Anyone used Marcus by Goldman before for their savings accounts? It's currently at 2.25% interest. Not asking in terms of trade-off vs investment accounts but rather just for small liquid funds.

I do! Would highly recommend it. Very user-friendly. I put my emergency fund there. They also have a great 13-month no-penalty CD at 2.35% if you want to park some money for a bit while having flexibility to break the CD if needed.

Did. Terrible customer service if you need a fee refunded. They also stop crediting interest in the day you initiate a pull from another bank not the date when it actually pulls out of their account.

Would stay away from their childish looking bank set up. Recommend purepoint for highest savings rate. Their no penalty is 2.5 percent

Use Citi’s Accelerate savings account - 2.36%, easy wires online and through their app, tons of locations nationwide to cash out/manage your account

Orion federal credit union. 4%
You can open unlimited accounts - each account is capped at 30k. Yes, you get deposit insurance.

Automated transfers in/out on a monthly basis. 8 amazon gift card transactions for 50c each.

This is the highest risk free return available from any source I can find.

Vanguard money markets will always beat a bank account.

VMMXX is paying 2.45%

Depending on your tax bracket and state of residence, VUSXX at 2.38% may be a better deal.

Here in CA I use VCTXX, which only pays 1.32% but is completely tax exempt, which for me is equivalent to 2.6%

Not true. Purepoint financial cd paying 2.5 percent was paying 2.6 percent before

That’s a great rate and choice. You might also consider money market type funds that can be bought in any investment account that pay 2.48 and more and not have to go through trivia of opening another account to get a good saving account rate.

Has anyone ever heard of this type of real estate private equity fund structure:

-One LLC, so only one PPM

-Multiple investments that investors can determine whether or not they want to invest in

-Ability for the Sponsor/Fund to invest directly, indirectly and in equity, debt, Pref, etc.

HNY all! I have multiple rollover and traditional IRAs, as well as a solo 401k.

I’ve also not done much contributing in the last few years due to purchasing an apartment and saving for renovations. Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
