ND: Robinhood offering 3% Checking and Savings Accounts

[untouchableobu]

Just a heads up to my fellow Dawg fans. I currently use them as my investment platform (not for my 401K or Roth IRA), and they just announced this today. I've already signed up. They are SPIC insured for up to $250k cash and $250k securities.

Thanks. I trade with them, but 3% is really good

Yeah, I'm currently getting 2.5% at a credit union here in TX, but I'll be moving my money over to this. I signed up but there is a wait list.

Thanks. Was just looking for another savings spot.

Not even beating inflation after taxes. Why is this good? ‍♂️

I’m honestly not sure what to tell you if you don’t think that’s good. It’s the best thing currently in the market for checking/savings.

Here you go. Also, why was this moved to the Chat? I posted in the dawgvent because I wanted it there.

Thanks, but I was joking. Plus, it was way "ND". Sorry.

@Radi Nabulsi is this standard procedure? Please ask your mods to use some consistency and move my post back to the forum it was originally posted in. I’ve been on this site for 13 years now and never had this issue.

You think you’re too good for us? We don’t need no stinking 3% checking. Chat is where the big money hangs.

Ha! Didn’t mean that at all. I’ve just never posted on the chat in my life and am unfamiliar with the posters here.

If you have a problem with the move, take it up with @Anthony Dasher

It was WAY non-dawg. Not sure what you're upset about...

Edit: It's borderline inappropriate advertising, fwiw.

You should come by more often. Tell them you know me.

There are plenty of other “way ND” threads on the dawgvent right now. And I didn’t realize it was inappropriate to point other Dawg fans to the highest interest available right now.

 

[deadduckdawg]

So, now I know who’s been nuking my pearls.

Ok @Anthony Dasher what is the criteria for a thread being moved to the Chat from the Vent? Would love to hear the explanation since it’s clearly inconsistently applied.

Had absolutely nothing to do with sports and was borderline advertising

If non sports yes. This was so non-sports it wasn’t even funny...sorry man but we have the distression to move posts that don’t fit the board

Then you and some other mods need to get busy moving some threads. Take a gander at the Bent right now.

Man, this ain't like the Scarlet Letter or something. It's a very literate and cerebral joint. It's not like your post got moved to Letters to Hustler.

Nope, but all are certainly in danger. You're ignoring the "borderline advertising", which is really what sparked the move, imo.

Ok so we’re not allowed to tip people off to a good deal? That’s really silly if not. I have no personal gain from this. Just trying to help folks out.

That is correct...id advise using Twitter or Facebook

 

[untouchableobu]

That is correct.

Ok that is good to know. I’ll keep that in mind in the future.

Dude, we leave ND threads that are entertaining. We leave ND threads that are sports related. Your thread was neither. Was it potentially helpful? Sure. That's why it wasn't deleted. It wasn't a judgement on you as a person...it was an editorial decision, which is very much in-bounds for decisions on moderating any board.

Then you may want to move the thread on there right now that is advertising for Fox NFL.

See "sports related" and "editorial decision", above.

Y'all gonna give Chat an inferiority complex. Like living downriver from the Clergy and Aristocracy and getting their thundermugs dumped upstream from you every morning. How bout a little sensitivity here?
