Never used that part of sysinternals, but ccleaner does the same job. It shows you the path the application loaded, so it’s easier to decide if you can turn it off.

And the app size grows from 69.8 to 132.7MB? - No, thank you.

Have you looked into Veracrypt or Cryptomator? I’m using both (locally and synced via Dropbox) and very happy with them.

I’m with you. The pic above is from a Betterment promo video (source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-9II-zBq1k) - looks like that’s the general assumption. Maybe for some? But surely not for the majority.

Shep - I’m glad that you are writing about this, since I was noticing the “Smart Saver” popping up recently. It appears that Betterment is running a very offensive marketing strategy here and I wonder why.

I poked around a bit and have a couple of concerns I’d like to share.

1. Betterment is imposing this new “goal”…

Haha - Had to laugh too. Apparently lifehacker has only one airport photo. And that’s Schipol.

No reputable hotel will ever call and ask for your credit card number. They will always ask you to stop by the Front Desk.

You can set this up with dd-wrt and it works like a charme (never tried with Tomato.)

Travel pepper grinder. Had to deal with year-old, pre-ground, shitty-tasting stuff too often.

Could this be the moment to ditch the robo advisor and move your investment to Vanguard?

Brian,

Just wanted to add to it (since I had that discussion just a couple o days ago..)

Exactly: You’re actually betting against the insurance company that you live longer than they think. Surely it’s a less turbulent investment, but your return is usually capped at around 4%. If the market goes up 20%, you’re stuck with 4%. If the market goes down 20%, you won’t loose money.

I will agree here yes - most anything that is overly complicated (i.e. German) will not be something most people keep that long.

NYCBrit - your post makes me smile because I could have written it exactly the same (including the doggie part ;(

I had the same thought when starting to invest with one of the Robo’s and over time I do not see the benefit they’re always claiming - likely due to the fact that I don’t have 3000$ to write off.

Just wanted to make the clear, since there is quite a hype currently about investing in an HSA. But...if you maxed out your 401(k) and your Roth, it seems like investing with tax free $$$ in an HSA and using it like another deferred tax haven makes sense.

I’m sorry Alicia,

Income limits do play a big role here since tax advantages are fading out on both plans, but - yes! - good point!
