Just think of it as a few months of Black Friday deals on securities.

Isn’t that kind of an issue with any gift?

Probably depends on the investments he has access to through his job. If the fees are low maxing out the 401k is a good option. Also, you should look into backdoor Roth contributions.

The sad thing about this is it shows one of the great failures of our educational system. The fact that we don’t teach personal finance (and I use that term deliberately instead of economics) is a large part of the reason that so many people are in financial trouble.

Yep, totally true. It sounds intimidating, but it’s easy to get started. You learn a lot as you go along!

At no point in time does the server say how great a person he is. And we are all aware that if he hadn’t been upset at being shorted in the tip (when it sounds like this…

I can see from the tone of the comments that the narrative is already that the Mets’ tactical and strategic missteps tonight cost them the series, which is odd because the tone of the fireworks going off here in Kansas City is that the Royals are a superb baseball team that went into tonight’s game with a very…

He’s a black belt in Hulk Smash.

The fighting experts will be here very soon to inform us all who would win in a real fight, and how little we know about fighting.
