What do you invest your 401k in?

I wasn't sure if he admitted that as being the reason (even though it obviously is)

This is how Tile works as well. Not sure what their data harvesting policies are.

The difference between 3.5 and 4 is substantial. Here is what 4 says

To find the number of combinations in which four friends (A, B, C, and D) can stand in line such that A and C are not next to each other, we can use the following approach:

  1. Total Combinations: First, calculate the total number of ways in which four people can be arranged in a line. This can be calculated by (4!) (4 factorial), since there are 4 slots to fill, each choice reducing the number of available choices by one for the next slot. [ 4! = 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 24 ]

  2. Unwanted Combinations (Where A and C are next to each other):

    • Consider A and C as a single unit. This effectively reduces the number of units to arrange from 4 to 3 (the AC unit, B, and D).
    • These three units can be arranged in (3!) ways: [ 3! = 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 6 ]
    • However, within the AC unit, A and C can switch places. So, there are 2 ways to arrange A and C within their unit.
    • Therefore, the total number of arrangements where A and C are next to each other is: [ 3! \times 2 = 6 \times 2 = 12 ]
  3. Subtracting Unwanted Combinations: Subtract the number of unwanted combinations (where A and C are next to each other) from the total number of combinations: [ 24 - 12 = 12 ]

Thus, there are 12 combinations where A and C are not next to each other.

Which part of that is a scam?

What are the actual ticker symbols of your investments? Agree with the other user that something isn't adding up here. You're likely not invested in what you think you are

I appreciate you taking the time to respond so thoughtfully.

I hear what you're saying about not firing someone until an actual effect on the business is felt. I think that makes sense in this situation but there's certainly situations where you could find something out about an employee and should be able to fire them before it's affecting the business. Maybe my accountant committed tax fraud when they filed their taxes. That's totally in their personal life and if no one finds out about it, then it doesn't affect the bussiness. I still think it would be totally reasonable to fire that person.

I've worked my whole career in salary positions where side gigs are against my contract/need special approval so I think I'm just used to that way of thinking.

Gonna get roasted for this, but why?

I think it's pretty reasonable for an employer to fire someone for posting racist things on the Internet. I think we can all agree on that. Actions outside of work can have an effect on work and so I think it's reasonable to make employment decisions based on how the employer acts outside of work. I would argue racism is morally wrong and sex work is not, but I don't think it's possible to define employment laws in a way that fits a universal moral code.

I love the protected classes we have for employment now: age, gender, color, religion, etc. I think these protections are valuable to employees everyone, and I think they make sense because they don't affect your ability to do the job. I having "does sex work on the side" on this list makes much less sense.

I think many, maybe even most, jobs wouldn't be affected by an employee having an onlyfans, and so in my opinion someone shouldn't get fired for it most of the time. But I think there's a clear line between the protected classes and people who post on onlyfans.

I would like to read more. Sorry if asking for a source made me sound closed minded.
