That's what I was thinking! Thanks you for the confirmation! Grateful!

We call them "deep cash" because they have a couple different tiers that you have to clear (no redemption until 1 year, 3 month interest penalty before 5 years), but once you're unencumbered, they're an excellent form of cash.
Thanks so much!

Re: Brokerage Firms for EXpats

They use two-factor authentication. The phone number I used to open my account in the US, is not the number I use to communicate in XYZ country. Then the questions start.

Re: Brokerage Firms for EXpats

Thanks! I've heard that also. I wonder how reputable they are? I hear customer service isn't the best. Thanks for honoring General Powell. He changed my life!

Brokerage Firms for EXpats

I'm having a lot of problems with brokerage firms for expats. Although I have a US address, and I'm a US resident, I can't seem to get a brokerage account at many of the firms. Any of you expats using US brokerage firms? If so which ones? BTW, Robinhood completely screwed me. DO NOT USE THEM!
