    Retail vs institutional compare to credit union vs banks

    A credit union is essentially a customer of a national bank. All the credit unions customers get lumped together into one account at the bank. This might be news to some of you but that is how it is. Do all brokerage firms go direct to the market, or are some firms 'customers' of institutional...

    How to sell paintings and prints?

    Over the last few years I've bought a bunch of paintings and prints. I bought them just because I liked them and they were cheap. It turns out some of them are worth money. One was estimated at 30,000 because all the other prints along with the original have been destroyed. This one is damaged...

    Your all time favorite cell phone?

    I'm not talking about which has the latest features but which phone gave you the most satisfaction. Was it the demonic red glow of the original brick style phones? Was it the satisfying way the Nokia slide 6700 slid into place? For me its the Prada II. It has a really nice white on black user...

    General purpose languages with excel-like syntax and not obsessive compulsive about white space?

    Well, thats the point. For me it improves readability. I like it one 'statement' per line if possible, if its too big for that then I'll break it up if I have to.

    General purpose languages with excel-like syntax and not obsessive compulsive about white space?

    Cool. Actually it has almost nothing to do with excel. I just like that style.

    Trade idea

    I'm skeptical but you guys might be right. I found this which is out performing the market, but could be driven entirely by SJWs buying on wishful thinking. https://www.motifinvesting.com/motifs/no-glass-ceilings#/overview

    Trade idea

    This is to long term for me but if someone else wants to research it... It would be interesting to compare a ten year average of price movement of companies after they get a female ceo, with a ten year average of indices over the same periods.

    I'm in the same boat right now, but I might make it happen anyway. Thanks for the idea. What about robot lawn mowers? They are not insanely expensive but a little pricey and a luxury item. They are not really cool enough for most people to search for them unless actually thinking about buying...

    What do wealthy people google that average people don't?

    Yachts and expensive watches don't count because lower income people google this just to look at the pictures and pretend. What are things that a wealthy person (maybe 500k+/yr) would google that average people would not?

    If you're not with me, you're against me

    When I was younger I thought this was a very selfish and destructive perspective. Now that I'm more experienced I realize it is pretty much true. People are hateful. If they are not actively cooperating with you, they are against you. They might not be trying hard to hurt you, but they are...
