I am. Just trying to get a sense of Marcus v/s Wealthfront (for savings account only). I’m not referring to just chasing the highest APY

Yeah. This is what I was thinking of too.

Also how do these compare relative to HYSA in Wealthfront, Betterment.

What are some things people forget to do when they buy their first house or that you wish you did? I just went under contract for my first house. I’ve been looking for a year but the whole house coming to market, offer, etc. happened so fast that I’m almost shocked (literally 2 days). Looking for practical things I may not have thought of (e.g., clean house before move in, change locks, update drivers license address) or just tips/things you wish you would’ve known!

I ordered a Tesla model 3 SR in April and I am able to take delivery this weekend, however I’m now unsure of whether it’s the right move financially. I have a lease on a 2020 BMW X3 that will end next month and was wondering if I should just buy that out and drive it for a few years. If it makes a difference I’m in SoCal so gas is $$$, but no EV charging in my apartment.

Tesla: $830/month + charging and insurance
BMW: $600/m + $150 gas + maint/insurance

Any thoughts? Is the Tesla worth it?
