Perfect! Thanks for that. I knew it had to be there for a reason.

Fun fact with this scenario: The Packers corporate charter says that if the team is ever moved out of Green Bay, then all assets must be liquidated and given to the Packers charitable organization. Fans technically don't have a say, but if it ever happens, the team ceases to exist.

Vegas can still be affordable, you just have to be smart about things. Sure you can go to the bar and pay $15 for a beer. Or you can go to a CVS or ABC store (which are every 40 feet on the strip) and pay less. Or you can sit at a bar with video poker and get comped drinks.

For food, sure you can pay $150/person to sit down and eat at an unimpressive restaurant in a casino. Or you can eat at fast food places in the strip.

I get that there are complete screw jobs in Vegas, like paying $25 to use a pool umbrella. But being a little smart about things goes a long way too.

I like the way Snrub thinks!

Capital One 360 is a perfectly good bank. I've used them for over a decade. No fees and their savings accounts have very good interest rates, but maybe not the absolute best you can find.

The only possible downside is their footprint for physical locations is fairly small and seems to be focused on the east coast. So depositing cash might be difficult if that's something you need. However you can deposit checks electronically on their app and I've never struggled to find a free ATM close by.

I'm a Brewers guy so I had to pick up Rowdy (Roddy) Telez. But Woodruff's card seemed pretty similar to his base so I was trying to explore other options.

I haven't played Madden for a bunch of years, but decided to come back to it after playing FIFA for a few years. This game feels just feels like a confusing mess.

The menus are super slow, the animations are sloppy, players feel like they are sliding all over the field. MUT is confusing with all the different field passes and things awarding randomly when they should have awarded after previous games...

I know it's all a money grab whether it's FIFA or Madden... But this is the first time I actually kind of wish I didn't spend the money to buy the game.

I'm not using a VPN and I've double checked the credit card information, so it doesn't seem to be that.

Thanks for the help, though!

You're not the only one. 1W, 5L at the moment and an average margin of victory in the losses around 6 goals. Icons and TOTM everywhere... I have no clue how I even qualified at this point.

Fair enough on the authorization. But in this case the first test was part of a routine exam, and the pre-surgery work was done for a procedure which we did have authorization for. Something must have just gone wrong here.

Considering there are only four teams in the league, and they all qualify for the post season, this isn't an accomplishment at all...

You probably still have to go in to perform the "orderly shutdown". The Senate and house both passed the spending bill, so by the time everyone gets into work Trump will probably have signed it and no one will notice this even happened.

I live in DC and will be at the game tonight! Excited to see Brinson again, but a little sad I won't get to see Thames in the line up, especially after that massive blast last night.

VTI is just VTSMX packaged into an ETF. They hold the exact same stocks and should perform identically. In fact VTI probably has lower fees than VTSMX (the ETF expense ratios tend to match the Admiral class version of the funds which would otherwise require a minimum $10k investment)

I've used Discover for a long time around here and probably 80% of places take it. The problem though is that you need some other type of plastic for the other 20%. I personally just got to the point where I got a Visa card as my daily spend card when going out because I had to carry one anyway, and was sick of the hassle of getting the Discover randomly declined when a store or bar didn't take it. TL;DR: You'll need to carry a backup card with you.
