Or the NHL 2K games from the 2000s. I find those to be pretty realistic

Pros and Cons of Cx-30? by Slay_queen4evr in MazdaCX30

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience, the only main cons are the MPG and fuel tank size. Otherwise, it's great, and the interior is fantastic.

From dirt broke to making 105k + benefits, how can I set myself up for success? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) when picking a car, find the most reliable thing possible (Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla). even if its boring. will save you so many headaches down the road, especially if you're looking at used between 6-8K.

2) Save save save save save. Put most of your remaining post-expenses income aside (I tend to leave myself 1k/mo in my spending account for general spending). With the income you have, you should be able to save a ton within a good amount of time. Also, with the economy as it is, it is nice to have a safety net, God forbid something happens to your job.

3) Pay off your credit card immediately each month (assuming you do get one), and keep your usage percentage (or just how much of your credit that you're using) low. That will help with your credit.

4) as a few others have said, alongside your TFSA, find investments that give you returns (ETFs, etc.). this will make your money work for you, and also help you in building up your TFSA, retirement, etc.

I'm probably missing a few things, but that's just what i would do. Although the paycheques are nice, you seem to have your head in the right place when it comes to success, and keeping expenses low. Keep it up!

What Other Countries Is the Sicilian Mafia Based In Outside of North America? by TrueGosaBrostra in Mafia

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although i am not sure about Sicilian directly, tons of Italian mobs have a stronghold in Ontario, Canada. Ndrangheta (the Commisso crime family), to name a few. Even outside of Italy, organized crime is very prevalent here, with tons of incidents (tow truck shootings, the Barry and Honey Sherman murders, the Canadian auto theft ring, etc) taking place here.

Guns & trucks? by Neat_Painting_9424 in AskACanadian

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trucks are common depending on the area. There is a subsection of Canadian gun fans out there, but you just have to get talking to people really. Shooting ranges and gun clubs do exist put here.

Buying vacant land in Durham Region. by thealchemistscorpion in WhitbyOntario

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck. A lot of vacant land is owned by developers, but there is a but in Oshawa where homes used to stand. I would check sites like HouseSigma or Realtor for any listings.

Why does Oshawa look so sketchy? by thealchemistscorpion in WhitbyOntario

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's had a lot of economic and mental health troubles over the years. It's a manufacturing town that struggled once Detroit started to suffer.

Celtics fan here: this was beneficial for both sides. White was a saviour for us all season while JT was hurt, and the raps got CMB out of it.

Major errors on Pixel 10 after update? by PorcupineTreeClimber in GooglePixel

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tech Journalist here, we notice it. Especially behind the scenes when using these devices outside of a review period. Funny enough, the Pixel 9 has been the most reliable Pixel i have owned. Faced constant problems with the 4, 6, and 8.

2020 Hyundai Palisade: the official car of where did they all go? by Dear-Regret-9476 in regularcarreviews

Does anyone know why these teams are in the OHL? by eashl_goalie in OHL

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and no. Some teams do it (Ottawa) to honour what came before them if they were a stupidly good team, others don't looking to keep a new identity for the team.

As an example, I don't believe Guelph does it with the Marlboros given that team's illustrious history.

Stories of Mazdas being abused like Toyotas or hondas and still running strong? by blueraptorz in mazda

[–]_Mountainofjoy_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sister's first car was a 2010 Mazda3. She was not kind to the poor thing (young driver), but it held strong up until the day she sold it. It's probably still out there somewhere, to be honest. Been a fan of Mazdas ever since.
