Ironically a coworker just told me about his $GME funded Norco Range he’s hoping to buy.

@Chupacabra, I feel I must drag you out of the Bitcoin and GME thread. Its never too late- the best tree you can plant is today.
Make a plan and follow through. But not with single stocks.
And Splinky, its definitely too late for a 30 y.o. sugar momma, sorry bud.
If I can plant a tree now Syncro can find a sugar mama, he just has to be flexible on the age.
EDIT: Thanks Neils for the link.
mmmmmmmmmmmm.... suger mama

yeah agree on TransferWise, easy to transfer to from my US/CAD Accounts. Direct debit daily max is $9500 though, but super inexpensive.
Clearly, you are more baller than I if you transfer these figures daily! :lol:
still doing it. 1x a month or so. limits are higher now, and Transferwise is changing to just Wise, but rates are a little lower.

have now started it - a tad basic , but I suppose with literacy in the title it is meant to be basic - I like it a lot so far, and it is certainly worth the price
Please stop fucking up my thread. This is about good people saving dollars with the friendly mega-corporations we trust to grow those dollars.
Or BTC if you're a dreamer
Watch out!
It's only when the tide goes out that you learn who’s been swimming naked,” the billionaire investor Warren Buffett has famously said.
During the crash of 2008, the whole world learned just how dangerously nude Wall Street was. Now evidence is accumulating that suggests that many financial institutions are skinny-dipping once more — via similar types of lending that could lead to similar disasters as the water recedes again due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Knowledge is power.
What did the S&P do for a year in 2008? What did it do for the next 10 years?

I bought two ethereum coins a month ago. I'll give ya'll an update in six months.
March 27-29 2021: ETH-USD $1700-1800, call it $1750 each
VTI : $206 plus a 1.37% yield: 17 shares instead of two coins
We’ll see in ten years. I’m honestly curious.

I'm curious too. I guess it all comes down to if you think crypto is here to stay or not.
In the last month I've seen similar gains to what I would have gotten holding VTI for a year.
