[quote]are you allowed to use your own router or do you have to use theirs?[/quote] You have to use their gateway-router as it has ATT certs which are needed to connect to the service. There are a couple different ATT gateways but you should be able to put it in bridge mode which would let you...

Fidelity is superior as a financial services company. Vanguard investment products used to be clearly superior but not so such a big difference as before as there are so many low cost index options now. Though I still like to use them for my very long term holdings. I use Fidelity for all m...

[quote]Taxable account. Supplementing retirement. Timeframe of 20-30 years[/quote] Whether you lump sum or DCA will be a blip on the radar with time frame that long. If you're still unsure, do half now. Then invest the other half in equal installments over the next 6 months or a year. ...

I've been looking into this myself as the new house will have DirecTv installed in a couple weeks. From what I understand, if you get a Genie 2 it can support a total of 8 clients where 7 can be active at any one time. I believe it will also support 2 4K clients at the same time (as part of the ...

[quote]Terminating to keystone jacks in the can would be silly. It’s another point of possible failure. RJ45 in the can if the switch is in there. Keystone at wall plates.

I'm about 3/4 of the way there and I hope to join the "2 comma club" in a couple years when I turn 45. That will give me 10 years to hit my number of 2 million by 55. Also, I don't count house equity as it isn't liquid....

If you've never seen this site/video about the deaths in World War 2, take a look. It's both enlightening and sobering. ~70 million dead.. These numbers are just mind boggling in today's world and would make more sense in a horror movie. It's crazy how many Russian military deaths there w...

In my various Fido accounts, the core account option is either SPAXX or FZFXX. Those two and FDRXX have about the same yield of 1.4%. Though, I don't like alot of money just sitting around in cash/money market accounts. I keep my emergency fund like this. 1/3 in FZFXX and 2/3 in short term cor...
