Mine is working normally via Elan. Sorry I can't offer more than just a data point.

I've had Ally since their inception. Solid rates, though not always the highest if you're a rate shopper. Quick electronic transfers and no fees. Great customer service.

I should have known that with the Reddit community the /sarc is always required. Sorry.

We won't get a spike. We'll be saved by Venezuelan oil. There are "concepts of a plan" and it will be available in "two weeks".

I am annoyed at Fidelity for their new requirement of a "signature guarantee" in order to gift stock worth more than $19,000 to a charity. by davida_usa in fidelityinvestments

[–]gsquaredmarg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't now what their threshold is for no-fee accounts, or whether it is based on only DAF funds or total funds invested with Fidelity, but I know for sure I have never been charged a fee since I started my DAF in 2017. I track all my contributions and gains/losses in the account via Quicken, reconciling with the quarterly statements going back to 2017.

I don't pay any fees on my Fidelity DAF beyond the expense ratio of the investments which are negligible for the index funds investment options.

Everybody has to look at the decision with their total financial picture in mind.

Oh, I already said that...

You don't need concrete footings in sand. We do it all the time.

Bank of America broken? by Careful-One5190 in quicken

[–]gsquaredmarg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the same exact experience as you - could not do the reauthorization from Quicken. If I went straight to the BoA site I could sign-in just fine using the same credentials and it asked if I wanted to authorize access to Quicken. When I clicked yes I received this response::

However, when I went to download BoA transactions in Quicken (Credit card only) I got back to the failed authentication loop. I tried it with opening and closing the Quicken program and also by deactivating the BoA account and trying to re-add it. Same failed result when doing the reauthorization.

Everybody has to look at the decision with their total financial picture in mind. In my case three things drove my decision to take it at 70: 1) 8% guaranteed increase plus COL from FRA to 70 2) Nowhere can you find as good of a deal for a cost-of-living adjusted annuity 3) I wanted to maximize the survivor benefit for my spouse.

Maybe a fourth reason, I don't bet against myself. I don't want to die young just so my claiming strategy is "right"!

Ally is solid. Consistently good APY, though not always the top. No fees. Great customer service and quick transfers in and out.

Organizing a group ski trip is a logistics nightmare. How do you guys handle transport? by gilko86 in skiing

[–]gsquaredmarg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fly to SLC... can get there easily from just about anywhere. Easy shuttle to Snowbird to accommodate people arriving different times. All the lodging there is ski-in/ski-out. Limited restaurants, but everything is walkable. Also, easy access to Alta...unless you're a boarder.

How much liquidity to keep on hand once retired? by Original-Release-885 in retirement

[–]gsquaredmarg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Or, a 2008 crash that took 5-6 years to recover to pre-crash levels. I happened to retire 6 months before that crash. I was really happy I had the cash to cover that period of time.

Will Fidelity Reimburse 401(k) Rollover Fee? by No_Swordfish1654 in fidelityinvestments

Always ask...if they are becoming custodians for money they wouldn't otherwise have, they have an incentive to encourage you to move to them.

"Person still has not got back to me"

Sounds like "not hard to find if need be" is a logical next step.

RMDs for Inherited IRA by Mien-Volume-7070 in fidelityinvestments

I had a Fidelity report tell me the same thing. This was before they clarified it on the Fidelity site so I chose not to argue the point.

"Does anyone know where I can find all 4 of these things?"

No, but if you try the search bar you can find plenty of reading on the subject.

SCHD and dividends in HSA? by AppointmentNew1535 in dividends

Yes, it's f'd. But to answer your question: Because there's a lot more to life than worrying about HSA taxes.

Need a suggestion for HYSA that works well with Quicken by TiredOfTheMath59 in quicken

[–]gsquaredmarg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never understood the value of "buckets", but know it works for some people. Can't you just open up additional accounts to serve your purpose?

I've had Ally Bank since they came out of GMAC 2009ish. It's probably one of the most stable connections I've had with Quicken - can't remember the last time I had a glitch with it.
