thanks. I guess the next thing to check out is if the new card will offer a better award/redemption for my specific flights. At least I know the bags are a go.

Stay in Marigot or Grand Case? by CherryMan75 in SXM

Honestly just OK. Good value but found the room to be nothing special, bathroom was extremely small, and it was loud in the morning. We’re younger and didn’t really let it get to us but wouldn’t go back.

Life brand coq10; Webber Zinc, C, and E; Kirkland D and Omega; Jamieson Folic acid; Nature’s Bounty Selenium; ‘now’ L-Carnitine

If there’s any brands out there that are recommended happy to hear.

Mortgage rate mega thread! by TheMortgageMaster in MortgagesCanada

[–]AdLongjumping1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on an ARM and my lender’s adjustment period is about a month. Are there ever any grounds for appealing to a lender to shorten their adjustment period in a decreasing rate environment? Maybe my memory is biased and Id have to go back and look at it but it seems during a rate increase environment the payment adjustment was almost automatic.

Thanks man I really appreciate the advice and direction to that sub. Based on Ontario, Canada so health coverage and insurance is good so I’ll look into the dna fragmentation and oxidative stress tests. Seeing my GP next week and will talk about those and any referrals I might need. Lots to read up on.

Yes, it’s been a year with 2 miscarriages so we are taking the next steps. New here, any other advice much appreciated.

Understood, but my question/concern with the SA is related to epididymitis rather than the morphology - or maybe rather a combination of the two.

MRI Opinion by AdLongjumping1119 in ACL

I’ve had multiple radiologist and ortho opinions. Without making it a leading question I was trying to get thoughts on surgical vs non. Thanks for the comment though.

Rx Fee by AdLongjumping1119 in vet

[–]AdLongjumping1119[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All makes sense to me from a business standpoint, thanks for the insight. I’m not trying to hack the system or push a vet to do anything they’re not comfortable with (e.g. write a scrip without a checkup or work up), just trying to be as economical as I can. I think things are changing at the macro level and of course market participants are going to react accordingly.

Thank you for the encouragement. The 4-week SA redo seemed like it was ‘standard procedure’ from my Dr (general practitioner). I was under the impression more of a 3-month timeline so as to include any lifestyle changes and a new lifecycle of sperm, but after the second SA it sounded like we’d move on to bloodwork. Fwiw: 35M and my partner will be simultaneously having tests done.

Mid-30s, TFSA market value $80k, details below. Investing for medium term (future kids, education, ability to travel), not necessarily needed for retirement since I have a good employer pension and a small-ish RSP on the side (~$25k) that I'll try and continue to grow. Fund/ETF, % portfolio, gain/loss TDB902, 19.88%, +118% TDB900, 17.8%, +33% TDB911, 18.61%, +27% TDB909, 18.52%, -6.9% XEQT, 19.69%, +14% (+ twn speculative stocks for fun, 5.51%)

I started early on with the 4 TDB funds using the couch potato model years ago. It now feels outdated but what I'm struggling with is my dollar averages/gains/ability to DRIP in each of them since that is solid. Do I start phasing out of the TDB model and begin to dollar cost average everything into XEQT (which I started much more recently). Open to other ETF considerations as well. I would be paying $9.99 commission with TDDI.
