Royale with Cheese

I'm saving up for the home opener. I have Delta credit for the Browns game last year that was moved. Since my flights are paid for and that's saving me about $1,000....I'm getting 1st row tickets right at the 50.

Mecole Hardman averages about 35 or so catches a season. KC thought so little of him they let him go. Cobb is 33 now and in the last few seasons, is averaging about 35 catches a season. Corey Davis in his career averages 45 catches a season. The Titans thought so little of him and let him go. Alan Lazard in his career averages 33 catches a season. The Packers thought so little of him they let him go. It looks like you believe if a team doesn't resign someone, they think very little of them....I'm just using your thought process. James Cook was I believe 9 or so carries away from leading the NFL in yards per carry. It was 5.7 ypc by the way. Damien Harris has 20 TD's in the last 2 seasons. Since you pointed out we have a RB that hasn't finished a full season....how many has Breece Hall finished? Yours are not assumptions? Are you assuming Aaron Rodgers will return to 2021 or are you guaranteeing it?

Not for people on this board.

I didn't say he's the answer. I clearly stated he's not one of our top options at the position. I clearly stated he's our speed guy. Quit putting words in my mouth. McKenzie had 6 more catches and 1 more TD and you're acting that's an insurmountable feat to get lol.

Its a Bills message board, a lot of players get talked up after the draft.

Isiah McKenzie had 42 catches, 442 yards and 4 TD’s last year. Harty was injured last year so but in 2021, he had 36 catches, 570 yards and 3 TD’s. You’re right. 6 more catches and 130 less receiving yards and 1 more TD is way too lofty expectations to match McKenzie. McKenzie had Josh Allen throwing to him and Harty had Jameis Winston throwing to him. Which shouldn’t make a difference because Winston is just as good as Allen. Knox, Kincaid, Diggs and Davis will all get thrown to more. Probably Shakir too. I think people viewed Harty as the speed guy and not the answer guy.

I think every knows that Sherfield and Hardy are going to be the 5th and 6th options, especially since our 1st round pick is a pass catching flex TE. Who is having "lofty" expectations? Saying improvement is "lofty"?

That's my goal!

Ally Bank has a 4% yield right now on their money market. I'm going to move a good amount of money in there and keep contributing to it.

I will definitely follow up. I appreciate the responses. I've been mostly saving for the last 5 or so years and now I'm ready to invest and need to do this smart.

You hit the nail here.

I am not sure exactly what it gets me. They are going to go over the agreement with me next week. I've never worked with Financial Investors before so I have no idea what a typical process is....or if I'm being taken advantage of.

So essentially, long term investing is probably the best and smartest path?

It's $1,250 is for the advisement fee regardless if I use my IRA or not. If I'm going to play the stock and use my IRA to do it, I could just sign up for Etrade or Robin myself.

My house is in Cherokee county even though my address is Alpharetta. The Fulton county line border is literally 100 yards away...Cherokee is so much cheaper. I paid about $4,000 last year on this house. My condo in downtown Alpharetta was actually around $2,600 so I am closer to $7,000 than $6,000.

It's a $1,250 a year to help me plan and advise on stocks.

That does seem like the most safe and logical plan. I think I'm just being impatient but I also want to take a risk. I'm kinda viewing it like it's free house money since I haven't done anything with it since like 2010. I currently have a 401K with my current company. I own one condo that I'm renting out that I'm going to sell once my tenant moves out. I keep researching articles on short term investing and covid slowed it down for a bit but its exploded since then and it's forecasted to continue the growth. People are able working from home more and more and are helping the short term investment market. I talked to a guy this weekend that is good friends with my brother. He owns a cabin in North GA and it stays rented all year round. Many people are from the city and just want to get out to somewhere peaceful to work for a bit. A vacation without having to take vacation days from work. He generates roughly $8,000 a month on average. After all expenses paid out, he's netting about $3,000-$3,500 a month. This is what I'm working towards and something like this would be used towards my retirement instead of the IRA. My assumption is the growth from the real estate would grow more than my IRA....which is why I'm willing to risk the IRA to invest in other entities.

I've been talking with some Financial Investors and they also advised against it as well. They would have a financial plan if I moved forward with it to invest in stocks or other things that can make me money before I'm 59 and a half. They won't get specific until I sign an agreement with them.

About $6,000

Would you like to know how much I paid in property taxes last year between 2 homes in Atlanta?

It's nuts here in North Atlanta. People are still paying over listing here. My condo since January has grown like $50,000.

I have an investment question for those who might know. @Augie I think this is your field. So I have a Traditional IRA account that I completely forgot. My first job in 2008 is when I opened it because that company didn't have a 401K. I got a letter in the mail that my account was moved and currently has roughly $16,000 in it. I have a 401K now so I'm not really concerned with this IRA account...I view it as house money. I'm thinking about cashing this out and use it to invest...aggressively invest in something like stocks. I believe I would have a 10% penalty along with my tax bracket....I'm probably looking around a total of 40% hit? So roughly $10,000 after all this? I'm not cashing this out to buy a car or anything like that....I would use it to invest. Anyone have thoughts on this?

LOL He's not going rogue on this, if this is the price it's listed at, it's because of his real estate agent. You have no idea what this house was appraised for as of this month.

Tua was starting QB during the 5 game slide…

LOL what? Below is a data for late round picks who become regular starters. Doesn’t specify if they are good starters…just starters. This is a 10 year period. As you can see, the odds a severely stacked against 5th-7th round picks to start…. even make the team. The reason GM’s get credit for finding a late round gem is because they beat overwhelming odds. The reason its not criticized is because the vast majority of the times they don’t start so its the norm. 5th Round - TE (32%) DB (17%) WR (16%) OL (16%) DL (13%) RB (9%) LB (4%) QB (0%) 6th Round - TE (26%) OL (16%) DL (13%) WR (9%) DB (8%) RB (6%) LB (5%) QB (0%) 7th Round - DB (11%) OL (9%) QB (6%) WR (5%) DL (3%) LB (2%) RB (0%) TE (0%) https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2015/2/20/8072877/what-the-statistics-tell-us-about-the-draft-by-round
