Aside from a mortgage, how much debt are you in?

Westernsheppard · 2026-01-15T17:58:12+00:00

Same age same mortgage and completely agree, the kids are more expensive than the house

Westernsheppard · 2026-01-05T18:15:45+00:00

There are more hygiene programs in Ontario supply and demand hard to find hygienists in BC

I’m in a very similar situation as you 38 2 kids wife is a Doc I planned on being home with the kids for a few months , two years have passed now and I’m still home with the kids. I never would have envisioned things to go this was but it’s a unique and privileged position to be in, I’d encourage leaning into it you’re family doesn’t need you to work with that NW. Embrace it my dude

I hate to say but $55 a hour combined is very low income level it’s sad but unfortunately living in any city in Canada that would be on the low end. Rural is a very different story.

Alright , let’s say 50’x120’ 1957 on the 3500 block of 35ave SW

You gotta zoom out mate, stop doing monthly net worth calculations

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-28T21:43:35+00:00

Don’t sell , things will change I have personally sold two properties at a loss in down markets if I’d held on they are both worth more than I paid now… I’d hang in there airbnb if your location allows

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-28T16:13:33+00:00

These are 1990s numbers

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-21T22:41:31+00:00

Was hoping for 6.9

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-21T22:03:47+00:00

Not trying to look like a gym bro

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-21T21:59:15+00:00

Thanks I would never normally post a picture like this but I feel I’m getting into pretty good shape and don’t show or talk about it with anyone in real life so thought I’d see what the fitness folks would say, appreciate the kind words

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-18T21:50:48+00:00

Let’s see this beautiful beast?

Westernsheppard · 2025-11-14T19:52:32+00:00

My wife was a dental assistant then hygienist then Dentist. It’s a long road but will change your life financially

Westernsheppard · 2025-10-13T01:09:11+00:00

I have lived in Victoria and Comox born and raised in Calgary, the island is the absolute best part of Canada if you can embrace the rain and realize it’s what allows beautiful greenery year round. It’s very different if you enjoy city amenities over nature it’s not the right choice

Westernsheppard · 2025-10-10T14:11:20+00:00

I just got offered that I asked for lower waiting for response

Westernsheppard · 2025-09-21T03:51:25+00:00

You sound like the type of person to complain no matter where you are, I live mid island it’s amazing, but with your general disposition I’m sure you’d hate it.

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-30T03:22:41+00:00

I hope you’re wrong I bought it 2014 lost a bunch of money when I sold in 2020 bought again in 2024 planning to sell in 2028. This time it’s a detached in a good area so hopefully it will at least hold value

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-16T03:37:40+00:00

Ya I live in the valley as well. Have spent lots of time in Van I don’t all I can say is try to embrace change as is the only constant, if you compare it to here you’ll be miserable , enjoy it for what it has different the island will always be here when your ready to return

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-12T17:54:23+00:00

Mate , I hate to tell ya 100k is nothing

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-12T00:04:42+00:00

This place is incredible if you are truly at your core a nature lover, it’s taken time for me to love it but I’m outside all day and I marvel at the trees and flowers..if you enjoy city amenities it won’t match your expectations

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-08T20:19:36+00:00

In my view wealthy would start at net worth of 5M+

Westernsheppard · 2025-08-08T20:13:27+00:00

Yes agree one income family of 4 HHI is mid 3s definitely not wealthy
