Given that civ is the main Sid Meier game, I don't think we'll be getting another disaster like Civ:BE. That game was just an open cash grab, if their flagship game bombs I think their company would get pretty fucked. On September 30 2016 02:42 GrandInquisitor wrote: I don't know, though. Isn't one of the Fundamental Laws of Gaming that a Civ game will never be good at launch, pretty good with the first expansion and balls-to-the-wall good with the second expansion? Possibly, but it seems like there's a lot of content as it is, although it's entirely possible that lategame is atrociously underdeveloped. But just from what I've seen on streams, I have a lot of faith that a mod or a few could patch up any big problems in the game. Unless the AI is bad. If it is, then RIP game, but I hope they won't fuck the one thing that can't be fixed with mods up. | ||

I've checked a couple Credit Unions in my town that offer fairly paltry gains (even relatively speaking). I've also looked at Ally Bank and GS Bank as online-only savings options, which seem to offer ~1% interest. Anyone have any suggestions? What are your needs? Ally is what I use and it works pretty good. I'd recommend getting an account with a bank with physical locations as well b/c there's some things you can't do via Ally easily (like getting a check (like cashing a check that's been endorsed over to you). 1% is going to be the highest you get from a national bank. Some small local credit unions might offer higher to attract business, but you have to poke around your area for those? | ||

My regional bank offers 1% on its checking as long as you have electronic statements, an auto deposit and 12 monthly transactions... super easy. You will not believe this but 6 years ago the interest was like 5.5% on the checking... was fantastic but before I actually had a large balance lol. | ||

Go do the Balance artifact quest while they're looking for damage. Beat Xavius. Get Artifiact gem for Scythe of Elune. Guess I'm Boomkin now. Seriously, Glyph of Stars.

We just opened one up to put our wedding money in and the rate was stupid low. Even CDs are getting you less than 5%, it's almost not worth it outside of just having a slightly more secure location than a checking account. If you really want to invest the money and see it grow, imo look at IRAs. They're still pretty trash but nothing will make you investment money in the short term unless you play stocks. | ||
