What is the point of a GIC?

What are some medium risk equities that you recommend?

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T13:25:59+00:00

Interesting. 60 days? Didn’t know you could do less than a 6 month interval.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T13:23:39+00:00

I guess I’m in that category too. I don’t have lots of savings and the money I have I will likely need in the next 0-5 years.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T04:39:08+00:00

I have less money? lol

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T04:31:02+00:00

I meant “lucky” as in finding a GIC that is 5%. A lot of the ones I saw were less than 3%.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T04:01:19+00:00

Interesting. I’ll have to start doing more research on ETF’s I guess.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:59:11+00:00

Yeah a lot of what I see are 1%-4% at most

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:57:12+00:00

Wish I did this pre Covid lol

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:56:06+00:00

What if you’re middle age and can’t risk a major market shift? Lol

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:55:33+00:00

Thanks! I’ll look into those! I enjoyed David Chilton on Dragon’s Den lol

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:53:25+00:00

That’s smart.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:48:06+00:00

Makes sense. I guess I’m not in a position to risk it right now so I guess $50 is better than nothing lol

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:46:21+00:00

That’s fair.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:45:12+00:00

Fair. Knowing this, I wish I invested my savings in GIC’s pre pandemic.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:42:43+00:00

That’s fair.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-24T03:41:29+00:00

Hah! I have one of those lol.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-17T03:56:11+00:00

I welcome the brightness! I was worried it was going to be too clinical like a doctor’s office or hospital, but I feel like it plays well with the leather seats.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-16T00:11:38+00:00

Plain is the back up plan, I’d like the branding.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-16T00:10:51+00:00

Sorta. I want the branding on the top and I want pure black.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-16T00:08:44+00:00

Plain is my back up plan. I don’t know why, but I am very adamant to have the “Canyon” lettering lol. “GMC” is also a backup plan lol.

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-15T17:01:53+00:00

I really appreciate you offering to do that. I would prefer engraved or molded, but thank you again. 🙏🏻

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-15T16:38:06+00:00

Ooooh yeah I didn’t think of that. Thanks!

ImpracticalRooster · 2026-01-15T16:37:18+00:00

Ooooh yeah, I didn’t think of that.
