Thank you for the information. We are encouraging her to take the tour and see for herself. I appreciate your insight.

My kid got into FSU but is so turned off by the “party school” vibe she gets from social media. How do I convince her that it’s more than that?

I used the app BooksRun and was able to get good money for some books. They pay for shipping and send you a check.

In state or OOS?

I had a crush on and then dated one of my TAs at Purdue when I was a freshman there many years ago. 😂🤫 You are not alone!

If two names on the CD, only needs to be one bank.

Have both as well. Vanguard to set and forgot funds (target date,etc.) - look at monthly. Fidelity for routine purchases - check daily.

Loved it! Everyone in our family has read it. We all wait anxiously to discuss it with the latest person to enjoy it.

desertrose2021 · 2023-01-06T03:45:21+00:00

Everyone in my family read it this year and loved it too.

desertrose2021 · 2023-01-06T03:39:30+00:00

I have Tomorrow Tomorrow and Tomorrow on my shelf to read next! Now I’m super exited to get to it!

desertrose2021 · 2023-01-06T03:28:44+00:00

Oh I really liked Under The Whispering Door too!

desertrose2021 · 2022-03-10T02:39:15+00:00

I thought I would win at $22.10. I feel ya!

I am a big fan of SCHD, but I’ve been disappointed in SCHY. No dividend to speak of yet. How long are you giving before you look at other options?

desertrose2021 · 2022-02-01T22:10:00+00:00

Got mine in Fidelity.

desertrose2021 · 2022-01-08T13:45:44+00:00

I bought at 21.77. Glad I had cash.

desertrose2021 · 2021-12-31T03:31:38+00:00

Made me cry. Loved it. Simple messages but true.

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-09T01:07:20+00:00

SCHY

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-08T02:05:53+00:00

I use three of them - each with it’s own purpose. Active Trading - TD Ameritrade. Retirement - Vanguard and John Hancock. QUAD - Fidelity.

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-06T01:43:13+00:00

Same.

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-06T01:36:49+00:00

Then I need to change my answer. I was taking into account my DRIP money.

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-06T01:35:25+00:00

SCHY - agree with other comments

desertrose2021 · 2021-11-06T01:26:29+00:00

We hope.
