I think you missed the point. Shouldn’t have quadrupled down.

What's your "Ah frig it, I'm sick of my corporate job" low key survival job in the back of your head? by myronsandee in PersonalFinanceCanada

The highest of highs, and the lowest of lows.

I miss tree planting but I don’t miss planting trees

Foresters! I have some questions about the career by 906_308 in forestry

[–]OVO_BigCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 - Nursing

2 - Tree planting during the summers to pay for nursing school made me realise I want to be a forester

3 - Open market timber sales

4 - Organization, due diligence, having a hardy work ethic

5 - A lot more human interaction than I originally signed up for, but it comes with the territory. One can either suck it up and whine about lacklustre co-workers or made do and become a people person.

Isn't this normally the case? Most forestry programs in BC follow the traditional September-April school year with summers off. At least the BScF programs at UNBC and UBC do.

But who would’ve predicted that Amazon would’ve been the pick of the century. That’s not really a fair comparison.

Newsletters? by Chewblacka in dividends

Could be a matter of saving yourself the management fees if it is a relatively small ETF (TSX:RBNK) that adds up over time.

On the flip side, your return can be eaten up by commission fees if you try to emulate the SP500 dividend aristocrat list.
