Neither. Avoid the Coinbase trap. Use Gemini

like

What's the trap?

like

Coinbase pro has much lower fees

Coinbase for super simple, easy to use functionality. Can sign up super quick and buy near immediately. High Fees (3%)

Coinbase Pro for more advanced trading functions (e.g., limit buys), need to KYC to buy, low fees (0.5% or less)

Once you sign up for Coinbase, you use that same login and password for Coinbase Pro. Best bet is to take a Coinbase referral, buy the $100 to get $10 in the referral bonus, then do rest of buying on Coinbase Pro.

Gemini - right down the middle with ease of use, middle tier fees (1.5%), bonus that you can store your crypto in an ‘Earn account’ to earn interest on your crypto.

Happy to share referral codes to either, and to answer any questions!

As for purchasing > Gemini has more coins and lower fees.

As for custodial risk, BlockFi uses Gemini, so push

As for interest accounts > BlockFi has been around longer and offers interest on stable coins. Gemini is available for NY residents, and offers a more wide variety of crypto. Gemini just launched their interest accounts like 2 weeks ago... so can’t really compare beyond that

I know I took out the loans and I should repay them and I’m normally fiscally conservative and against giving out free money. But I am hoping student loans get completely cancelled. It would greatly boost the economy if people do not have them hanging over their heads. However, forgiving what is currently there won’t help long term if the predatory practices around student loans aren’t fixed along with soaring tuition prices and salaries for administrators.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get into real estate investing. Some of the books I've read have talked about buying a multi unit property and utilizing investors to get the necessary capital. Does anyone have experience in getting investors? How do you identify investors who may be interested? Are there any sites where you can invest in or post investment opportunities?
Thank you in advance.

I switched companies this past September and my new firm doesn’t match until after a year. They also match on a per period basis. With that being said, it makes sense for me to hold off on contributing to my 401k at all until October, and then contribute enough to max it with my Oct-Dec paychecks, correct? I’ll miss out on the gains for 9 months, but don’t want to miss out on the free money either.
