Or you could use an escalation clause. Go above the highest bid by a certain dollar amount and cap the limit.

Basically, you have an MBA.

This guy apparently runs a company that has millions and takes advantage of inefficiencies. He's not creating the fake articles but he's using what it creates to his advantage. From what I understand, he will run the price down if there is low liquidity and trigger your stop losses and somehow make money doing it.

Went down the comments looking for a Windows version. No luck. :(

I don't think there is any rule or law requiring companies to hard delete customer data. I would bet that most companies never delete based on know your customer, anti-laundering, and other SEC regulations.

They were overpaying. Everyone knew it. Just outrageous quotes compared to even the other online companies buying up houses.

I applied years back and now get them once in a while when they decided to go full WFM maybe 6 months back. They make the email seem like a manager is interested in your skillset for a specific role, etc but it is clearly an automated template.

Yeah, I think I'll pass on that one. He did apologize for the tweet.

No, but the crazy stuff sure seems to be coming back into play again. There was an article out a few days back about 10? year old who made 400k with a set of pixelated whale NTF's.

Give me a better option without suggesting Robinhood. Kraken is double and Coinbase Pro is x7. I'm U.S. based.

The first tier level is 0.0750% / 0.0750% (maker/taker) if you opt-in for your fees in BNB.

I really have to question how Binance is pulling off basically no fee trading. There's something not right as if they may be hit with pretty hard regulation. Add in the Brian Brooks lasting two months as CEO of .US and Catherine Coley's short stint (and disappearance). I would transfer some of my funds over since they seemed to cleanup the customer service nightmare but it seems like too much unknown risk.

The quality is very poor and I don’t think they verify age.

Moody doesn’t seem to care about the abuse or victims that is rampant in the industry, she just wants to get paid.

There are laws in the U.S. which prevents someone from qualifying for full medicare benefits of, let's say for example, nursing home care. There is a 5 year look-back period to verify you haven't liquidated assets or you will be penalized.
