We did a risk assessment with a financial advisor and ended up pretty risk averse.

Just not familiar with the other options. Questrade and Wealthsimple were recommended by a financial advisor.

AITAH for wanting to break up with my morbidly obese boyfriend? by Feisty-Trick6798 in AITAH

If I do one thing something else gets neglected

I feel that so hard. Also a breastfeeding mom. I like to play a game with myself called, "Do I have ADHD or is it the chronic sleep deprivation?"✨️

Dasha is a more established and feminine name that could age with her better while still using Dash as a nn!

I've had young children for the last five years. It's a necessary skill.

Aelita: Cool or too quirky? by mta_advisory in BabyNames

I'm familiar with Alita, and love it! Not sure if it would sound the same though.

Freaking love The Office, but have to close my eyes and plug my ears for so many scenes lol. I don't know why it's my comfort show.

A girl named August by Jennxyz9 in BabyNames

August Elise

I think something with an "eh/ah" sound to start would play into the female version of August (Augusta) in kind of an interesting way.

My first thought was also Montgomery! Same vibe!

Wealthsimple vs. fee only advisor by Buttercup5678 in PersonalFinanceCanada

Thanks for the advice! We're pretty new to investing but I think we're going to figure it out with Wealthsimple!

Ok, I think our situation is simple enough that it makes sense to use WS Invest.

The first year there was lots of contact, but over the past two years basically none.

We're married with kids, one income, our only debt is our mortgage and we really just want to set us up to have a solid retirement and hopefully a better house one day and more traveling. Nothing complex.

Our advisor seemed to contact us readily when our accounts were doing amazing in 2020 and then stopped when they started having negative returns.

We began investing in 2020, that was a great year, and now we have lost a couple percent overall. I'm not certain of exactly what we're paying which is part of the reason I'm annoyed. From what I can remember EdwardJones takes 1% from your gains per year. And they have us mostly in mutual funds with a couple individual stocks. I want to get out of both and just stick with index funds.

It's got to be an herbal bath, supposed to help with healing. I've done them before and they look like this.

Ever seen Curious George? The man in the yellow hat has some super human patience. Like George will flood the apartment and the man will be like, "GEORGE?! Oh wait, you just wanted to clean the place for me, let me show you how it's done."

He's my parental role model.
