Larger brokerages sometimes are in need of administrative work, which could earn you a steady income while also getting exposure to the field.

My custodian does not have a money market or similar sweep account to keep idle cash earning.

I incorporated smart home technology, such as automated lighting, heating, and security systems, which is highly desirable in today’s market.

Relatively small amounts of interest income ($1600+ per year) is the highest taxed form of income I have found if you have kids at home.After earning a few grand in interest, It takes away my child tax credits and gives me an effective tax rate of 70%.   

I caution you now in desiring to call me or reference to me in any way with RADD or contracts, promissory notes etc.
