Dress shoes usually have a metal torsion strap along the middle of the shoe connecting the heel with the toe area. This can set off the detectors. There are some dress men’s shoes that don’t have this bar like rock port who do decent brogues perfect for travelling.

Yeah, my shoes beep at BOS but not at ORD or AUS.

Yep...past two weeks this has happened

Yup went through my home airport in my boots and never had a problem before this week yes.

I have a pair that only beeps at JFK, nowhere else.. never been able to explain it other than their system is more sensitive i guess

I get this. You’d really think that these things were calibrated to some sort of standard.

My belt beeps at some airports and not at others.

Hi all, I am trying to DCA bi-weekly into Vanguard ETFs, (VO, VTI etc). It seems like Fidelity does not support auto buying of non-Fidelity ETFs. So I was wondering which of these options you think is best?

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.
