Jonathan KamensFor those of you who didn't click through the link above because "How to send a letter to <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Vanguard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vanguard</a>" isn't a particularly exciting title, let me summarize: Vanguard appears to intentionally make it hard for people to find their mailing address. I found at least 12 different web pages which could have reasonably provided it but don't. They do this because processing paper is more expensive for them, and because they want it to be hard for people to take their money out of Vanguard. This sucks.

Jonathan KamensHow to send a letter to VanguardYou can send correspondence to Vanguard at P.O. Box 982901, El Paso, TX 79998-2901. Vanguard makes it hard on purpose to find this address.This blog posting is my rant about the hours it took me to find this address.<a href="https://federate.social/tags/Vanguard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vanguard</a> <a href="https://federate.social/tags/investing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#investing</a><a href="https://blog.kamens.us/2025/01/02/how-to-send-a-letter-to-vanguard/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blog.kamens.us/2025/01/02/how-to-send-a-letter-to-vanguard/</a>

Profile13115Soon the year ends and 85% of my wage this year went to: - <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/landlord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#landlord</a> - Supermarket chains that sell massively overpriced and rotten food - <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/healthinsurance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#healthinsurance</a> - Taxes - Power billsThe other 15% were mostly spent on travel expenses, work clothes, internet and phone subscriptions and doctor appointments.I had like 200 bucks every month for recreation, gifts and other things, that sounds a lot but if one Dürüm costs 15 bucks this is gone so quickly. Considering the amount of <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/surplusvalue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#surplusvalue</a> I produced it is fucking insane how little money there is left to just live, I was not able to do anything substantial in my recreational time the whole last year and times get even more expensive. I live in one of the most profiting <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/imperialist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#imperialist</a> countries in the world and still this is the live reality of the absolute majority here. How the fuck do we just take this. Many complain but taking action seems a forging concept, especially not doing it blindly.

Maria Chiara PievatoloOspedali o cannoni? Scuole o cannoni? Cannoni o democrazia? "In Cina o Russia l’investimento militare va a cascata su strutture legate allo Stato e al potere. In Occidente invece trasferisce enormi fondi pubblici ai grandi interessi privati. Le multinazionali delle armi hanno tra i principali azionisti le società globali dei fondi: #Blackrock, #Vanguard, #StateStreet, #Kkr. Questi colossi si stanno comprando pezzi d’Italia e sono anche i veri padroni delle aziende di #armi. Anche l’Italia sta finendo in quest’orbita: il governo Meloni ha dato via libera a Blackrock per entrare in Leonardo sopra il 3% senza esercitare il golden power. Così i grandi fondi danno soldi ai governi comprando pezzi di Paese ma poi chiedono un ritorno, fanno affari con le armi e coi guadagni poi comprano altri pezzi di Paese. Entra in casa chi poi comanderà alla faccia della democrazia, come già avviene negli Usa e in Gran Bretagna." https://archive.is/7r4zT

Jonathan KamensI *love* (narrator: he absolutely does not love) that these chucklefucks send out emails warning people to be wary of scams, and the domain the emails come from is exactly the kind of bogus domain that a scammer would use. Also, all the links in the body of the mail point at the equally unverifiable domain "click.e-vanguard.com" Performative cybersecurity awareness with basic, fundamental errors really frosts my ass. 10/10, no notes. <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Vanguard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vanguard</a> <a href="https://federate.social/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a> <a href="https://federate.social/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#infosec</a> <a href="https://federate.social/tags/fail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fail</a>
