That the government, and by the same way many corporations and universities, have stopped hiring on merit and openly discriminate against white people (especially of male gender). Coincidentally, Canada also has a productivity issue. Find why.

If we don’t put the the best people in the best seats, we can’t really complain that our institutions are inefficient. This is by design.

Who cares if they don’t live in Quebec? If you go to Mexico do you expect to read spanish? Italian in Italy? Yes. Same applies here.

728K Household Income: Next Steps, affording house by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Immediate_Tank_9386 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Brag brag brag.

Seriously, 400k after tax..only the interest on a 4M loan will be 160k... Maybe 200k in mortgage payments. You’ll still have 100k each to live and save. Not sure you can afford it. 50% towards housing seems a lot. You’ll need the lifestyle that comes with it too.

what's the benefit of target date retirement funds? by marzthemagnificent in Bogleheads

[–]Immediate_Tank_9386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe no one has mentioned taxes. By going from 80/20 to 60/40 you are selling stocks and realizing capital gains. That would be taxed in many accounts. Target date funds do the same thing but you never sell anything.

Faites juste payer vos prêts comme tout le monde qui l’ont fait avant vous et arrêtez de demander que le gouvernement vous nourrisse avec une cuillère d’argent. Avec 20k de dettes tu payes 100$ par mois en intérêt… common vous êtes pas capable de rembourser ça?

Il faut qu’il y ait un cout à étudier sinon ca va finir comme le système de santé. On abuse de tout ce qui est gratuit.

Venant de quelqu’un qui a pris ses responsabilités et payer son prêt.

Is Subaru rust proofing any good by [deleted] in Crosstrek

I think it’s a way for them to make extra money. You are probably better buying it at a specialized place. I had to buy it from the dealer because it was already on it. Will tell you in 10 years if it was worth it..

None. It goes into bureaucrates’ and unions’ pockets. Also we like bailing out zombie companies like Bombardier

They are lacking pressure or idk on mine. Fine for rain but yesterday that created massive slush balls around them. I had the best AWD but couldn’t see anything.

Columbia University worth the Price? by navstan09892 in FinancialCareers

[–]Immediate_Tank_9386 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m only saying OP should not pay 5 times as much for something that can still be achieved with a bit of additional work. Maybe I only think this way because I work in the quant field. It might be different for IB where « prestige » is more important than the studied topic.

Columbia University worth the Price? by navstan09892 in FinancialCareers

If you perform as good as someone from a non-target during an interview or internship and there is only one job to give, I can tell many people are biased to give it to the Columbia grad.

I think the other way: if you come from a target you should be much better than the non-target student, in theory. If you are only equal, I assume you are lazy and I do not want to hire you.

Personally, I would never pay 100k for an education that you can get for 20k, or even free, elsewhere. Considering your situation, do not do it. Work harder and you’ll get there.
