How much money do you make?

Sorry, I'm calling you out too as a liar. I make just about what you claim, but I use TurboTax, and I manage all my investments on my own, because with a portfolio the size of people who earn a lot have, even a 1% assets under management fee is insulting. I agonize between a 0.2% difference (2.00 - 2.20) in a cash management / checking accounts which keeps their funds in a money market fund. I also call my SiriusXM/cable/internet providers and pretend to quit so I can get a discount, and I call around to shop auto and homeowners insurance. This much money isn't THAT much money, so we still have to save. I'm also laughing at your talk about buying $150,000 watches. People that make less than a million don't buy watches for $150,000. You can't afford them. I mean, sure, you could, in the same way you could afford a Lambhorghini, but you can't actually afford it.

Is it 1%? Worked with a girl whose husband was listed on Forbes as a top 20 investment banker guy, he managed a couple billion and I think was taking in 20m?
She got pregnant then never came back. Lol
Poor guy tho, she was average looking and pilled out of her mind all day

I mean for managing individuals investments. I met with a financial planner who was fee based, and his fee was 1% assets under management per year. So imagine you have $1,000,000, thats $10,000 per year. Over twenty years of saving, that's over $200,000 that you paid to someone for doing nothing more than you could have learned in a weekend on bogleheads.org, for free.
I don't know anything about the kind of investment banker that you're mentioning!

Cleared 923k on investment income last year.
About 330k of it was from investing in horses with a buddy in Kentucky... New to me but fuck you can make bank if you know the right people. One horse can go for 100k++++++ at auctions in Miami and around. Prob gonna give it another go again.
Like everything else on this forum by foler, this is probably least believable

You would have to dig through the politics thread, although clownbags has already been thread banned for the time being.

I normally wouldn't dream of outing someone in PMs like this but considering the flow of this thread tonight... You earned this spot! (plus, the lulz demanded it)
This thread has potential for greatness; keep up the

Not the best move for an attention whore to nuke those who may fawn upon him.

God, well I misremembered. Been about a year and a half since I heard the story and it was in passing. Fucking hell my mind inflated that shit. So top 500 up and comers. Anyway, his wife was nice enough. Spacey.
The fake heart surgeon thing was at least a month ago. Maybe three.
He was cracking open chests and massaging hearts to life while giving a PhD lecture or some shit.

So in a related to this thread question, how many people hire out their taxes? How many do their taxes themselves? It seems the higher the income the more likely it is someone else does their taxes. I do my own, but send them to my lawyer to finalize them. Where does that put me on the scale?

With Cads wife.
No reason to hire out you're taxes unless you are doing flow through crap or have large volume.
There are exceptions, but most people that pay someone to do it are saving an afternoon
