Some questions about decisions in my 401k distributions and possibly rolling into a self directed fund
Many years ago I had to set up a 401k for my company. I was stunned at the level of fees charged. Companies pay some, all, or none of those fees depending on the company. And these fees are very hidden from the employee. It’s hard to find them. As a result, over the years whenever I left a company I’d roll my 401k to a rollover IRA at a low cost broker, like Vanguard or Fidelity or Schwab. There is one IRS approved feature you lose by not having funds in a 401k vs a rollover IRA, but I can’t recall what it was or whether it’s important. I don’t think it was. Maybe someone on here knows. Once you’re in a rollover IRA at Fidelity, you can invest in anything with much lower fees.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
Which will somehow include all of our mutual funds and ETFs, because it will immediately shoot into the S&P 500, just like Tesla and other overvalued crap heeps.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
So I’m trying to figure out who gets fucked in twitter getting sold to Elon’s company. I guess the original investors and lenders that bought Twitter have their positions rolled over into this bigger entity. Given that, whoever is investing in his AI company just bought an inflated asset. But given that the ai company is also an inflated asset, it doesn’t really matter. So, in summary

I caught the cancer
I hope you read this post. My BIL had a rare sarcoma cancer in his leg many years ago. Big bump. All of the Doctors he visited in Austin said amputation was probably necessary. He finally went to Mayo in MN and they not only saved his leg, they suggested a completely different protocol for treatment as well. He wore a backpack delivering chemo for almost a full year. It was insane. But he kept his leg and has been cancer free for a long time. I can’t remember if he got a consult at MDA or why he didn’t get treated there. I will ask him.

Texas Offseason 2025 - Archmania Is Upon Us
While Satya will always be Satya, it is interesting how these days it seems like it’s more difficult to get a handle on whether your team will have good talent or not on the field in the fall. Between the portal and players playing earlier in their college careers, there’s more uncertainty about the quality of players coming in or sitting on the bench. I looked at the offensive and defensive depth charts and there are quite a few question marks that should be very good, or great, but need to see it on the field to be sure.

I have to get from Heathrow to Kings Cross station. I assume I can just get the tickets when I land? Any issues or confusing thing to worry about? I only have a two hour window to catch a train at Kings Cross to Edinburgh.

Nevermind. Saw link above.- America's Foreign Policy & Other Shit Going On Around the World thread
Interesting thing I noticed while at a port city last week. A large strange looking boat was pulling out of port. There were government workers of all types watching it leave. It was clear that it was highly unusual for it to have been in this port and its leaving was also an unusual event. When I did some research on it, I realized it is a Navy ship that lays underwater fuel cables in advance of combat operations. It is a very shady ship. So shit is about to happen in a significant way. This went out into the Pacific, not the Atlantic. It was really weird.- 2025 transfer portal

Ah there’s the missing piece.- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
With the women’s basketball 5 star picking OU over Texas it left me with a question about corporate NIL. Do the shoe companies and other corporate NIL companies offer different NIL compensation based upon where an athlete decides to enroll? Because that five star player will be worth a helluva lot more at Texas to them than at OU, I would think. She’s working her deal with Jordan and I would have thought he’d pay her more at Texas.- The poster formerly known as ztejas (update)
Without change, your situation is not going to end well, and it sure seems like the end is getting closer. I pray your behavior doesn’t end up affecting other lives too.- UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
I’m hopeful Miller is like Sark, in that he had some positive past performances, but with some significant questions about his ability to win at the level Texas requires. Sark so far has worked out really well, although he hasn’t yet shown he’s good enough to get over the hump of winning it all. Maybe CDC and the decision makers know what they are doing.- The Dallas Stars 2024-2025 Season Thread: Win Now, Talk Later
