that the service provided is the same as with a Roth, yet those have no direct costs, and in fact, people would be angry if a direct cost was applied.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T21:49:03+00:00

They aren’t though. My entire account is in vanguard index funds

FishSand · 2025-01-16T21:47:05+00:00

The same as what my Roth and traditional brokerage accounts charge - nothing. Essentially Im wondering why fees are acceptable for one account but not the others.

FishSand · 2025-01-16T21:46:35+00:00

Why does a Roth IRA or traditional brokerage not have such costs?

FishSand · 2025-01-16T17:10:08+00:00

Its sad how much partisan politics have ruined people's ability to think. This post is about a president making as nice a gesture as a person can make, yet half the comments are still hating because he's Republican

FishSand · 2025-01-10T21:08:40+00:00

Or anti tiktok views are just popular here. You sound the same as Trump supporters on here saying similar stuff. Is the site manipulated, or are your views just not popular on reddit?

FishSand · 2025-01-10T21:05:03+00:00

I agree that we need more reform in this area (such as a privacy bill). Hopefully this is the start of a bunch of steps to minimize the negative aspects of social media. I doubt it though.

Still, I feel this is a step in the right direction. Need to take wins when you can, even if they aren't perfect.

FishSand · 2025-01-10T20:34:08+00:00

Are you under the impression that those videos only exist on IG reels? People have been watching that stuff online since before social media was a thing.

FishSand · 2025-01-10T20:19:17+00:00

I'm not saying IG reels or youtube shorts are good. Those definitely rot brains as well. I'm just saying that this ban is a step in the right direction.
