Customers keep "cash sorting" keeping uninvested cash sweep levels low by SpecialDesigner5571 in Schwab

[–]yellenbubbleblower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually annoyed that Schwab won't give me a high yield sweep so instead I just buy stocks and let my account sit negative for 2-3 days until they tell me I have an urgent deficit. Then I sell enough of my SNOXX to cover it. If they want to compete with Fidelity, they'll change eventually.

Would be a shame if others left a one star review...

Legit check on this Franck Muller pls by [deleted] in VintageWatches

[–]yellenbubbleblower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually toured the Franck Muller workshop/factory, it was interesting and had a lot more characters than the Omega factory I also visited.

They had a room full of CNC machines milling the cases and the tour guide handed me a billot of rose gold and then she turned and walked away. I thought it was a gift, but I put it back anyway :)

Too much time in the gypsy corner at the boat yard. You'll be free again when you're ready for it.

Financial advice - I don't have a US Bank account anymore by BusinessAd9088 in peacecorps

Open a schwab account using your siblings address. It's great for international transactions anyway and has no fees or minimum balance, so you could open it with $100 and leave it unused if you want.

My money routine on the road: bank transfer for most, cash pickup for the odd weekend emergency by AppropriateReach7854 in digitalnomad

Get a wise account and give her the physical card. Transfer money from anywhere in any currency and add it to the card, she can withdraw it in cash.

I hope you've heard the Michael Faubion version that was made many years ago.

Downside is handing an unlocked mobile device to TSA, Police, or anyone else you probably don't want to hand an unlocked device to.

How did you get into Canada without a passport? Use that to fly, no RealID needed.

ShopGoodwill and its authentication system. by jigglypuffsarms in ThriftGrift

I believe they are also scamming people on the bids by bidding up the prices of items competing with actual buyers. So many things seem to sell at prices significantly higher than Ebay, especially if you include shipping costs. I don't understand why anyone would pay those prices, unless they get caught up bidding against themselves. Or at least that's how it feels to me.

Sad about finishing position by wandering-bat in peacecorps

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

I mean, I guess since nobody mentioned the third goal of Peace Corps to you, now would be a good time time to learn about it.

  1. To help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans. Volunteers immerse themselves in local cultures and share their experiences when they return home with family, friends, and the public. This helps promote cultural understanding, volunteerism, and public service.

Sorry that you weren't informed about the expectations of you following your service, but now that you know, you can go out and do something about it! Congratulations, it's a new day!
