      I ran into http://motif.com  earlier today, which is pretty clearly attempting to RobinHood-style sew up millennials who have money but don’t connect to either mutual funds or the finance industry. Not sure how I feel about this, honestly.

      I am so so down on "new" financial technology right now. There's room for everyone to win, but it seems like every new entrant is determined to drive customer portfolios to nil through shitty defaults and gamification that ignores suitability and good sense in general.

      Sure your hypothetical 25 year old could learn by the time she's 35, but she has to have money left to invest after a decade of errors to become a more effective investor.

      (Disclaimer: I buy lottery tickets off /r/wallstreetbets sometimes. I know how to run the math though, and I stop out before things go too horribly wrong. And yes, they go wrong pretty often)

      I’m curious; what’s the attraction to wallstreetbets? I also have a funny-money allocation but every time I see them it reads like degenerate gamblers who are nincompoops. (“Trading naked short calls SEXY what’s a call YOLO.”)

          There’s something very entertaining about seeing seven dollars in margin interest turning into several thousand dollars. Others enjoy the loss porn. Preferably others’ loss porn.

          For what it’s worth, 98% of my money is in VSTAX. A negligible portion of the rest is in YOLO trades that occasionally do fun things.
