• The Browser Tab Count

  20. I use xTab (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xtab/amddgdnlkmohapieeekfknakgdnpbleb?hl=en) which automatically closes the oldest tab unless I pin it to stay at 20 or less tabs. Don't miss the tabs that close on their own at all. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What is your productivity tech stack?

  Extensity - helps you create profiles for extensions, e.g. I have one for when I QA, one 'minimal' with most turned off, one for design, etc. Also makes it easy to toggle on/off extensions Xtab - max number of tabs. Helps keep me focused on what I need since it will auto-close the oldest/least recently accessed tab when new ones are opened. Source: almost 2 years ago

• I have 218 browser tabs open

  I normally leave tabs open in case I want to soon revisit them. I like xTab as a solution for this. It automatically closes the oldest tab after x are open. I just need to remember to pin tabs I don't want it to close (such as those used for meetings.) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xtab/amddgdnlkmohapieeekfknakgdnpbleb?hl=en. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• LPT: You probably won't miss those 20 browser tabs, so go and close them

  xTab is an amazing browser extension for Chrome, and it automatically limits the number of tabs you can have open at any time, by closing the least-used tab when you open a new one. Source: over 2 years ago

• What to do with extra $13k as a 20 year old

  Go to betterment.com and put it in their cash reserve. You'll get a good interest rate that should help at least reduce some inflation risk. Source: almost 1 year ago

• Financially illiterate

  If you want a less frightening way to invest, betterment.com was my gateway into investing. It has a pre-selected basket of index funds and bonds, and you can just select your risk tolerance, set up a deposit schedule, and they take care of the rest. I started with $10/paycheck 11 years ago, and now I have almost $20,000 invested as I kept increasing my automated deposits as my salary grew. Source: about 1 year ago

• Weekly note about a direct competitor outdoing M1+

  Also about Betterment: they too started offering crypto at exactly the wrong time, but unlike M1 they have the decency to hide it from view! 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.

• Newbie Question - Investment Account

  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). Next time you meet with your local guy, ask him how much (the exact dollar amount) he's made from the fees on your investment account...and... Source: almost 2 years ago
