I am personally living better with less cost on the island and don’t feel anything about not having in the US. They have Costco and Walgreens here down the street

PM me if you want more details, but depending on your needs you can get a decent house between 300-500K, or rent. I don’t think you have to buy right away. It’s really fine, I live about 10 minutes from the beach and I have better Internet here than I had in South Carolina. Standard of living...

Hurricanes and all the other things are way overrated in TV news. Hose where I live - the worst hurricane knocked down just the balcony lamp only. As far as changing the law - they can't do it unilaterally. It is a 20 year contract between you and the government. I am not sure what 1256 is...

I live and trade in Puerto Rico. Best decisions I have made in my life. It is correct - no tax (0%), federal or state, if spending 181 days out of a year in PR. Could be even less time - as long as total PR days a calendar year are more than total US mainland days (With some other times...

I understand the interplay of the different instruments that are all tied to each other. WHat I was not sure about - is 1) Which one of those instruments is THE first to change - that automatically affects others, if there is such. and 2) Any courses, videos - that go over real market examples...

I 100% agree with you on those pieces of advices - having right way to search it. I am already trying that. In case someone has already invented the bicycle - I wanted to tap into that. Good example is the "Encyclopedia of Chart patterns" - by Bulkowski - that I own, that pretty much covers...

I could not agree with you more SunTrader. I have reached that >> 10,000 hours expertise in one of the other fields and I can totally relate to that. However, I have had a handful of key advices, pearls, mentor suggestions (took 30 seconds), to "open the third eye" for me - that definitely...

Haha, I knew that if you were a pro trader - you would catch that 0.1%. Agree it is high. The 0.1% is adjusted to the subset of customers whose gain per year is > than 99.9% of customers, so effective total customer percentage would be a few extra zeros after period. But good catch. Just for...

I have to agree with Sig on the point of the chances of it are low (but as henry76 said - they are not zero). Naive and not naive - are somewhat subjective terms - different in each person's brain (nothing wrong with that). HOwever, chances are indeed not zero, and the more your account grows -...

I already got a similar call from one of the biggest brokers triggered by my account balance/growth, offering wealth advisors, etc. That tells me that they definitely have radars set up on their end for X amount of balance/growth. After that -as long as there is a greedy human being on the...

Amazing discussion... thank you sir :)

I have heard about Renaissance Technologies, just did not know the name of their fund :). THANK YOU. Many guys have responded helpfully here, but you have really defined my expectation what I was asking for. I may "look novice", but trust me, I have my share of success and knowledge as well...

Thanks Never2old. I don't get it if some folks here are having a bad day, don't have a dog at home to beat, and volunteer to be life coach here. I am very discrete in my request, and I appreciate anyone's time taken to briefly give me an advice to the point - not about life and other matters...

Love this forum, Collective wisdom... thank you

Again, no need to be passive aggressive. 74 or 73, I asked a simple question. If you find it redundant, just carry-on.
