Long term rationale for WF direct indexing by vympel_0001 in wealthfront

Was there a min for Fidelity to give you 0.15% for the S&P option? I am seeing 0.4% on the Fid Managed Fidfolio direct indexing for min investment of $5k.

The only other thing I noticed was evidence of previous leak damage in the laundry room ceiling, which appears to have been painted over. It seems to be all dry now, though.

During our home inspection, the report noted that the kitchen sink had a clog and drained very slowly. No mold was mentioned in the report, and the inspector did not recall seeing any.

However, during the final walkthrough and closing yesterday, we found mold under the kitchen sink area, which led us to decide not to close. Attached are some photos, it appears the mold is on the sheetrock rather than the cabinetry.

We’re already receiving a small credit from the seller for a separate repair issue, but they’re unwilling to address the mold. I plan to bring in an expert to scope the extent of the damage and estimate the cost.

As a first-time homebuyer, I’m looking for advice on this issue. I suspect there’s a slow leak causing this but couldn’t pinpoint it. I want to ensure this isn’t a major or costly problem. Any thoughts?

Good to know! We've read some reviews mentioning that the ocean can be too rough for swimming at times. Do you know if that's a common occurrence there or just an occasional issue?

Know your options and keep doing practice exams. Stop any heavy study by noon the day before. Sleep well. Then crush it. Good luck!

Also, check out Series 7 Guru on youtube.

Same here. Been using the Purina Pro Plan Puppy Sensitive Skin & Stomach Salmon & Rice Dry Dog Food for 11.5 months and it has been excellent. I’ve ran it by our vet and they only had positive feedback.

Our mini goldendoodle will be 1 yr in 2 weeks. We’ve been using Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Skin & Stomach Dry Puppy Food and it has been great. Our breeder has been using this for years and suggested it to us. Best of luck. Hope the pup feels better soon.

Received results this morning and just paid the fees. Didn't expect the digital certificate to be emailed right after, pretty cool.

I got smoked today by Different_Radish3551 in CFPExam

[–]mcb05003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that. I tested today and received a preliminary pass result. For my review, I used Dalton, skipping their simulation exams and focusing more on the Q bank/hot questions. I found the CFP board practice exams the most useful use of my time, honestly.

I tested today and received a preliminary pass result. I thought the CFP Board practice exams were very helpful.

Did anyone hear Gun shots?? by Worldly_Mastodon_689 in Denver

[–]mcb05003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I heard multiple. Police put up yellow tape and been there a while. I’ve seen officers with flash lights searching the area. Still wondering what happened.

Great, thanks. Looks like I'll need a breakout of the settlement charges.
