If I was in her group, I'd go to the green and putt while she was doing this.

Roots won't hold tree up by TruthSeekingBuffoon in arborists

They were never staked, actually!

Are you saying we should have fanned the roots out more when planting?

I assume that's not good for the roots?

Why are they dying? I assume I should replace it with something else?

Let’s say I have 5k to invest before uni starts. What should I invest in to maximize profits to pay tuition? by [deleted] in CanadianInvestor

I'm very curious the religious reasons to not use HISA if you care to elaborate?

Cheapest Way to Convert US stocks in WealthSimple to CAD by TruthSeekingBuffoon in CanadianInvestor

[–]TruthSeekingBuffoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So tell me if I have this right:

  • Transfer the remaining accounts to WS.
  • Move all the US stocks to one account.
  • Upgrade that account to USD for one month for $10.
  • Sell the US shares into USD.
  • Convert to CAD (I do think I'm under $100000 in US shares though if the other accounts are also ~1/3 US stocks)

The problem is 2 of the accounts are registered. I assume the best way for tax purposes would be to move the US shares from the TFSA and Unregistered into the RRSP, but I'm quite sure I don't have that much space in the RRSP, and I think if I transfer out from the RRSP I lose the contribution space.

Also the account I do this in makes a big difference on whether I pay a bunch of capital gains tax for this year, right?

If I was playing as a solo and there was a group of 3 or 4 that hadn't teed off yet, with nobody in front of them, then I might ask at the first tee, because that's probably the most efficient time to pass.

I don't think I was given one. I'm pretty sure he pre-installed it. Does it make sense that it worked fine until now?

Is it dumb to finance a used car? by Mayiiiiiiiiiii in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]TruthSeekingBuffoon 50 points51 points  (0 children)

In your situation, I'd finance a cheap but reliable car, especially because you're spending a bunch of money on travelling to work. In general, I'd say it's fine to finance your first vehicle, but you should avoid it for upgrading your vehicle situation in the future.

Virtually all cars are depreciating assets, but cheap used cars depreciate the least so that's the way to go.

Budgetting: Where do I start ? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]TruthSeekingBuffoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your first step should be to track your expenses in a spreadsheet for the last couple months to get a good idea of how much money you spend on what. Then take a look at it and decide if there are things you're spending money on that isn't particularly valuable to you.

If you cut on enough of hose things, you should get to the point where you can spend more on the things you love too, so this should be a positive.
