1. Rampant aspect of digital records
Sat Apr 25, 2026, 09:38 PM

A very big mutual fund company once advised me to login every day. I seem to recall them saying they weren't responsible if adverse situations weren't immediately reported. Bank same thing. One long, long term company recently asked me for updates, one question was 'where did you get your funds for this account?' Like it's been there about 30 years, you're asking now?

Keep a digital record, even if only every quarter statement, monthly all the better. Two different banks each with checking accounts is a good idea.

The financial industry, the medical system, the insurers, digital vehicles, big tech .... and those are just the legal entities to worry about.

There are days I say I've lived too long.
