Ping hoofer, sun mountain 2.5, Titleist stand bag all good options. Plenty of room for two sleeves of balls, a handful of tees, a light jacket, and a couple cans of zyn. It’s lost on me why some of you nerds need a golf bag that can accommodate a family of 4. But please don’t stop bc it’s helpful fo...
No. Sometimes there are fees associated with buying mutual funds but my intent wasn’t to say ETFs are better than mutual funds. Just a suggestion for this kid. As long as you’re not trying to stock pick and are in quality diversified funds with low fees then you’re good. But I suspect you knew that....

I posted a “looking to buy” thread on Craigslist for a concert ticket. Trying to get something last minute for less than face value. Had success doing this for years but when ticket transfers went digital, a scammer responds saying he has ticket but you Zelle the money first. I said I would Zelle ha...
