|
Date: September 24th, 2018 12:01 PM Author: brass adventurous new version jew That's what bothers me. This requires an amount of effort and care that doesn't justify the payoff. At that point, you're better off having less in instruments that don't keep up with real inflation and instead have a good mix of equities that are likely to pay significantly more.

Date: September 24th, 2018 11:41 AM Author: Spruce galvanic bawdyhouse It's called a credit card doofus. Assuming you don't have shit credit, you need about two months' bare minimum expenses in cash that can be accessed same day. The rest should be in SPY, real estate, or a diversified equities portfolio.

Date: September 24th, 2018 11:30 AM Author: brass adventurous new version jew I'd rather have 2% 100% risk free and liquid. If I don't need to touch it for a year, I'll throw it in dividend ETFs. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084970&forum_id=2#36877106) |

Date: September 24th, 2018 12:09 PM Author: brass adventurous new version jew So basically burning $2k/year in cash by keeping it in a 0% acct.
That said, I'm not sure about keeping even $100k in a 2% because real inflation is probably 3-4%. |

No way a person has never heard of those big name banks or thinks a savings account is risky ... unless this is code for not wanting to have to “save” money - savings accounts aren’t really different from checking in terms of liquidity, tbh.
