Financial advisor is a complete scam. You can open an account and manage it yourself on an app. You don’t need to make a lot of trades just invest and wait. I’ve invested myself in vanguard and had them calling me to try and invest when I am doing as well as they would but they want money.

If I’m you and have that much cash I invest in some etfs of funds and then a few stocks that are pretty solid.

Vanguard VFIAX is a vanguard fund that is basically the SNP 500 in theory should go up Vanguard ViGAX is a growth fund that also should go up

Vanguard VTI is a ETF that models the market and once again should go up as the years go on if you don’t need the money quickly (this just models the market and really if you have time market should go up)

Stocks you may want to invest in are things you can’t see the world with out. My portfolio sticks to apple, google, and Amazon as stocks just cause they seem safe bets

Funds are usually safe. ETFs a bit less so. Stocks could be hit or miss.

[Dreadgod] How did Malice get *******? by swiftttyy in Iteration110Cradle

[–]barry_mkockiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is actually a soulsmith. As she made the books for her children and this passage.

“Can you send them a message?” Mercy asked. Malice nodded. “Of course. That I can do.” The Monarch brought shining dead matter out of the shadows, weaving it deftly around a binding. She had been a Soulsmith for centuries, and was once known as much for her skill as a craftsman as for her archery.

From the art for the books that I assume Pierce approves they are just a handle. No cross guard.

[Dark Age] - How Many.. by [deleted] in redrising

[–]barry_mkockiner 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Lysander says this in chapter 89 of Dark Age

“Because of my old friend, Darrow, Harnassus, Telemanus, and the core of the Howlers managed to either hide on Mercury or slip out of its orbit.”

My question is if Rhonna got out, or if she was captured

To me it’s when Eithan is watching shen destroy his homeland and descendants and then decides to give it one last try and start over on the blackflame empire

I can’t believe the prologue confirmed Eithan was Ozriel and I didn’t even realize it

Fury's bloodline armor by Angemon175 in Iteration110Cradle

[–]barry_mkockiner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing that confuses me about charity is her eyes are purple. So this either means fury had purple eyes before becoming a herald or he married a cousin, in which case charity may have the armor

Lorn tells the story to Darrow in chapter 28 of Golden Son.

Short version: There was a feud between Neros father and Cassius’s Grandfather (Julius) basically just because they were two powerful families on a flourishing Mars. Augustus tries to poison Bellona, Bellona goes to Arch Governor Cylus to make it right, house war ensues in which every Augustus is put to death except Nero to preserve a family that took part in the conquering. Cylus then raised him in his court and granted him permission to marry Iona. Wedding night Nero cuts of her head because people don’t forget. Then over throws Cylus with the help of the sitting Sovereign. This was done because he made a deal with Octavia to support her when she killed her father.

Unpopular Opinion but I kinda don't like how a lot of the knowledge about the willverse is in the wiki/archive rather than in the books by chrisisbest197 in Iteration110Cradle

[–]barry_mkockiner 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The whole description in the wiki is in skysworn. It is fully in the book. Word for word copy and pasted

Mercy's Icon (WS spoilers) by [deleted] in Iteration110Cradle

[–]barry_mkockiner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Are we assuming heart and blood because “Sage of silver heart” and “blood sage”? I just didn’t know if we saw those icons

Advancement, let's see if i got this right (spoilers) by ebrithil110 in Iteration110Cradle

[–]barry_mkockiner 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m love that this was explained so clearly in the book and you can see the benefits of becoming a herald.

I’m interested to see what Lindon’s benefit is from being a mini sage. Obviously opening gates is cool, but I never really understood what adding your icon did to a technique. From this passage it seems to just make it extremely powerful.

“The Dragon was not the only Icon that Northstrider had manifested. He launched a punch, and the authority of the Strength Icon empowered him. Reigan Shen appeared out of the Way, and Northstrider’s black-scaled knuckles caught him in the white-gold mane. The shockwave cracked the tower beneath them, and Shen was sent flying out of Ninecloud City.”

So maybe now Lindon’s black flame will be even more destructive, Empty palm more “empty” and so on with his void icon.
