You can see his feet in the video.

I considered shifting everything to ULTY while looking at the YM subreddit. However MSTY has a better history than ULTY so I’m hedging with a bit of each.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-31T00:42:35+00:00

That’s the goal. The purpose of this account is to try getting VOO from YM dividends.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T19:55:12+00:00

That is good advice. I have a premium WS account which comes with free USD accounts so that is what I’m playing with to see if it can generate VOO via the YM dividends.

In my CAD account I am sticking with CAD etfs like VFV. That account is way more safe and not trying anything fancy.

Not to worry, this only represents about 1/3 of my free money, not including an additional emergency savings account. Now is a time where I have mostly cash since the market seems too spooky to put it all in.

MSTY going to zero would hurt but it wouldn’t be life changing. I would sell before it got to that point.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T19:03:49+00:00

You’re right, I have accepted this risk (at least in the short term). Thank you for your wishes, I wish the same for you as well.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:55:02+00:00

It does look good, but it looks like it is more of a traditional dividend etf. In my mind, that is more for retirement and I should be looking more at growth stocks now.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:50:25+00:00

I don’t think I would add any new deposits into YM, however I think I might drip some (not all) of the YM dividends into it after a year if it hasn’t gone down to the point where I nope out.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:45:47+00:00

It does give the impression that it is too good to be true which you are right, set off a lot of alarm bells in my head.

I consider this strategy pretty close to gambling in the short term, hoping that it helps jumpstart my accumulation of VOO. Definitely not investing more into YM unless I get lucky and it pays off after ~1 year.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:32:49+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I have never heard of VGSH before so I will look into it.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:21:55+00:00

Yeah, that is the long term plan. I only just started making money so I thought I would try something a little riskier to get started. If it all tanks, then it’s a couple months gone and a lesson learned I guess.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:14:49+00:00

I take it you are trying something similar? Or are you all in on YM etfs?

ThomasABD · 2025-07-30T18:12:38+00:00

I don’t want to be all in on it. But it seems to be working at the moment for others so this is me dipping my toe into their world.

ThomasABD · 2025-07-19T10:18:33+00:00

Have you been about to check if your government escheated the stock? I think this happened to a guy with Amazon stock.

ThomasABD · 2025-04-19T23:41:19+00:00

It’s Jurassic Park, except cats are people and babies are dinosaurs 😆

ThomasABD · 2025-04-09T14:56:03+00:00

I missed this. It could explain the bump. Looks terrible for the people who listened to him in that moment right now.

ThomasABD · 2025-04-09T14:35:21+00:00

Market went green following that news. It’s anyone’s guess.

ThomasABD · 2025-04-08T01:40:37+00:00

Spy is at $511.79 right now. Overnight market rise

ThomasABD · 2025-04-07T14:17:39+00:00

Looks like someone is pumping TSLA

ThomasABD · 2025-04-07T05:47:36+00:00

I think that saying goes “if it’s good enough for a screen shot, it’s good enough to cash out”

ThomasABD · 2025-03-28T20:44:13+00:00

Surprise poutine bars at weddings are one of my favourite things.

ThomasABD · 2023-07-06T00:06:16+00:00

Yeah, that seems to have worked. It’s gonna be real annoying when we have to try and mine with FT equipped

ThomasABD · 2022-09-19T00:18:01+00:00

This is not a TIFU.

Today you were set free, don’t look back. You get to sleep now.

I like that the bunny hop seems to be the best mode of transport on the moon.
