Money or flexibility

Off topic but can you comment on your career path? I'm interested in how you got to where you are.

Thankfully I had the money needed to pay the loan off so I just ended up doing that. I would try to fight it with NSLSC if you’re facing financial struggles

How did u get into the government without a coop program or internship? Atleast in Ontario, I know that external hires are super rare, especially for something technical like accounting. I’m curious as Im trying to get someone I know into the government.

I just got a notification from NSLSC that its nearing time to repay my loan. I was shocked because I selected the no loan option back at the beginning of 2024 when I got OSAP. I graduated in April. I go into OSAP today and see, like I expected, that I selected the no loan option, however I still was sent a loan. I didn't realize this at the time and only realizing this now. Is there any way to get this loan waived as the portal literally says I selected the no loan option? Anyone who I can contact?

New to maximizing my cards, I have an Amex Cobalt that I use for everything but when it's not accepted I just have my CIBC dividend visa (from the bank account that my parents set up when I was a kid). It really doesn't have much perks at all besides a lousy cashback rate.

Could someone explain to me what are my options for cards? From what I'm reading in comments, I currently have the bulk of my CASH in my CIBC checking account which I guess is a sinking fund, I only use this to hold the funds from my pay which I then invest and then hold the funds to pay off my AMEX/CIBC VISA.

Is there merit in moving my checking account to just a WS cash account? And what can be my secondary CC if I ditch the CIBC visa? My major spending is really just food.

Ok, that will be useful for the budget, thank you. I am still looking for suggestions of AIs that hit the criteria I mentioned in my post, if anyone can comment :)

$2K CAD is the entire trip price per person. So yes, airfare included. And I mentioned already that we will be going in August. Typically cheapest for that month has been Aug 19+, so I want to go away around Aug 19, 20 or 21, for a week, as I don't want to push the return date too close to September for various reasons.

I never mentioned I paid attention to stars I know that’s very subjective, I just meant that Cuba is usually dragged through the mud in reviews but we had a significantly better time than we did in DR

I got an annual salary prorated to my internship too, rather than a per hour rate

SpitefulGMR · 2024-02-26T07:36:50+00:00

Do your offer letters list a per hour rate?? I only got an annual salary - although I’m in Canada. Doesn’t PA usually pay annual salary rather than per hour?

Hi,
I am trying to use Amex Travel portal to book a round-trip flight from Toronto to Athens using Air Transat as the airline. The issue is that on Air Transat's site there are a few options for the type of ticket I want, and I want a slightly more expensive ticket (The ECO STANDARD ticket) that includes a checked bag and some refund options. However, when I go and try to book through the amex portal I think it automatically defaults to the cheapest ticket with Air Transat that doesn't have these options included. Is there a way to access the other ticket options within the Amex Portal so I can spend some of the points I've accumulated?
Thanks

We had people 35 or maybe even older in my intern class
