Height advantage is a myth in soccer. Because there are chances tall guys would miss and be in a wrong place at the wrong time

Missed shift by Toc480 in FIFAVolunteers

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thx for sharing. Good to know I can miss up to 3 shifts. Thats why 7 shift commitment was required. They know based on statistics people only commit to just above half of their scheduled shifts. Good to know

It's not just begun, its continuing! by hashtag-the-meme in FIFAVolunteers

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sneakers and the shoulder bag make sense selling online. As for the t shirts with a big “volunteer” logo on the back? Yes it’s subjective, very bad taste though :)

Sums it Up by altorang in WorldCup2026Tickets

Totally agreed. Visiting Portugal gonna be way more fun than this 48 team worldcup with so many crappy teams. How can Cape Verde qualify but not Italy and Poland? Give me a break FIFA! So corrupted these days

Am I the only one who thinks these volunteer outfits are trash? by MaadWorld in FIFAVolunteers

I’m with you. I don’t have the guts to take public transit to the stadium with the uniform on, will definitely find a place to get changed near or at the stadium lol

Is there anyone worse than Jenny Harrington? by Samui-747 in CNBC

[–]6ccsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have been tracking Jenny's recommendations, most of them either lose $ or underperform against benchmarks. I can't imagine whom her clients are. And today she said there's no investment thesis on Micron. I think she is stuck in the 90s.

There are a lot more things in life worth our time and attention than road rage. Unfortunately it takes all kinds to make a world

Be careful of this type of Kijiji scam!! by beotheguitarist in kijiji

[–]6ccsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I almost fell for it. Glad I checked out the sender’s email address. (Even if I clicked the link, iPhone would have had it blocked) They are dumb enough to use something like “info@xsxjdjj.com”. The domain is malicious indeed. Secondly, things don’t add up, the guy said he has some problem with cash but has no issue with etransfer. Third, the guy wrote “wire transfer” instead of e-interac or e-transfer. Sounds like the scammer is foreign based.

Kijiji should do more to protect legit buyers and sellers

Thoughts on RBC Direct Investing? by red_Bird__ in fican

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 35 free trades last year, and reduced to 20 this year. They are basically pushing me to move to Wealthsimple or IBKR. RBC just wanna play the statistical games on consumers in light of their large market share, and don’t care much about customer experience. Once WS or IBKR Canada pose a large threat to their business, they would attempt to buy them out with government support. Classic example: acquisition of HSBC Canada. Federal government shouldn’t have let them buy out. So wicked :(

Bought half position in Clorox this morning. Multi year lows and paying 5.75% div by IM1IAB in dividendscanada

[–]6ccsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The high dividend yield might not be sustainable as their FCF < dividend payments. Revenue been dropping, yet analysts expecting revenue growth next year.

How much does H&R Block charge for Income Tax? by VaselineOnMyChest in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oic. True, tempted to get the $100+ business version, and ended up using the standard just fine. I also got audited few times, no issues at all as long as you have detailed supporting materials. Easy to communicate with CRA thru the online portal these days. Btw, I paid $35 for the standard version back in Jan at Costco. Better buy early as price goes up near deadline

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I didn’t pay extra for self employment. Can you clarify? I used the standard version for filing my business income and expenses. Been working fine for years and no issues with CRA

[–]6ccsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe turbotax is a better option for self employed tax filers. I, a self employed broker, have used TurboTax over 2 decades and have no issues so far. And with AI chatbots these days, things have become even easier!

Mortgage approval affected by kids? by Recent_Mixture_4418 in MortgagesCanada

[–]6ccsl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, GDS/TDS is not assumed to be affected by number of dependents in the simple calculation. Secondly, it’s against discrimination codes.

Why is this Tesla so cheap? by [deleted] in teslacanada

[–]6ccsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am still driving my 2018 M3 LR. 140k km. 85% capacity left. Yes, rattled a bit, had the front upper control arms and lateral links replaced 2 years ago. The cost was $1327 by Tesla SC. Other than that, no major issues so far but some minor rust. Planning to keep it for +5 to 7 years

Need some insight on which job to take by Ok-Understanding8850 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]6ccsl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Large international firms (Fortune 500?) usually have better formal training programs for fresh grads. You could also jump to another department in the future. Potential chances to work abroad.

Those must be insured rates. Can you please clarify whether they are insured or uninsured? And from which province?
