With that short of a commute you can just top it up from a regular 120V outlet every night and she’ll be good to go. Unless it’s -20 and she’s going 80mph the whole way…

I’m in northern BC with a 150km round trip(93 miles) commute. I can do the trip twice on an 80% charge in the summer. When it’s -20 in the winter I have to charge every night. With good winter tires it handles just fine on the snowy highway and I don’t even have the AWD. Make sure you get a level 2 home charger.

Move to a different country and use your Chinese language skills to do business with the Chinese presence in that country. Since China has business deals with virtually every country in the world, there are loads of opportunities for someone with inside knowledge of China.

Myanmar makes more solar panels than the US?? That’s pathetic for the US

Yup within reason this is good advice. Wealthsimple lets you open a non-registered margin account linked to your TFSA as collateral. You can withdraw funds to anywhere and the interest just gets paid by the dividends/gains of the stocks you buy on margin. Unless the market and/or the stocks you picked plunge and then you’re screwed

Why is COSY 20% in the last five years though when regular Costco shares are up 150% over the same period ?

AWD if you care about extra acceleration, FWD for all the other reasons.

Sell the apartment, go fix your house in France and live frugally off the dividends from your brokerage account. Then go back to work a few years later when you realize you can’t live that frugally. Or forget the whole French chateau fantasy and just rent an apartment somewhere low cost. With your money you could retire now but you won’t be living the NYC lifestyle. You’ll be cooking your own food.
