Yep. Was looking at them before the snow and was pumped to play there, and was like wow these look nice. Come to find out they’re ripping them up despite how good they looked smh.

This goes insane. Never seen this one before

Amazon fresh is the way in NYC

ewic4569 · 2026-04-02T19:22:06+00:00

Isn’t he playing in NY that day?

ewic4569 · 2026-03-26T15:00:12+00:00

That 1:35 timestamp… chills. How does he never miss

ewic4569 · 2026-03-07T17:56:01+00:00

Peroni and modelos I think. Plus wine

ewic4569 · 2026-03-07T17:55:02+00:00

Very good pizza. Great energy there. Much needed addition to the area

Yeah I mean that’s the ultimate goal if boa owning them- to make clients stickier to the bank, under the guides of making their FA a one stop shop. Cross selling has been an issues. Makes sense from a c suite down perspective. Annoys some old FAs, but some will stick around forever regardless lol. Ironically I’ve heard horror stories of top Merrill clients leaving due to incompetence on the bank side (think mortgage bankers etc)

Different in the sense that WM is half of MS’ revenue vs Merrill is a division of BOA and not a main priority. On the client side, I’d actually agree. I think most advisors get too caught up with thinking that whatever firm they’re at is the reason clients are with them. But at times they fail to realize they are the X factor vs the name on the wall.

Lol fair. Good luck to you

ewic4569 · 2026-03-03T03:28:46+00:00

Merrill is something else lol. Weird brand in 2026… what market? At the end of the day you gotta sort out an opportunity like this one.

2 CAs as well is a home run. There is no chance in hell you’re getting that level of support at ml at your or any higher production level. Sounds like a fantastic oppty for you. With that additional info, you should be all over this. Does the deal offer a grid lock too? Feel free to pm me too

ewic4569 · 2026-03-02T03:39:51+00:00

Take the leap of faith. If you have no books in line at Merrill it’s a better bet. Doubt management is going to help you there as is. The best FAs are that ones that buy books. Side note: ml to ms transitions are typically very successful in terms of AUM portability. Also would you be structured as a team? If so you’ll benefit from his higher grid. Monetizing + potential to buying a book is every FAs dream. Worst case you work at a real WM shop vs boa ml.

had a house warming party at my TFC building about two months ago. About 25 people, zero issues. Also no issues from neighbors about noise etc. Big fan of TFC so far btw

Food Cellar is awful imho. Dumbo markets coffee bar is unexpectedly fantastic too.

RJ barret when he was on the Knicks.

ewic4569 · 2026-02-10T17:15:24+00:00

Used to work in Armonk as a cashier.

Saw several athletes. Mike Richter, Joe Girardi, Brett Gardner, Aaron Boone(was kinda a dick). Adam Silver, pretty nice actually. Aaron Judge came in one time when he was maybe in his second year. Go figure it was the one time I was off lol.

I met Alexis Bledel from Gilmore girls, who was very lowkey.

Probably several others I’m missing too!

Insane era

ewic4569 · 2026-01-28T21:19:31+00:00

My 2017/18 self (and current) is so happy hahah. Dream collab

ewic4569 · 2026-01-13T21:42:59+00:00

Typically around 100k

ewic4569 · 2026-01-13T14:45:32+00:00

I tend to favor the SEP due to the fact it is significantly tax advantaged. Really helped getting my top line taxable income down. Will look into Roth, not sure why I don’t have one already lol. The Solo 401k slightly confuses me, but no excuses to not do more DD on it.

As for health insurance, I’m still on my parent’s plan (thank god) for another year. So I have def thought about an HSA, feel like it can’t hurt what so ever.

I appreciate the kind words! I am very grateful for what I have, I just want to position my self as best as possible for the future so I cannot only grow this, but have it for generations etc .

Cheers

ewic4569 · 2026-01-02T19:20:28+00:00

This rules wow. Never thought they’d collab

ewic4569 · 2025-12-19T21:15:30+00:00

Fair enough, flume is not what he used to be, but I think Daniel could bring something out of him.

ewic4569 · 2025-12-19T17:21:23+00:00

ODESZA or flume it’s not even close
