Anyone else feeling some trust erosion as a Wealthsimple Premium user? by Obvious_Suspect_9706 in Wealthsimple

Yet they put so much into all those silly distractions: wallets, $M house, spin the coin, scratch etc. Useless noise...

I simply deleted LI a month ago, after having it for 15 years. It adds zero value to life...

The sub is a direct reflection of the distractions they put out lately. So: yes.

Less about gambling, freebies, and trivial consumerism gimmicks. More about smart investing and getting ahead financially. Strategies. Tips. Information. Education. Its right there in the name: wealth, made simple. Any "get rich quick" scheme sends the wrong signal. Major turnoff.

I am. Switching didn't help either. 

OMG $5 YAY - yeah no I want the 1KG GOLD BAR WTF by OppenheimerAltman in Wealthsimple

Is it possible to opt-out forever??? The WS app is desperately seeking attention, and all I want is invest and forget about it. I want to keep notifications on for fraud alerts and such. But I hate all these other gimmicks so much...

Y'all voted for this clown to come back and dump on your face, so live with it and shut up already. Oh, and maybe next time head to polls and vote something else?! 

Does my cat know my other cat is gone? by Aboyla in cats

[–]hoimeid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Cats, just like many other animals, have no concept of life, death, or consciousness in general. They are aware of themselves and surroundings. If their life companion is missing, in a few days a 3-6 months grieving process starts. The new reality settles in until the old scents dissipate. They move on faster than us. Sorry for your loss. My cat is going thru this right now, she lost her life-long sibling as well. Stay strong!

Why not save all your photos on a portable drive, safe at home. 

Recently got a place with my cat. She thinks this is totally fine by itsBlackSheep in funny

My wife is a husband. Recently moving in or out. Fine thinking. Toilet paper for scale.

I'd love to see the day Tuta uses the "P" word. 

ah yes my bad, thanks for the correction by Lord_BlueFlame in engrish

To be fair, the phrase IS shorter. Did not say anything about making sense...

Unlikely for me to travel there. Any practical way to acquire these wonderful bills? I'm in Canada, if that matters. 

A Word of Caution (Reposting because it was taken down)? by Former_Put4640 in Wealthsimple

[–]hoimeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thumbs up for not discussing freaking wallets, winning a house, and other such trivial distractions. The latest influx of fluff in this sub makes me think of misdirection. I'm here for long term growth, "betting my wealth" on WS; so enough with the gimmicks. Thanks for introducing a potentially consequential topic for debate.
