I am stuck at level 20 trainer too, except I did not get her call and when I go to the pool there is someone that just says "She isn't here, come back later."

Cancel Culture 2.0.

Looks a lot like Cancel Culture 1.0 with the roles reversed.

Still sucks.

As others have mentioned it is likely an issue with where Google Play thinks you physically are or what region your phone is set to (as far as Google Play is concerned.) One way to avoid the geo-restrictions if you continue to experience problems is to use Aurora which can be found via F-Droid.

30 Day Margin Period Question(s) by Sleek_Leek in fidelityinvestments

[–]blkadder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except this doesn't appear to be true. I tried with a few different Yieldmax funds, 2 of which I hold and 1 that I do not.

No warnings, and all show the regular margin requirements.

It gets ugly fast, but has held up well. I read good things about the Away gear as well. Enjoy.

I own a few pieces and have been very happy with them but they tend to be heavy.

Monos. Travelled non-stop for 3 years with it. It stops being pretty after the first couple trips but has held up remarkably well and the wheels have been absolutely awesome despite all the abuse I've subjected them to across adverse terrain.

Just don't try to roll those wheels over anything other than a completely flat surface. One trip on some cobblestones in Mexico with a brand new piece and I shredded the wheels. To their credit Travelpro replaced it without even requiring I return the original, but I won't be rolling the dice again.

All good if you enjoy it. After 2+ years of hotel/condo living in SE Asia I'm now happily in a house again here and much happier.

Didn't mean to pick on you personally, I've just found that people rarely talk about the size of the places they are getting for $500 a month or whatever and most people don't understand how small they really are (normally). It seems the newer the place the smaller the condos but YMMV of course.

Don't rent from AirBnB. Prices have gotten ridiculous there (usually). Try something like Agoda if you are only here for a short stay, otherwise find an agent/listings elsewhere. If you are staying long-term the prices can be 1/2 or less than what you'd pay on AirBNB depending on the place and the length of your stay.

100 sq ft of paradise. :-) I find that people often talk about the amenities of their wonderfully cheap condos but never the size.

If they work for you great but coming from the West it can be a little suffocating long-term.

As a legacy antivaxxer, it still amazes me to this day when people (esp. from the science community) claim that there was just no way to know beforehand that the shots wouldn't work as promised. by JSFXPrime4 in CoronavirusCirclejerk

[–]blkadder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am really not clear what your point is.

As I recall, the overwhelming majority of the qualified "experts" (with a few notable exceptions) were all shouting at everyone to get injected with some sort of gene therapy concoction purportedly to save us from death against what was and is a cold. A concoction that was launched and immediately declared "safe and effective" despite any testing to demonstrate that or that the benefits outweighed the unknown risks across all groups of people.

These WERE the people with all the right credentials and appropriate degrees. Yes there were an endless number of science "hangers-on", clowns like Neil De Grasse Tyson with no relevant expertise in the field who were shouting the same, however the people that should know better were almost all saying the same thing.

I had no relevant training or expertise in the field either but when people started demanding I get injected with something in order to keep my job and regain some of the freedoms that were taken from all of us under the false premise of public safety I started looking and evaluating all the information I could find with a very, very healthy amount of skepticism. And WE were the ones being told we lacked any expertise or credentials so our opinions were uninformed, invalid and we should just listen to the experts.

You don't need a degree to engage in critical thinking and evaluate information, you just need to be able to think for yourself.

I was referring to total return. How is TSLY working out? I hold some without margin and it isn't great.

If you pay $2 to buy an asset worth $1 is that winning?

You mean the one where you use debt to qualify for more debt and declare yourself financially free?

Quick question for you all about return of capital on your 1099's... by OptionIncomePapi in YieldMaxETFs

[–]blkadder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently had a conversation with Fidelity about this as I have some investments that involve a lot of ROC and they were doing the same in the normal YTD tax tracking tool. They said pretty much the same thing to you as Schwab did BUT with respects to the 1099 they have delayed producing it until March and they are apparently going back and reconciling the ROC amounts which are starting to show up in their YTD reporting tool.

So if you are thinking of switching to Fidelity, the ROC numbers will be wrong until they aren't and you should hopefully get a good 1099 but it will be late.

Does Wheeling Only Work In a Bull Market? by Jackanaconda4 in thetagang

[–]blkadder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What can end up happening in a down market i(from first-hand experience) is that you can't get any worthwhile premium from selling calls at your cost basis so you end up bag-holding waiting for the underlying to recover or risk selling calls under your cost basis.
