re: How to determine the cost to sell your mutual fund investments? - Skippy1013
There should not be any cost. The closing price at the end of the day you put in the sell order will be used. Closing price times your number of shares, that dollar amount will be your proceeds. If you have this in a brokerage account, that dollar amount will show up in your “Sweep” cash account....

re: Transplanting small bushes - Skippy1013
I have done it. You need to dig a really big area around the bush and under the bush, so you can get the whole root system out, and do not cut any of the roots, or as few as possible. In the new hole, make it big enough to spread the roots around. Fill with the old soil, some cow manure and add s...

re: “Rates will come down, just re-fi then.” Why do people keep saying this in today’s world? - Skippy1013
They will come down, we just don’t know the timetable. It will be after the FED completely destroys the economy, unemployment rises and homes get foreclosed on, then the FED will always lower rates to stimulate the economy and they will buy their own Treasuries, causing those rates to go down and th...

re: Car insurance question - Skippy1013
If she is at fault and the other person left, why are the police even involved? Never involve the police if you are at fault, that needs to be initiated by the other party. Don't do a report, file a claim and say they were at fault and fled the scene probably because they had no insurance or had ...

re: What to do with an annuity - Skippy1013
Most annuities allow you to take 10% out per year penalty free. Do that, take $16,000 out for 3 years until your surrender charges go away, then you can move the rest. However, having an annuity along with various other products in your portfolio can be good. It’s a tax deferred product. First, I...

re: Risk of being listed as a driver on a vehicle - Skippy1013
It seems like that insurance agent is manipulating the way the policy is priced by listing an older driver, opposed to the proper driver who’s in their early 20’s, simply to be more price competitive. It’s a lie, so don’t participate and look for an insurance agent who is honest with you and the com...

re: Saltwater Intrusion Preparation - Skippy1013
This will not be an “insurance event” because it’s excluded from coverage. Rust/Corrosion/Deterioration of your property is excluded in all Homeowners Insurance Policies. It’s also an “expected” event that would not happen if you turn off the water to the appliance. Note: I also think these plumb...
