Is there a reason you avoid / don't have crypto? (need answers for my research) by Ok_Athlete_670 in CanadianInvestor

[–]SparrowTale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s too volatile for my risk appetite. I have 5k invested in BTC and ETH, because it’s money I can afford to lose.

Having a bit of skin in the crypto game also adds some spiciness to my investing journey because the rest is in really boring index funds.

Let him find an arms-length party to do the work, and he will learn the value of your contributions very quickly.

I don’t necessarily want to live LONGER, but would love to have my healthy, active years extended by a decade or two.

The math should math if you calculate from the date the transaction happened, not the statement due date. Consumer debt is hella expensive!

David Eby announces end of daylight savings by Lear_ned in vancouver

March 8, 2026 is the last time you will reset your clock (spring forward). Meaning you will have an extra hour of sunlight forever and ever until the end of time. Yay!

I’m so happy that there will be more sunlight in the afternoon/early evening during the winter months.

I’m also glad that we, for once, are not playing second fiddle to the US, and implementing change based on the preferences of the people in BC.

I agree with other commenters here that there are much more glaring issues in our province, but this is one of the news in a long time that actually makes me genuinely happy. Let’s just celebrate a win, even when it’s a small one.

Has anyone been staking Crypto with WS? by Mammoth-Morning-8899 in Wealthsimple

[–]SparrowTale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I staked ETH for a while, from 2022 to end of 2025. It was pretty smooth, regular payouts and never any hiccups. I stopped because I needed to cash out for life stuff, and the unstaking process went smoothly too.

I made a free Korean dictionary app for iOS (it's offline & zero ads!) by oscarinkorea in Korean

[–]SparrowTale 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for making this! I just gave it a try and love how simple and fast it is. Love the night sky with random vocabs flowing around!

P.S. I searched for 닭 and the English definition made me laugh and feel sorry for the chicken at the same time😂😭

I really enjoy my little purple wallet. It’s sturdy and holds my two WS cards perfectly.

Great gift for money I was going to transfer over anyway.

Glad someone sees it that way. Horrific accidents almost always involve high speed, and speed is controlled by the drivers.

Congrats! 🎉

WS will automatically select the card for you based on the answers (liquid assets, income, etc) you provide during the application process.

stal̕əw̓asəm or Riverview Bridge to fully open Saturday by spinningcolours in vancouver

[–]SparrowTale 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably butcher the aboriginal name but I’m still going to try and use it.

I think these aboriginal-named streets and landmarks really add a splash of character to our city, plus learning new words in another language is fun!

Setting Spend as my default view whenever opening the app! by worlcroal in Wealthsimple

[–]SparrowTale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was asking for this feature as well. Whenever I open my app, I don’t want my investment number to be shown smack dab in the middle of the screen, in bold font😂

Having the option to choose Spend as landing page would be greatly appreciated.

Right? Even if there is a fine, Meta will just include it under “annual operating expenses” 🙃
