I'm 65, 2 heart attacks. My wife will be getting 2 hip surgeries in the next year. I DO NOT want to do spreads!! Our accounts may not be touched for months if I die. A bank's trust department will handle our assets, if and when it's time for us to walk away. Responsible kid lives far...

Already did it...Great minds think alike!! If QQQ drops 20% I'll add to it...

So I sold a business a few days ago. I'm flush with cash...I don't know where to put it. Some has gone to CDs, some to the kids, much in stocks (think Boeing and Loews...Covered calls), and some to taxes. Still have much to invest. Taking my time. Want your thoughts on buying Apple (AAPL)...

A quick read if you are interested...

To answer your questions... 1. The airlines may get another bailout. I do not think congress will give Marriott or Wynn bailouts. The employees of those companies...Yes, but give to those two, people would be pissed. During the winter we will come into cold and flu season. Add to that...

I do not see people traveling unless they HAVE to. Sunbirds may forgo their trips to sunny areas this year. Marriott Int. looks over valued to me. No spring training, very little Las Vegas, no football, baseball, hockey, basketball fans going to other cities to see their teams play...Same...

Just saw on Yahoo! Finance...All your eggs. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/robinhood-users-had-accounts-looted-172938956.html

Value investor here...I read closely Berkshire Hathaway adds and subtracts. I question their every move!! I also go though Royce Value Trust's adds. They find value where others see clutter. Same with all the Royce family of funds (RVT, RGT, RMT). I will try and pick off the value fund's...

I am on the other side of you...I "sell to open" covered calls. When I feel like I have bought a good stock, I will be willing to option it away for a 8-10% annualized return (option money, dividend, price increase). So when I see a wide spread, I'll do a very basic thing. Assuming the stock...

Conservative investor here...I would never put all my eggs in one basket. 10-15% at Schwab, 10-15% at Fidelity. Yeah, I know IB is great and all. I want to sleep well at night. Have accounts at Wells Fargo Bank (checking, savings, safe deposit box). Do I like Wells Fargo?? Nothing to write...

I know people on here say how valuable TOS is to the Schwab/TDA. What is valuable is assets under management!! Schwab Bank is a cash cow!! And yes, retaining assets is very important. It is what is killing the full service brokers (Morgan Stanley). As you're having generational pass down of...

If I was a retiree with no tie downs, Las Vegas may be the way to go!! I'd wait till the middle of winter...No buyers. Maybe wait for another wave of Covid-19. If you could work from home it could be a nice choice. It does NOT appeal to me. But for many...It looks like a great value...

Was watering the front yard...This came to mind. Wait for the next Covid wave (not wishing harm on anyone...But it is what it is). Then buy Marriott Int. (MAR) under $80. Do a covered call on it. I'll hold value while I wait. No messy real estate to manage, no Boeing headwinds to deal with...

Yeah, I know they are the worst of two evils...I get it. Buy QQQ and sleep well. But IF YOU HAD TO BUY...That is the question I put forth. Not easy...

Would like some ideas. I like to own my stocks and do covered calls on them. Have a lot of cash (retiree) and CDs are yielding nothing. I'm heavy into SLV and JO. Have made good money on those so far. Would like an EFT that may have some yield (1-2%). We pay very little in taxes, so the...

Boeing moves to Vegas!! Let's put some of those hotel-motel management degrees (University of Nevada Las Vegas) to use!!!

So if I told you that you have $400,000. and you had to buy either 2 condos/townhouses in the Las Vegas area or $400,000. worth of Boeing stock...Which would you buy? You must hold onto it for AT LEAST 5 years. At the end, which one do you think would make (lose) more money?? Las Vegas is...

It's strange, after 11 days no one can answer these simple questions. I have a pretty good understanding of how markets work. How discount brokers make their money...I own stock in Schwab. But, what usually happened in this situation?? Anyone with knowledge...

About 10 years ago I had a fat finger. Royce Global Trust (RGT)...I thought I put it in for 1,000 share...It was for 10,000. I had the money in the account. At about 3,200 shares I noticed what I did...Thought I would get creamed!! I've made a good profit on this one...Go figure.

Charles Schwab became the 7th largest bank in the US!! While you wait for your trade to clear (I think 3 business days) the money is held in their bank. They loan out the money and make major profits from YOUR money. Just another avenue of income...Oh and while you wait to trade, your extra...
