Re: is anyone investing with Robin Hood? robinhood.com - Yesterday

I use it for day trading. Works well for my purposes. I don't appear to incur any fees whether buying or selling. I've had my account for almost exactly a year (opened 8/18/17) - and I am up 41%. I buy/sell mostly large cap stocks. I believe you need to have a minimum of $25k for instant settlements.

Re: FBI fires Peter Strzok over anti-Trump texts..... - 2 days ago

QuoteSpeedyNo 'crime', just a firing that will be appealed and likely overturned. Hmmm, maybe not: "Because Strzok is a senior-level FBI employee, and because the FBI’s No. 2 official directed his firing, he has few realistic avenues left to get back his job. It’s unclear if he plans to pursue legal action against the bureau."

Russia ? Yeah, death sentence... No 'crime', just a firing that will be appealed and likely overturned. But his career will be going nowhere within the FBI.

Quotegraylocks instead of "do I drive" maybe it's time to think "should I get off the fossil fuel roller coaster and buy a Volt BEV." In under five years most new cars will have some sort of battery-only mode for shorter trips, say 20 miles or so. And shortly thereafter I believe most two car families will have one battery-only vehicle. If I could buy a BEV that had decent

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time. Necessary fall out. If this is all the Trumpanistas can do, then they are toothless. Let Pres. Trump crow to his base for a day or so as Mueller marches onward.

I actually filled my Volt up once this summer - yesterday. Almost nine gallons. That should easily get me through until the cold weather season (at 15°F and lower it runs the ICE.). Electric rates are steady and have been for years.
