Grab a broad-market index fund with the lowest fees (e.g., VTSAX), set regular purchases, and move on with your life. Avoid insurance products that claim to be investments. Avoid anything with higher-than-minimum fees or load fees.
- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 5 months ago:
I think 1-2$ per drink is the recommendation because it’s easier to remember than doing the math, and you’re more likely to drop the cash and go rather than interacting with a busy bartender more. That said, if they’re doing full service for you (food, checking in on you), you should probably tip normally, because they’re acting as a server in that case.
