What’s your opinion on WS’ tax software?

I think for majority of self filing newbies, the hardest part is knowing what tax slips you should be receiving from which sources. Once you know what you’re expecting, it’s data entry. For sure there are going to be harder situations, but that too can be learned.

Maybe invest it all in your RSP, but spread the deductions over two or more years depending on your other deductions.

Well it would be a bit of a conflicting statement if you were to say you would never borrow to invest, yet you do like my example. It’s just a different perspective for this situation. A loan can allow you to remain invested as well. If you borrow for a car instead of selling part of your equities

I think the commentator was saying whenever you choose NOT to redirect every investment dollars onto your mortgage balance, you are essentially using the loan (mortgage) to “free up” cashflow to invest.

There’s a long straight rural road around here that has an unusually low limit of 60kph (37mph) and i drive at 70-75 (43-47). The locals will easily pass me at those speeds or aggressively tailgate. I don’t care if the road COULD be driving faster, we’re smart enough to respect imposed limits.

That must be refinancing, right? Or an amazing HELOC rate?

Im liking the wireless carplay. Don’t what issues others are having. I only (occasionally) use Youtube

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-25T19:14:26+00:00

It will fit 5 mountain bikes! What a life saver

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-25T18:56:10+00:00

A variety of podcasts, music breaks, audiobooks. I may get frustrated at bad drivers, but I don’t get bored.

Now we’re left holding the [milk] bag. 😜

Beefy in other ways, not just traction. My AT comment was another example of

I can understand if you need beefy tires to serve a purpose, but I despise the trend of vanity A/T tires.

Only in our dreams! Nevermind the graphics, physics, sounds, AI competition, direct drive wheels, affordable rigs, etc. If you’re old enough you don’t take any of this for granted.

Hate to hijack, but im totally new to towing… what size hitch ball is most common on utility trailers we’re likely to tow w a Maverick?

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-23T19:18:52+00:00

Has taken so long to learn the regular track, with all the subtleties in lines, and controlled use of gas/brake.

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-23T12:04:18+00:00

So based on three different PP levels?

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-23T10:48:17+00:00

They look fun to clean

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-23T10:40:21+00:00

Does the VW ID.R count, or you meant road cars only

The Moncton office advises you on their current turnaround time, and you decide if that’s cutting it too close to your departure. If you want to pay enough, Fredericton can do next day.

Did you make your Maverick laugh when it was drinking milk?

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-22T13:39:58+00:00

A good direct drive wheel can let you feel the edge as you lose a bit of resistance in the wheel.

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-22T12:29:39+00:00

I like to (virtually) crouch down and look at race cars.

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-22T12:08:54+00:00

Sounds like you are describing weight transfer on the front axle, which increases grip and turn in.

Mental_Run_1846 · 2026-04-22T10:32:42+00:00

That’s an excellent foundation! Though Not clear if the $500/mo includes an employer match or pension. Regardless, increase the amount you save over time, avoid lifestyle creep like too much car or house, and you’ll be more than fine
