  Given your profitable situation, have you explored other financing options like Pipe? (https://pipe.com/). - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• High Margin + Semi Scalable Product but Net 45 terms are crushing us

  Try looking up revenue based debt investing. I think that's what it be called. https://pipe.com/. Is one of the companies in this industry I'm thinking about.

If I go to betterment.com now, I don't see any reference to crypto on the main page unless you scroll all the way down to the site map at the bottom. That's something else that M1+ could offer:.

• Moving out at 18, no idea how to be an adult.

  Lastly sign up for a free investment app like acorns, betterment.com, robin hood etc. Once you've got your budget setup dump everything else into those when combined with your credit card buffer you can always pull back out or preferrably reduce next months investments if you find yourself low on funds one month.

  There are muuuuuuch better options today that Edward Jones. Your "local guy" makes a living adding maintenance costs to your account. The original poster here could do really well by checking out betterment.com and just following the on-screen prompts (they offer IRAs, too).
