    A cousin carry a $200k heloc at 10%; He has some family matters (unsure of the details) but ask if he should pay off the $200k heloc or keep $200k to buy CD at 5% - heloc interest is 100% tax write off since it's business expense. hence $20k interest/year tax write off and $10k cd interest...

    Greedy Investor

    Is it wishful thinking or greedy of me to ask my financial advisor to get us a higher return than the index SP500? The financial advisor says that "he can help me and manage my portfolio" . If not, what is the point of paying them? I could just stick with what I already have.... FA can't even...

    S&P 500 Prediction 2024

    So you noticed that up until October 31st, SP500 was around 8%ish. November and December are miracle months. Why, Who, How?? Idk. With that being said, I have a feeling that 2024 will be filled with surprises, with ups and downs like a roller coaster until the last day. Prediction: 8% for...
