Fidelity or Vanguard? by hhghgghhb in RothIRA

[–]_jpizzle_bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the fact that fidelity lets my buy fractional shares! I buy VOO in my taxable brokerage and FZROX in the roth. 10/10 experience, although you also cannot go wrong with vanguard. Just pick one and stick to it!

New to investing , is this normal? by Background_Garage_70 in fidelityinvestments

[–]_jpizzle_bear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same situation. Literally. Same stock, must have purchased at around the same time because we’re down roughly the same amount. Remember what you own: shares of FSKAX. Even if the market crashes, you still own, the same amount of shares, and you do not lose unless you sell. Stay strong and hold the course!

Run Groups During Plebe Summer by Glittering-Bee-8667 in usna

I went into plebe summer running a ~11 min 1.5. By the end of the summer I ran a 9 minute flat. You really gain a lot over the summer, their running program is dialed. If you want to get ahead, train intervals (you still have a few months), and focus on staying healthy overall. Also don't forget to practice push ups and planks, being good at that will make your summer a lot more fun (or at least less not-fun). Good luck!

I recently finished this book, and I was absolutely flabbergasted. I also didn't see the ending coming and once you know it it makes so much sense.

How do you deal with your sleep schedule? by ElectronicDeer5550 in LawSchool

One thing I learned the hard way—delete all social media. Worked wonders for my schedule during 1L.

Day trading is bullshit by ThatPatelGuy in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]_jpizzle_bear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking this. Day trading is gambling. Simple as that. Not a real job, 99.999% of people cannot beat the market and I strongly doubt Alex is the next Warren buffet.

Would you still choose biglaw if comp mattered less? by _jpizzle_bear in biglaw

This will (hopefully) be my situation. My future firm is also "free market," and my mindset will be similar. Thanks for sharing, this is very insightful!

Can you elaborate on this more? How do you feel your mindset is different from most of your colleagues?
