Dude from BBDO on LinkedIn flexing about how many SB ads they have this year. Dude, get a grip! 2/3 come from FCB / agencies acquired last month. It’s like 🎃 counting Venezuela and Greenland as part of the USA and including it in “America’s places you should vist this summer”.

My parents FA set up an ira for me while I was in college. I funded the 5500 max for 2 years. Now I have my own Roth IRA and fund that. Just realized that ira that was opened when I was in school was not a roth. Converted in and now will have to pay taxes on the gain (15k of gains). Should Wells Fargo cover this or is this a lost cause for them messing up
