I’m thinking of opening a TD Ameritrade account for investing - does anyone use this/have any feedback? For reference, I recently graduated and have no prior investing experience, so any feedback on investing is appreciated :)

I use TD for my Roth and a regular brokerage account. No issues noted for me.

Also, congratulations on graduating! Cheers!

Nothing wrong with TD but if simple buy and hold is all you want, the simplicity of Fidelity may be better fit. TD has solid trading platform but you have no use for it and it has a learning curve

Highly recommend Schwab, which is merging with TD. Unlimited atm fees rebated with Schwab, pretty awesome.

Hello Fishes, I have a Job offer from Cisco and Verizon(VDSI).

Cisco CTC - 16.2LPA , Fixed - 15.1LPA - Cisco TAC role.

Verizon data services llc - CTC 18LPA , Fixed - 16.1LPA

YOE - 6.5 Years
CCTC - 7.2 LPA
Tech - Networking and Security

Conflicted between both as I believe Cisco has a better brand value and great company to work for. But the offer from Verizon is competitive.

Is it a good idea to renegotiate with Cisco based on current offer from Verizon. Please share your thoughts.

I’m 25 and have found a duplex I’m considering purchasing as a rental property. Planning on renting both units and have the cash to make the down payment without an issue. My cash flow analysis has a payback period of 3 years for my down payment and a 13 year payback period for the whole investment. I think financially it makes sense. My question is, is it realistic for a 25 year old young professional to handle dealing with all the extra curricular’s that come with owning a rental property ?
