Good luck understanding what I'm about to describe. I'm not a very visual person. On top of that, I have no idea whether this sort of app is totally commonplace or completely unheard of.
Often, people have a preexisting list of <b>Items</b> that they need to prioritize. The Items may be associated with <b>Categories</b> (and Subcategories, etc.). The process of prioritization may be associated with a <b>Metric</b>. A natural interface would be some kind of adaptive spreadsheet designer in which you could drag Items out of the <b>List</b> into the <b>PriorityQueue</b> while the Metrics are automatically adjusted. An item domain would be primarily defined by two things: its <b>Category Policy</b> and its <b>Metric Policy</b>.
Ok, that's a lot of theoretical mumbo-jumbo. Let me give several possible scenarios.
Example 1: Employee time
You are a manager. You are given a set of tasks; it's your job to turn them into instructions for your team. You do so by dragging tasks

ESPP as savings tool
Hi everyone, new investor and very new reader here. Broader topic coming soon; first, a random question.
I had this crazy idea. Feel free to tell me how crazy it is. <b>Since my ESPP vests immediately, I was thinking that it could be viewed kind of like a 3-month bond</b>. Details, so far as I can divine them:
- Every quarter, money that I've designated to set aside for ESPP is used to buy shares at 90% of the market price. I can designate up to 15% of post-tax income toward the plan.
- As a validated ESPP program, there are no payroll/FICA/etc. taxes. I think.
- Since I'd be selling well before the 21-month holding period (18 + 3), I'd be subjected to standard income tax on the 10% purchase price savings.
- I am in the 28% marginal bracket -- close enough to the border that 401k & other pre-tax enlistments might put me down to 25%, but I'll stick with 28% for simplicity.
- Anecdotally, it usually takes less than a week for the new stock to show up in my Fido ESPP account and less than a day to execute a trade. The distribution dates are not near the announcement of quarterly earnings or any other major events. Thus, capital gains (and capital gains taxes) should be negligible in either direction.
Thus, every quarter I would gain 15%
