My first car was a manual. it is fun in sporty cars but living in a high traffic city, I wouldn't get another one. Newer automatics are now actually more fuel efficient and can accelerate faster so manuals don't have that advantage anymore. I do like that newer cars have brake hold feature now so the car doesn't drift back when stopped on a steep hill though because that was a con of manual. I think manuals are still more reliable and are much cheaper to repair if it does break also.

TopicOut of these handguns, what should I buy?
Nu_Titan
04/04/20 3:03:04 AM

M&P 2.0 is probably the best bang for your buck (they go on sale all the time). I prefer them over the G17/G19 but you should go to a store and at least hold different guns to see which one feels better in your hands since everyone has different preferences.

Glocks main advantage is accessories/mods selection, cheap mags, and part availability. M&P 2.0 has a rougher grip (which I like), more natural grip angle (imo) and has better factory sights. CZ P10c/f is also an alternative to the M&P 2.0 or Glock with a better stock trigger (imo).

If cost doesn't matter and you are sure you are not going to carry, the Sig P226 is a great choice.

Better option for pure home defense would probably be a shotgun though.

TopicITT: You explain why inheritance/estate tax shouldn't be taxed at like 95%
Nu_Titan
03/31/20 5:56:08 PM

I think what should be fixed is how things like equities/stock and property are taxed after death. example, if someone bought $50,000 Amazon stock at an average of $100 per share several years ago and just died, the person who inherits the stock is only taxed on profits based the price of the stock of the day they inherited it. This means about $975,000 (AMZN is ~$1950 per share now) would not be taxed under current laws. This same thing applies to property values.

What brokers do you all use?

I use Fidelity for my retirement account and Charles Schwab for my other investments.

A lot of brokers are now commission free so I would just go with one of the big names (Schwab, Vanguard, Fidelity, TD Ameritrade, Interactive Brokers, ect). I think a lot of newer investors use Robinhood since they like the app (phone) but Robinhood has crash a few times in the past couple of weeks due to high traffic and their customer service doesn't compare to the big brokers from what I heard. TD Ameritrade has my favorite desktop/pc app called Think or Swim which is great to use for day/swing trading if you learn how to use the tools.
