Robinhood is easy and cheap. But I hate how long it takes to move money.

I usually use Vanguard. Yes there are fees, but I like my investments all in one place as much as possible and I like to purchase my investments when I want, not wait sever days for $$ to land into my Robinhood

I use Fidelity and Vanguard. Fidelity has better research software while Vanguard does a great job providing guidance on what to buy. I do not invest directly in stocks though. Some mutual funds and mostly ETFs / index funds for me

I read stocks as socks and laughed

I use Titan Invest for all my single-stock exposure, then some in a muni bond ETF and low cost Vanguard S&P 500 ETF

SoFi

Vanguard

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC rescinding an offer, given the market condition. The offer letter I have received seems to be generic and doesn't look it is for a specific project. The role seems to be generic. I am a little hesitant, specially because of HR's behaviour who doesn't seem to care responding to my queries and ignores all my emails and calls. Any advice?
