Good vid, enjoyed it. I've posted a quick vid of my Betterment returns, as of today 4-11-17 time weighted return is 7.1%. I'll post periodic updates for anyone interested. I think robo investing makes a lot of sense, AI and machine learning type solutions are powerful. I still have the bulk of my money with a traditional provider, but based on my initial testing will be swinging more of my portfolio over. The returns are in line / slightly better and less expense.
Betterment is going to be absolutely huge. I'm so happy to have found them. I discovered them when I was 18, five years ago! I loved their stuff then and I'm so pleased to see it's coming along so well. I know the future when I see it and because I understand Betterment and what they're really all about I know that my future at least financial is secure. Betterment is genius. No other company is going to be able to beat them. Betterment is an idea whose time has arrived my friends! Invest now!
Although I've had some problems with orders with Robinhood I love them, I'm a day-trader and they save me a lot of money and most of the times my executions aren't bad and I play the most volatile stocks every day... Robinhood is the future
instead of talking shit in your comments, just do not watch, and if you must reply, then try the app and see the outcome
ya'll
Would you rather have a free service that makes money or a company that's not intelligent enough to do the same thing and give me a free service? I guess it's all in the marketing.
Bad interview, the host didn't say ya'll enough.
Another BS. He says that Brokerages give advise to drive volume and thus commissions. Does he even know regulation that Online Brokers are not permitted to that. These guys are in a different world that is not real.
Did the Robinhood guy say he has 1 Million Retail Brokerage Accounts. OMG. How is that even truw?. That is more then the total number of new Brokerage accounts opened in the US in 2015.
The Silicon Valley like to listen to itself. Robinhood is a solid failure. Its makes no money and it has no future. Giving something for free is not a strategy. DO NOT OPEN ACCOUNTS WITH THEM.
Robinhood is a great app! Free trading is the future. I just wish they didn't limit high-volatility stocks: like he said, every decision you ever make contains risk, but that's your choice to make.
