Stadia Pro Free
Looks like Google Stadia Pro is free for two months and it's time for users to jump in and check out what games you can play in 4K. It's a great way to try out the site and see if this is something worthwhile. At least it's free.

Telsa Teardown
Automakers recently had a teardown on a Telsa and the car to many is an advance feature way ahead of it's time that was made possible by thinking out of the box.
The reason engineers have a hard time understanding this is because they are not using this type of thinking method and it's a wake-up call for everyone.
This is the future and it's up to them to decide to be on board or not.

Acorn
Acorn investing great for people who want to invest but know very little about it. They invest your money after answering a few questions for them and they make the money for you.
You can start as little as $1- or $5- a month by setting up the automatic monthly deduction from your bank account and even though there is a $1- monthly charge for investing, it still a low fee to pay to have your money work for you. There are other plans, but I would recommend at first, the basic plan.
The company purchases fractional shares and you can easily buy a $1- stock on a company that you would not have the money to buy that share easily.
Now the only downfalls are that you cannot but your own shares, they do this for you once you choose your investment profile. And all dividends from the company go back to your cash account for use or reinvestments. So dividends are always paid in cash which is still not that bad.
Now they do have a charge card that you can use and I would look into it but there are some monthly fees to consider. But you cannot beat the no minimum balance or overdraft fees, unlimited fees or reimbursed ATM fees. And money reinvested for you for using their card. So it could be worth it.
Besides all that the company is protected by SIPC ($500,000) which is like the FDIC that insures your bank. Partnered with Lincoln Savings Bank.
Some other things to consider if your money is beyond $5,000- in this case, you might want to look into a premium brokerage account but the fees are still reasonable at $.25 % fee annually.
Google search info:
As of 2019, Acorns had over 4.5 million users and over $1.2 billion in assets under management.
As for now if all stays that same, this company is still worth looking into and investing, until their fees or plans change.

WiFi Trojan
There is a new WiFi trojan that can infect networks called Emotet. The trojan is able to infect machines and jump across WiFi networks to infected machines connected to hijacked networks. The stop to it is very simple but like everything else in life, we will not know until there is an outbreak.

PS5
It looks like Sony is doing it's best to keep costs down, but chances are that the device will still be pricey because they are more powerful gaming units. Who knows maybe they will hold down the prices so that they can make the difference with user games.
It's still on the table and hopefully, we will know more information soon.

Standard Charger for Phones
It looks like the EU is now pushing for a single standard charging port for all smartphones hoping to reduce electrical waste. This will hopefully force manufactures to make a universal charger that will work with any device whether it be old or new.
