I use a lot of different platforms everyday. And with these platforms come different referral links and referral incentives.  Usually these never get clicked and I am just left with a dusty link that no one wants to give a try. Today thought, I got a...

Yes, as always these HSA and 401(k) posts are delayed. I get the statements a few days late. Hopefully this doesn't confuse people and make them think I am a time wizard. But for my own purposes, it can be frustrating to have to wait a few days to se...

A rather bloody Monday this morning. But none the less I put forward my $10 in M1 Finance as usual and bought whatever dip I could find.  Today I purchased into one holding with all the idle cash I was holding on M1. This means that the specific hold...

You all know I am a dividend investor. Anytime a company pays out a dividend, I get paid. Essentially, it's another payday for me beyond my day job. Because of this, I invest in stock/funds that pay out generous and sustainable dividends. I prefer to...

We finally had a down day! It was a bit more extreme than I would have liked for a single day but let's see how long a steady down trend can last.  M1 Finance  Over a $100 loss for the taxable portfolio today. Not the biggest down day by a long shot....

I'm a day late on this post as well, but to be fair, the transactions didn't appear until today!  So I have another taxable portfolio that I have with Fidelity. It is in one of their Fidelity Go accounts. This one is not as large as my M1 Finance por...
