Grrl Power #348 – Ride the green pony
Originally I thought I’d put the PPO in Sydney’s hand since it’s red like the apple in her daydream, but I didn’t want it to look like Sydney was sticking him up or about to accidentally blow a hole in him and the building so I had to change it to the wad of paper.
I hope the advice Aurelius is giving Sydney is remotely sound. In terms of “making a living off your webcomic” I’m doing extraordinarily well (with a big thanks for all the continued support over at Patreon and from the Amazon and Paypal links) but that’s still a far cry from financial adviser territory. (There’s probably fewer than 10 webcomics that meet that bar) But I had him give some at least common sense sounding advice. I’m sure among my readers there are a few people who actually know what they’re doing when it comes to investing.
Normally I like putting (cramming) a bit more content on each page, but I knew the week I was working on this page had a camping trip planned for that weekend. I knew I wouldn’t get any work done for the 3 days on the trip and it happened to work out that I could do this page with Sydney slowly zoning out while Aurelius talked about money, which was slightly less work than usual.
Here’s the link to the new comments highlighter for chrome, and the GitHub link which you can use to install on FireFox via Greasemonkey.
Man that odd spark of clarity isn’t coming back for another hour
But what if that spark of clarity is really the Allspark!?
She knows not what power she now bears!
Or horses.
But if she horsed around too much it could cause disaster. Or datsaster… or just aster…. aster…
GAwd Robin. I hate your made-up words.
I can’t help but laugh out loud. That is a gag that does not weaken over time.
Plus have just noticed that Sydney is visualising herself as wearing fancy armour (from the second to last frame) and a snazzy gold ring. Not to mention the castle in the background.
She really is into the ‘Queen of Salt’ thing. :-D
I don’t think he’ll have as unique a client as her
Aurelius don’t be offended, she pictures you as a black stallion, cause you are one! ^\\\^
That she’s part owner in a retail store is already a huge investment and honestly I can see the guy figuring out how to make it a better one
Oh, I thought she waded up the check at first
I was confused
Did she realize she didn’t want all that money?
I am curently re reading all the comic. As a financial advisor, I can say this is prety on point recommandations. Mutual funds ans segregated funds are great expecialy for someone who just got a lot more than usual.
