• 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: about 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: over 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).

• What is the best CRM for a small business?

  Hey! I'm not as familiar with the restaurant space but I've heard good things about Toast. You may need to use their point-of-sale system to get the full benefits, but they do have a CRM, ERP tools, and some marketing capabilities built into their software. Source: over 1 year ago

• Waitstaff, do you prefer separate checks for parties of 10-15 or waiting for them to figure out how to split the check?

  For others who are confused: Toast is a point-of-sale (POS) app used by restaurants to charge customers. Source: over 1 year ago

• Japan: Depopulation a surefire formula for national ruin

  Even without robots, services like Toast can cut down the number of waiters needed by moving ordering & table service to smartphones. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Data science for small businesses / restaurants

  I think toast https://pos.toasttab.com/ does this for restaurants. They sell point of sale systems, but also back office software too. That enables them to collect all the data, then they provide analytics that is supposed to help the restaurant be more profitable. Source: about 2 years ago
