My understanding is that T-mobile solved their spectrum issue in the failed deal with AT&T. As part of the penalties of the deal not going through, AT&T had to give them a bunch of spectrum, and some cash to build out towers to depl

Something affecting Mormon fertility rates specifically is the dramatic increase in housing costs in the “Mormon Corridor” (the inter mountain us west strip of geography where most Mormons live). It’s simply too expensive for most young Mor

Same. I do like the flexibility but miss the "bustling office culture" as you call it. Seems like the idea for me would be some kind of hybrid where 2-3 days a week at least most co-workers are together in-office and the other day

here's an example: say you have $100k invested the 1% fee for that will be $1k the earnings will be $7k so the "1%" fee takes away 14% ($1k is 1/7th, or 14%, of $7k) of your earnings.
