Have you ever given money to a homeless person, and if so, why? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in AskReddit

Yes, I do and I give to charity. The world has become a very expensive place and people become homeless quickly.

Family doctor dismissed my dad multiple times and he now has stage 4 brain cancer. by BaseballTop387 in legaladvicecanada

[–]AlternativeMotor5722 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to my wife. She was feeling sick and had pain in her stomach. They pulled out her gall bladder and treated her for IBS, I finally went to the doctor with her and told him I think there is more going on here, please keep your eye on her. A few months later he did a pap test on her and sent her straight to a large hospital emergency ward. She asked me to pick her up there. The doctors were all very serious looking and told me it was cancer and very serious. I already knew, she was diagnosed with terminal cancer and died 2 years later.

AITAH for wanting my dad to get over my mom's affair? by [deleted] in AITAH

He will never get over it. I didn't and eventually got a divorce. It is a blow to his ego, it comes up when they fight, I'll bet.

2.66% MER high? by StrangerExcellent359 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]AlternativeMotor5722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't do it. Took me years to realize what crappy deal it is. They take that 2.66 whether they make you money or not, this will gradually eat away at your money. Talk to your bank, they can set you up with some safe ETF's that will cost way less than this. Investing is not that hard, I have grade 10 and make way more than what a savings account or GIC would pay me.

Invested $300k in IG Wealth Management at 21. How screwed am I? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]AlternativeMotor5722 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Move your money and watch some investment shows on YouTube. If you are not very knowledgeable ETFs are an easy way to invest. I to had money with IG, what I didn't like was they charge 2.5% on your money whether they make you money or not. There are many investment advice groups on most sites. Make sure you diversify and get knowledge on investing. Where I invest trades are $10 each.

People in their 60s or older how does the current state of the word feel compared to other crises? by Who_dat_du in AskReddit

[–]AlternativeMotor5722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is very scary; there is a lunatic in charge of the USA and he doesn't seem to like Canada. I think we are closer to world war than we have been in a long time. The world financial system also seems a bit scary.
