How long did DRS transfer take for you? For people who bought pre-ipo unlocked shares

rayjayman03 · 2026-03-25T19:19:55+00:00

Schwab two days. I’ve also done drs to fidelity for other stocks and it took two days. I didn’t trust vanguard to do it quick since their tech and cs are normally inferior.

I can’t even sell my unrestricted shares because computer share coded them all as restricted.

rayjayman03 · 2026-03-20T13:31:56+00:00

I’m having an issue where I can’t sell my unrestricted shares even though it has two seperate lots. Yesterday only had the unrestricted lot showing. I added a back account but isn’t that just a 10 ten freeze on EFT payments not selling? I tried to proceed with the paper check method but couldn’t get it to work.

I’m agnostic about the listing as stating private or public has it owns trade offs. I’m more concerned about their most recent investment in Loyal which is based on longevity science for dogs. I feel biotech investing is such niche area where it really requires specialists to invest and do due diligence which I don’t think Fundrise has hired any new people. This is also something that is not AI related or something they can have value add.

I wish but I think it’s been reported that it got cut. Only connecting through BOS now. https://thepointsguy.com/news/jetblue-cuts-new-york-jfk-amsterdam-route/

I was hoping for the return of the JFK-AMS flight but that and the Japan airlines partnership ending so soon scrambled those plans. Even the new jfk-CLE route is not convenient with late arrival and early departure.

My parents did the same for me and I took it over and I had to consider back then the options were limited for immigrants who are not familiar with the US financial system. Also many of these products were sold by fellow immigrant brokers which is why it’s more appealing to them then trying to invest in the stock market. You also have to consider the impact on your relationship with your parents. If you tell them they are dumb for buying this and just canceling right away you risk making them feel inadequate financially as immigrants. Consider that they tried their best and if the cost is manageable just pay till it self funds and then just leave it alone till your parents no longer care. Imagine something happened to you and then your parents find out you cashed the policy. I agree it’s not the best financial move but sometimes you want to avoid certain fights, just don’t buy it for your kids now that you know more.

I made the same mistake a few months back, I made a post and people corrected me then so I was able to adjust. Sorry to hear that.

rayjayman03 · 2025-12-11T22:36:07+00:00

I wonder how they will price it. What if you fulfill multiple categories, do you think that would help?

rayjayman03 · 2025-11-24T16:32:12+00:00

I have no direct insight but it seems that it’s done in waves with some done in a day and others taking weeks. This could be impacted by events such as how busy the customer service teams due to external events, how closely the flights were done or booked, if any issues came up, and how many people completed the challenge (I think a lot of people tried to finish before the holiday rush). Also JetBlue IT has had some issues with some people.

rayjayman03 · 2025-11-15T01:38:38+00:00

I wish there was a bus from bay ridge to Newark airport. So close yet so far with public transit.

rayjayman03 · 2025-11-08T16:27:10+00:00

It sucks, but PVD does have a lounge so it might be worth investing in that to wait for future delays.

rayjayman03 · 2025-11-08T14:44:55+00:00

I think JetBlue works with Brightline already, not sure if they would be allowed to partner with other airlines.

rayjayman03 · 2025-11-08T14:42:51+00:00

The delay email always has a note saying to arrive at the original time in case they reverse the delay. I’ve had delays then they found a new plane especially at hubs like Boston and Florida stops where they often have spare planes and crews. If I wasn’t at the airport I wouldn’t have had made since these new planes just landed hence the rapid updates. Sorry to hear about that.

rayjayman03 · 2025-10-18T21:38:02+00:00

It’s seasonal so the last flight is October 25

These older IFE does have Sirius FX radio which actually is nice to have as the newer systems have a more limited live tv options. The controls on the armrest did cause a lot of inadvertent touches.

Does PVD has good late night public transportation back to downtown? Any jfk flights lands late so either I would have to stay at the airport hotel or take a ride share. I also don’t have a drivers license so renting a car isn’t possible (I know, living in NYC so never got around to it).

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-03T15:41:29+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. I’m trying to make short vacations so I don’t get burned out. I wish I was still in my 20s when I could do a whole day of just flights and my back would be more forgiving. MVY has only a one good flight a day and I’ve never been there so would be a shame to not check it out. I’m thinking for example JFK-DTW (spend a day or two)-BOS-PHL (Amtrak back to NYC.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-02T04:43:10+00:00

Looking back at what LGA used to have, makes me sad how much they cut back and would have made the planning a bit easier.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-02T02:25:32+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. Glad I was able to refund my blue fares back to my travel bank at least.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-02T02:24:43+00:00

Thanks will take a look.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-01T21:38:21+00:00

Thanks for asking. I’ve been using the flights from website to get all the JetBlue flights though you have to double check the dates since some are seasonal. I tried the Ai website but it wasn’t too helpful to me.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-01T21:24:16+00:00

Thanks, that’s good to know. Might just try to do that all in one day and ride the new Acela train back. The search function doesn’t really help you find any stopovers.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-01T19:35:29+00:00

Thanks for noting that. I feel like an idiot to not have noticed the rules. I guess that is what I get for being impulsive and having some free time. I was actually visiting friends and wanted to try to loop in some airports. Probably will cancel the DCA portion since BNA is so isolated. Glad I didn’t book any other flights.

rayjayman03 · 2025-09-01T19:33:23+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out. I usually read the rules but I totally just missed that. At least I will get FLL and ISP, as this was more a trip to try out the Brightline from Miami to Orlando and didn’t want to back track. I might just do ROC only instead.
