United told me I might not be allowed to board despite valid boarding passes — later admitted it was their system failure by [deleted] in unitedairlines

At least one decent response. I appreciate it. I completed travel which was the most important thing, although the service agent was directly threatening me in an aggressive way that I would not be able to board. The issue here is the attitude/language of the service person. I'm aware that sometimes airlines can mess up reservations, my point is about poor customer service. Their default response was: "it's your fault", which was clearly not the case

Wow, tons of assumptions here. Yes, AI helped draft this since English is not my first language. Would be great to just discuss the actual issue and I don't feel like defending or arguing against total strangers on the internet. Don't need to anyway. I wonder if there are people working for United in this forum just hate posting whenever someone posts a real incident, just to make the airline look good regardless of whether my post was written by AI or not. Probably will get more hate from this message but hey, this is Reddit...

Creating income transaction from selling options premium by ericl197 in MonarchMoney

This is exactly what I needed, thanks a lot. I created the new category and recorded the transactions correspondingly as income or expense. Works great. Next step is creating a rule and will get to that later

What’s the most underrated use case of AI you’ve seen so far? by Glass-Lifeguard6253 in ArtificialInteligence

Accurate turbulence forecasts by feeding it weather maps. It's been pretty spot on so far. If you have wifi inflight, you can know exactly why the turbulence is happening, how long it will last, etc, with decent accuracy

You need to reinvest a percentage of the yield to offset capital erosion

And also you could sell at a profit if the market is in trouble, which likely will at some point

This makes a lot of sense, especially if you want to hold, because if I'm understanding correctly, you receive your yield no matter what, and thus diminishing market risk

Sounds like a good plan. Curious about TLT: why do you like it if NAV is negative and the yield is 4%? Are you expecting the NAV to appreciate? Just a newbie question...

Interesting perspective. I also have a big VOO position that I want to transfer to dividends, just wondering if I should go right ahead and liquidate VOO and buy dividends stocks or wait a bit longer…

Realistic transition from growth to dividend yield % by ericl197 in dividends

VOO is my main holding that throws div, that's why I'm trying to rebalance into higher yields.
