    No you didn't nor did I intend to imply that you were.
    I know you're just trying to help and share to show different aspects of things and so am I.

    Hey Kroozn. I'm still here. I honestly stopped posting because almost all these threads sound identical. lol Only thing new on my end is I purchased a truck, and hired a driver that should be starting orientation here before too long.

    Don't know if anyone else mentioned this yet... But it's illegal to invest money that you don't own. Your MMA is sitting in a non-interest bearing escrow account. If it was interest bearing they would have to pay you the entire interest earned. There's no shady deal going on. Investing it without paying you the interest would result in some people going to prison for a decade or three.

    You're right, but they don't have to pay All the interest. In the terms an interest rate will usually be spelled out. That rate is typically at or a hairs breadth over prime.

    There are also some "fun".accounting tricks they can play. On paper the money is there, in practice it's out having fun someplace.

    The difference is that while holding your money it can only be used to determine "holdings". That's why you'll see investment companies state that they have "$x" in "holdings". It can be used as collateral towards other investments. That's how they make money off of it. But if those funds are actually invested then there's a major breech and companies simply won't take that risk.

    Been a while since I've updated. This week was exciting. The picture is of a Facebook post that i couldn't copy and paste for whatever reason. Just wanted to give a snapshot of reality that is trucking sometimes. All in all I'm still happy here and hope everybody else is too.
