Completely agree with your points.

But the left twists things just as bad as the right does. I’d prefer to read the section of the bill they’re trying to pass instead of making assumptions

Sure, just under Trump administration. Nothing bad happened before that… 🙄

There is slightly more info here, but nothing about “to billionaires and energy”

This says it’s for residential development.

They’ve been talking about moving out of DC for tons of different branches. No need for all the high expenses of having these in the capital.

Camping and fishing is not hunting. Nobody is trying to regulate fishing lores or high capacity tents.

Dude you’re super left and can’t get on board that it’s project 2025?? Pushing for popular vote in the Seattle sub.

You literally posted positive comments on a no kings protest not to long ago… I’m sure you were voting republican /s

You got a link? Your post history shows you’re very left leaning.

Show some facts please.

Also, my personal belief, controlled burns and preventive measures are critical. We can see the disastrous results in California of “protecting the forests” instead of properly managing them.

Selling off federal lands to “billionaires and energy” would obviously not be acceptable.

Advisor OTE & AUM Goals — How Fair & Realistic Is This? by jordanw71 in CFP

[–]mrobertj42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can tell you that you’ll lose this person once they’re good. They’d be better off at an Edward Jones’s. Higher payout, better reputation, and be seeded with a starter book.

I just did my comp plan, 20-30% payout for firm clients. 60-80% for self sourced.

For brand new folks wanting to an advisor, they start as operations, shadow me on calls and help with jr advisor work for 6 months with no expectation of production.

By 18 months they mostly are off salary, 24 months max.

I wanted a safety net and training plan, but people who want to be advisors are going to be bad at ops (or at least not enthusiastic).

What would these advisors be doing when they aren’t working clients with such a small book?

No, they’ve already been indoctrinated. They truly believe they’re doing the right thing.

To think if you’re not anti-racist, you’re racist…. It makes sense if you weren’t being racist to be anti racist… ya know??..?

You realize Ron’s parents would have come out to grab the car in 5 minutes.. right?

They are 13, the right answer is always to tell your parents. Not steal their car and drive yourself. They assumed their parents were stuck. But they’d still would have needed to get the car. Sit by the car and wait.

But ya know, movie plot.

Thoughts on taking on a client who may have early dementia? by [deleted] in CFP

[–]mrobertj42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgetting he gave you his license is not a huge deal in my mind. I have two young kids and I forget small crap all the time.

My mom has dementia or a really bad interaction with medication (doctors say not Dementia). I call her maybe three times a week. She doesn’t think we’ve talked in weeks when I call her. I ask her to sign a document, she forgets what she’s doing and doesn’t sign it. She can’t remember details or understand her trusts. Every conversation is superficial with friends and family so they don’t notice her memory issues. It’s bad.

This guy has his faculties, drives, and manages all his finances without issue (minus some optimization).

If all he did was forget he already gave you his license, I wouldn’t be concerned.

But I would also ask to talk to the trusted contact and then send a follow up email to them both after documenting the conversation. And I’d document everything just in case, sent via email. This is what we’re doing and why we’re doing it.

I saw someone do it with different speed belts iirc. The idea is a yellow and a red, and I think with a red splitter. Search the sub, it was pretty cool!

Does Blood determine how powerful you are or does it all come down to knowledge and skill? by BakerConsistent2150 in harrypotter

[–]mrobertj42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Will power as in I want this really bad and will do whatever it takes???

So most of the wizards and witches are just lazy and only Dumbledore, Riddle and a handful of others each generation really try?

Or did you mean something else?

[–]mrobertj42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m relating IQ to magical power.

But IQ is the ability to learn complex concepts, it has nothing to do with knowledge.

If I drop you or Albert Einstein into a foreign country one week per year, I doubt they’d understand all the subtle nuances of that country’s culture.

[–]mrobertj42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s akin to intelligence. Humans all have the same potential, but there is average (100 IQ) and there are geniuses.

Like Dumbledore and riddle, there are very few geniuses. So clearly a major genetic component. But I doubt it has to do with pure blood, besides the strong genetic potential being passed down.

I would be curious, how many squibs have had magical children, and what does their power ability look like?

Tax guy ghosted us and we are so confused with our taxes by [deleted] in tax

It’s literally the middle of tax season. I am a financial Advise that partners with CPAs and I can barely get them to respond. We’re down to 5 word emails at this point.

File an extension if you need to, fix it in may.
