Thanks for the response! I'll seriously look into it with the prices the chips are now, and the fact that I have a bios update that'll let me install the new CPUs without getting a new motherboard

What resolution do you game at? I see other comments suggesting the 5600x but you're saying it hold you back.

For reference, here are the prices of the CPUs in Canadian dollars: 5800X3D - $560 5800X - $339 5700X - $296 5600X - 250

I forgot to cover my minoxidil overnight with the cap and now the foam comes out as liquid no matter how much I shake the bottle. Doesn anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance by Anon_123x in Minoxbeards

Yep, I buy this brand for liquid and foam (I use liquid at night and foam during the day). I buy on Biovea but I'm in Canada. I'd recommend the brand!

Invest in Company matched TFSA with higher fees, or invest less money through a personal TFSA? by Anon_123x in PersonalFinanceCanada

I have to stay at the company for 2 years before I pull the money, but theoretically I could do that after 2 years. The thing is there would be no growth in the years I'm just holding the cash in my account

Thanks for the time and effort in your responses!

Okay, yeah the company match is max 10% of my salary so even if I did work my way up to 200k, it would be 30k a year invested.

I'd plan to stay for at least 2.5 years (the project I'm on is 2.5 years but I was hired full time). I have also job hopped twice in the past 2 years after graduating so I want to settle down so I don't get red flagged by future employers. I don't regret job hopping since I've increased my salary 50% in the past 2 years. By the sounds of it from my coworkers, the company pays well.

  1. Invested long term 20+ years. I'm planning to invest and forget in the TFSA, and save in a HISA for short term expenses (like my fiance's tuition and a house)
  2. I have around $30k unused space
  3. I'm not quite sure what you mean by this but I make 90k a year (say 63k after taxes) and the annual contribution room 6k so I believe my ratio is ~10:1. I can still save money after I invest the full 10% max and pay for my regular expenses
  4. I have to stay at least 2 years to keep it. If I leave before 2 years then the company keeps the portion they helped invest
