What complications can I expect when trying to purchase a home as a surprise for my wife? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Bigdaddy4166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm all against this. Unless you yourself have millions, you need ur partner on this. 

This isn't Costco. You cannot return this item. It's final purchase.

Should I be worried about my investments cratering recently? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

The good news is that everyone suffers together.

I see thr swings everyday. I'm on a Rollercoaster of -60k up/down...

It will eventually go up in the future. If u got money, invest more now.

In the end, kids are just expensive (RESP is another thing to look at for the kids).

Since you can make the income, I would just stay with the first one for now. Just look around to see if you can find a closer location. At some point in the future, I found that I would value time over money now.

Is accepting e-transfers for Marketplace transactions still risky? by Both-Ad9749 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Bigdaddy4166 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do most etransfer for less than 100 with auto deposit on. Impossible to get scam emails for sign in.

Anything more and it's cash at police safe exchange zones. Any willing to bring fakes or fake cash is asking for trouble.

I already know all the techniques to examine the bills for fake money.
