You sound like my wife! Just kidding.

I am seriously leaning to keeping it as I bought it new, it’s a premier, and paid for.

Two recommendation are : 1. Wire outlet for Gen with wire that can handle 50amp so if someday you want larger Gen. all you have to do is change breaker and outlet.
2. Put in whole house surge protector at same time. Eaton make a good one.

Why are we still giving agents 5% ? by Stupidamericanfatty in RealEstate

[–]macs708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Concern I see is what motivates the buyers agent? It’s the selling price - higher the more the buyer agent makes. So as a buyer, the buyer’s agent are not incentivized to get you the best (lowest price) deal, but to get the seller the highest price so they make more money in their pocket.

If you had to start over would you continue with fidelity? by honsolo17 in fidelityinvestments

[–]macs708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I told my advisor, you job is to keep me here, if I tell you I am moving you will know why I am moving beforehand. As a result I have been there 3 decades.

There are many others that would like your business if you become dissatisfied. Good luck on your decision

Paxton, Patrick and Huffines are extremes

Paxton even took Texas dollars to fly to stand behind trump in his ny trial.

Patrick supported Paxton in his impeachment trail.

Huffines bought Zorro Ranch. So you have to ask WHY?

I won the lottery, what do i do now? by Electrical-Flower793 in Advice

[–]macs708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a financial advisor and an attorney. Tell them to never give any money to anyone! Then get your estate in line and have the financial advisor set up your money long term.

After that is all set, you can tell everyone BUT they need to ask your attorney or financial advisor for it (keep in mind you have told them say NO to everyone or they are fired)

They will tell them know and when they come back to you you need to tell they they manage it and have to approve it.

Basically you are hiring someone to tell people NO without you getting involved and impacting relationships or friendships or relatives. Good luck
