    Thank you. Unfortunately it still doesn’t answer my question but I think I will have to find another way to answer it as search is filled with advertisements posing as helpful articles. The middle two links you posted are the only links I have read that aren’t written by someone selling this...

    Retirement Costs for Elderly Parents

    where did you read that? I got similar answers but I figure there’s got to be an alternative to CCRC’s that cost as much as they do.

    There are people on this board who know what executions look like when you aren't considered a dumb customer. (i'll give you a hint - market makers hate trading with people who are smart... in fact it's like what they hire like 100 phd's in like sciences and whatever to like totally prevent. ya...

    1. the OP was not attacked at all 2. There were some very helpful responses to which he replied with nothing. 3. The other two aren’t newbies. They are option masters who spread misinformation in every thread. why do you trade the ftse? I remember it being crazy illiquid compared to the...

    How do you accelerate in a manual car?

    I love my manual transmission cars but to be honest I’m starting to convert. My auto cars are often more fun to drive than my standards. Less hassle and it’s pretty fun to click the paddle.

    I’m going to call their bond desk next week. The site required me to buy a 1000 bonds with 1000 dollars of face value. My private client guy confirmed this but it doesn’t make sense.

    Schwab is taking me for a ride!

    Etrade is requiring me to buy a 1000 bonds minimum or I have to call the bond desk for smaller size. It doesn’t feel right. That’s 1 million notional.
