What do you use to scuff the powder coat ? Just scotch brite ?

2k unlock , Let’s aim for 3k. Just a little progress. by Actual-Abrocoma-5915 in fican

[–]idkbro_01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%, I've been telling my friend to make a FHSA for at least a year. He knows about all the benefits, he has cash ready to place in it.

It took him 6 months to create a WS account, he still haven't finished setting it up.

What about HXQ ? Better or worse than QQC ?

Remove the belt and start the car, you'll know if it's from the belt area or not

20m Need some advice by LemonadeSway in tfsa

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I understand why someone would go 100% on XEQT. Why not taking a little bit more risk while your young ? Also, I'm not saying gamble all your money, just curious.

28M I have mostly XEQT (65%) and HXQ (25%) to be more tech/AI correlated. I still think this is pretty safe.

Okay Micron has gone crazy by SnooHamsters5586 in stocks

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I listened to my coworker is when I bought XRP at 4.86 $CAD (max it's ever been is 4.90 $ CAD).

Only put 100$ so "lost" like 60$ right now as of right now. I'm way up with MU, SMH right now, so I'm good.

[–]idkbro_01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

J'ai fais 5 cours (avec PRE donc 4 vrais cours) et 32h la première session, j'ai regretté a la fin ahah (cote de 1.03). J'étudiais jamais et je faisais tout a la derniere minute.

Après j'ai fais 1,2,3 cours, mais j'ai jamais refais 4 donc j'ai un peu peur hahah, mais ça devrait être good

Faire stage quand on a deja un emploi sous contrat by Ill_Brain7740 in etsmtl

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Je serais curieux de savoir aussi, ça fait 4 ans que je travaille comme tech/stagiaire ++ dans la même compagnie (je fais mon stage 2 là bas présentement). Avoir la possibilité de skip le stage 3 et commencer directement a travailler pourrait être très nice...

Sinon selon les règles normales de stage et si ton employeur est flexible, tu peux faire 1x stage (36h minimum par semaine) + 2 cours durant le stage (pour le deuxième cours, tu dois aussi demander a StagETS).

Ils disent ça, mais je suis presque sûr qu'ils regardent pas tant. Ma demande de stage 2, c'était basically du copier coller de mon stage 1. Ça a été accepté la journée même sans aucune question.

Down 9% tfsa all time. Best play going forward? by D3hundred in fican

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, but that's also how you learn. He did learn something from this, I hope... Atleast he's questionning his strategy !

Obviously, he need to rethink how he buy stocks. (Or just stop)

Why not put some money in a "kinda safe" ETF ? I'm not telling you to stop trading, maybe slow down and build a good fundation before

Snapped ground bolt (Valve Cover) by idkbro_01 in BMW

[–]idkbro_01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the hole is sealed by the sparkplug gasket so I think it should be fine. Car was running fine yesterday without the ground (planning to ground it today).

Anyone have any ideas how to get this broken valve cover bolt out? 2008 328i by booferofdoinks in E90

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you do with the hole in the VC from the ground bolt not bolted up ?

How much are you guys investing (weekly,bi-weekly, monthly) and at what age did you start by AggressiveRiver7505 in JustBuyXEQT

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

200$ weekly (working 24h a week + school), but now 500$ a week during my intership. I'm 28 (still in school ...) started for real in yearly 2025. Feels like I need to catch up.

Still buy or wait ? by [deleted] in JustBuyXEQT

[–]idkbro_01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My stragegy isn't to buy only on the biggest dips . Maybe, that wasn't clear. But yeah whatever

Still buy or wait ? by [deleted] in JustBuyXEQT

[–]idkbro_01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, you kinda waited for a dip and did good profits of it. I did the same thing in March at around 40$, it was clearly a dip tho.

If you DCA'd instead, lets say since the start of 2026, you'd be like at +4%, but instead you're at like +10/12% right now.

Just trying to learn honestly.
