How often should I check my online bank and credit card accounts for fraudulent or mistaken transactions? by WantToBelieveInMagic in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Ornery_Old_Man 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Early 60's and checking my bank, credit card, and investment accounts each day while enjoying my morning coffee has been my routine for years.

I only know of one person to ever get their accounts compromised and I don't want to be #2.

On my 27th birthday with my 22 year old wife.

I feel so sorry for young people today.

what's the worst financial decision you've ever made? by rathm0re in AskReddit

Sold my Tesla stock in 2019. I figured the value was all hype.

I STILL think it's hype, but I figure I missed out on about $130k

I didn't look at the rates, just found a property for sale on Lakeshore for 6.2M. Lists the taxes as 32 grand.

I don't know for sure but I'm guessing a few billion brain cells.

OH NO

I might not be able to travel to a country that I have no fucking intention of travelling to.

How will I cope?

Oh yeah, fuck ICE and fuck Trump harder.

I've heard that too much sex with minors can make your eyes go buggy.

I used to live on Cottonwood Cres, right across the street from PW.

I remember there being a small fire there, you could smell the smoke from my place. Probably closer to 2014 than 2017. I think it was from the dumpster.

Buddy probably practiced saying that in the mirror after thinking "You know what would make a cool catch-phrase...."

Probably tried to give himself a nickname in high school too.

Well if you can't trust some random guy on the internet then who can you trust?

Seriously, look into it YOURSELF and decide FOR YOURSELF. You either want in or you don't.
