In this episode, we spill the tea on copycats and our income!

How do we really feel about accounts that copy us? And why did a recent interaction with a copycat leave a bad taste in our mouths?

We also tackle the number one question you all wanted to know last week: How much do we really make? And is James underpaid?

Tune in for candid discussions about originality, the impact of imitation, and a no-holds-barred look at our paychecks.

A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing, member FINRA/SIPC. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. As of 9/26/24, the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across the Bond Account is greater than 6%. A bond’s yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond’s YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule. Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. High Yield bonds carry greater risk of default. See https://public.com/disclosures/bond-account to learn more.
