I've lost count long ago. However, i can guarantee you that, as always, Quinn will have a reason why he thinks this thread is sufficiently different from his other forum threads. Nevertheless, his Forum posts continue to generate likes which makes me think it is time to join the many others who no longer participate on HD.
Colleges of all sizes, including the one I taught at went on spending sprees in the 20-teens that they claimed were necessary to keep up with their competitors. While our school now has new dorms, cafeteria, and an activity building with state of the art equipment it also had to layoff 25% of its faculty and staff in the past two years. Glad I retired in 2019.
Banks and brokerage usually have payable on death (POD) designations (including contingencies) that legally take priority over wills. Most also allow for different proportions to different beneficiarirs. We did find it more of a hassle to do this with Chase than with other institutions.
I knew that eventually you would make a comment that would make it clear that this thread is on the same level as all of your other criticisms of the behaviors of others that you don't approve of.
While I can understand taking pride in what one has accomplished I fail to see why the gyrations of one's investments should affect one's sense of pride or dismay.
At least we can agree that your notion of "mean"is simplistic, although I could be wrong given your penchant for argument. My original point was that your concept of "means" was too obvious and simplistic to be of any practical value.
Do you honestly think his proposed definition will change anyone's contributions to their retirement svgs, especially given that "means" is such a subjective word that is used in many different ways?
I fail to see anything of practical value to be gained from discussing this topic, unlike numerous other non-technical articles and forum threads about the human side of money.
