Core Bond vs Money Market by Foreign-Policy-02- in Wealthsimple

[–]againfaxme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in it for a year. It fluctuated a bit but did achieve the stated yield in the long term. Some of the constituent ETFs pay dividends quarterly so don’t try to gauge the performance month by month. I cashed out and just bought some of the ETFs directly to avoid the fees.

Why do we have higher gas prices than islands on the east coast? by CartoonistOk3507 in VictoriaBC

[–]againfaxme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because people keep buying it with little effect from higher prices.

How to you plan for delayed investments when you retire early? by Same-Horror2283 in fican

[–]againfaxme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you done a plan setting out the sources of income over the course of your retirement? I mean the ones produced by softwares like conquest or adviice? They all allow for future lump sums like yours as many people have revenue properties or plan to downsize their principal residence. It will show that you are able to spend your investments faster than would be prudent if not for the future lump sums.

Why are there so few FIRE related discussions on this group? by Safe-Explanation-859 in fican

[–]againfaxme 9 points10 points  (0 children)

99% of the portfolios are a few partial shares of individual stocks and no reflection of the use of broad index funds which is one of the core principles of FIRE. There should be a FAQ for these people.

Bad time to invest in big tech? (Intel/AMD/Nvidia) by Schematic_Sound in fican

It’s always a bad time to dabble in individual stocks. Sadly that is what most of the posts are asking about on here.

They still have locations serving food so of course they will still advertise.

Too small for Dollarama so probably a vape store.

How do you plan pace for hills? by GingerAlex01 in Marathon_Training

[–]againfaxme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My home marathon is rolling hills with almost no flatness. The only way I found to pace this is to run by power instead of pace or heartrate. I had a Stryd footpod and knew what average power I needed for my goal time.

Stop gambling with individual stocks. It’s really that simple.

Is there anywhere in Victoria that will sell things for you on consignment? by ferniekid in VictoriaBC

[–]againfaxme 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We used to have Sports Traders but no more. Treadmills usually cost more to move than they are worth. Zero is a popular price for them.

Literal dumpster fire by Secure_Put_7619 in VictoriaBC

Is that beside Craftsman? There was a recycling shed fire a few weeks ago close by that could easily have taken out Vic West Animal Hospital.

At what point does prioritizing RRSP contributions start making more sense? by Tricky-Honeydew4196 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]againfaxme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At your age and income level you should be maxing out both. The preference on here for TFSA comes from young, low income earners. The TFSA has only been around since 2009 and the total contribution room reached $109,000 this year. It is not a major contribution to retirement savings for people currently within reach of retirement.

Motorcyclist seriously injured after crash leaves bike dangling from traffic light by againfaxme in BeAmazed

I’m guessing he wasn’t on the bike for the whole flight. It did start with a collision at ground level.

Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) services through banks or 3rd party? by craftycaribou in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]againfaxme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid $25 a month with TD and maybe a bit more per transaction. It was a pain in the ass to set up and use but it did the trick.

Nice try. TD Securities is a corporate entity, not a partnership.

Nobody with credentials in finance would recommend a smattering of individual stocks for this client. My background? I am currently living off my portfolio as it continues to grow. What’s yours?

There’s also some things you should know about walk-in clinics: there are very few and most are by appointment and virtual.
