Now tell me how to make them so clear that you can see through them.

It’s not robots Kristen, it’s Mexicans. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. We need a wall across the Pacific.

Oh I totally agree with you. I was just sarcastically rolling my eyes at his poor brand perception.

Yea but, the thing is, they’re Toyotas. Statistics, facts, and reasonability don’t matter because... Toyota. Toyota is best. Toyota should be the only company in the world allowed to make cars, ever. Toyota Toyota Toyota!!

Trump administration, bring jobs back to America!! Err... wait...

Just remember there are somewhere between 80-90k flights just in the US per day, if not more. So when you see even one stupid video a week, the odds are in favor of you having a perfectly normal flight.

Ugh Southwest, your employees are not heroes. Stop diluting the meaning of that word!

Just remember to pay close attention to tax impacts. Roth IRA’s are a great investment if your tax bracket is lower today than it will be tomorrow, but if the reverse is true, you have to be careful.

How can you be content? You realize that these kinds of politics are the reason you’re making 42k, and not, say, 72k right? The fact that you could ever be completely content with a government, no matter what party controls it, shows that you simply don’t care enough. You keep less of your own money than the people…

Oh for sure, every company has good and terrible advisors. My old office had both and I supported them all because it was my job. I just picked on EJ because in my experience in the industry, they had more guys in it “for the money” than for actually helping customers. My mom also went with an EJ guy against my…

Spare me your snide remarks, I understand how investing works. My own company stock makes up about one tenth of one percent of my portfolio and I only hold it for fun as an investment for my free money from my credit card rewards.

Or, consider this, there’s a bullshit “image” of Honda vs. FCA, and journalists and consumers won’t effing let it go.

You are literally every parent with one kid. Then when you have a second one (if you do) you’ll realize how annoying trying to strap kids in is in the doors of an SUV, and all the sudden you’ll fall in love with minivans. I’ve seen it happen a million times. Lots of people want, and have, these cars.

Think about the average person driving this car. Most of them don’t even know what a transmission does. And you want them to complain about? Do you think that Chrysler cares at all about what the readers of Jalopnik have to say about the transmission in their minivan? C’mon.

Sure, I agree, if you really NEED that growth. Tom, Dick, Harry, and Sally in their company 401k don’t really need that kind of growth, or frankly, that kind of exposure.

I have a 2% cash back (all purchases) card through Fidelity with no fee because my 401k runs through Fidelity. I either move my monthly earnings to my emergency fund, or buy stock that I like to play around with. I have about $3,000 worth of my companies stock that I haven’t personally paid a dime for. If you…

I did portfolio management for five years as a profession. When it comes to investing in the market, it’s a sham (unless you’re insanely wealthy). What a finance professional should be helping you with is things like planning proper insurance, helping you calculate necessary savings for you goals, longer term estate…

People never seem to care until you show them the compounded cost difference in 12b-1 fees between 1% and .1% over 30 years. It’s really eye opening how much that can cost you in the longer run, especially considering there is a 99.99999% chance that you’ll get no benefit from it.

Things I wish I’d learned early:

I’m from Detroit. None of the buildings are high enough for him, we don’t have that many.
