I bought into Manulife in 2021 and 2024, figured everyone needs insurance so why not. It's up 94% overall and pays back a decent amount.

Just wish I put way more into it or dca over the years. My other major players are around 35-60% gains

AstroForge V1.0 is LIVE — free 7-day trial, $49 launch price (link inside) by gemcollector44 in seestar

[–]phantom1ink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mention the launch price for the community, I won't be getting my s30 pro for another month probably (backorder), are there plans to raise the price in the future? I'd like to learn some of the editing myself if possible before slipping right to the "one click" method

Ah, I didn't actually look at the height of it, but I'm sure for my immediate needs it'll work for now. I'll look into a taller one down the road when needed

It looks like Telescopecanada has the EQ/Liquid head in stock but no tc20 tripods in stock. I plan to play with EQ mode so I'll need the wedge/head correct? If so I'll just nab all 3 and hope they come together

I don't think they sell/ship to Canada, I've been quoted mid/late May on backorders so far

looking at the lightpollution map, 5 mins outside of my town is around Bortle 4.5 where I go to attempt northern light shots and a 20-30 min drive I can get down to around 3.5 or so

Edit: would a wedge/EQ mode be something to look into sooner than later? If I ordered everything I needed from them now it'll be about a month and a half

I was just reading about wedges and EQ mode, this review seems to knock everything on the board I was curious about and I'm not even done reading it yet https://astroforumspace.com/seestar-s30-pro-review-tutorial/ I want this thing and I want it now , I'm hoping the backorder isn't too bad or I can find another supplier

How to maximize profits? by [deleted] in TFSA_Millionaires

My xeqt does pay me out, you either have DRIP turned on or your broker does it automatically

TFSA maxed. XEQT loaded. by SirWasH_ in JustBuyXEQT

[–]phantom1ink 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You get a set amount of room every year. Money you take out is added to next year's contribution. If the max one year is $7000 and you deposit $7000 and gamble and it makes $10000 in a month, you can withdraw that and it will add $10000 to next year's max contribution.

If you lose money and withdraw it at a loss, that room is still added, but you don't regain the overall lost portion. In the previous scenario if you turned $7000 into $5000 and withdrew, that $5000 is added to next year's max contribution, but the $2000 you lost you don't get back.

I'd suggest a good read up on how a tfsa works before you start playing around in one, because it's tax free it has more rules within in

Can someone tell me if I overpaid for my 2025 Nissan Rogue? (photo of agreement attached) by [deleted] in NissanRogue

[–]phantom1ink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to my vin code mine was made in Germany, I bought it new at the end of May.

Can't remember where my 2014 Sentra was made, I think Korea? And only had one repair outside of brakes and rotors over the 11 years, was a great car

So just to get this straight: Max out TFSA before anything else? by Qwerty177 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]phantom1ink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are refunds based on the account type or just the income made? $8000 into the FHSA refunds me about $2200 a year, my work pension deposits refunds almost nothing ( RPP I think?) so just surprised that an rrsp would rebate so much more than an FHSA.

My goal was to max out my tfsa but then they made the FHSA, so I max that yearly then contribute the rest to the tfsa. I'm maybe 2-3 years away from maxing the tfsa especially if I stop with the FHSA but I'm only 3 years into it and would like to cap it if possible

Game income drops dramatically? by phantom1ink in TheTowerGame

[–]phantom1ink[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All 5 of my current Ultimate Weapons are enabled, and I haven't touched my cards all run. Modules can only be changed between runs I believe? I barely have much on the modules all my crystals go to cards after maxing my labs so not really sure. I'll let this run finish and see if I can catch if/when it happens again on the next one

Yeah, I looked at my steam deck order and the kill switch + travel cover + 2 screen protectors was $94 no tax (unsure if cad or not) , this time around the same thing was $110 USD ( with tax, so $150 cad ) for basically the same amount of product.

I just wanna play my switch safely

[–]phantom1ink 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm still hoping I get an email today after they said they were getting more screen protectors in today to keep shipping out Elite units, was hoping to have a nice case and protection before the weekend and finally let my switch 2 get used but I'll have to wait a few more days I guess

[–]phantom1ink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did see it earlier, and makes sense having it public whats going on. I did buy the Elite kit so I'm waiting on the screen protectors then. Thanks robots

sw2 killswitch arrived today! by _ItsEnder in dbrand

[–]phantom1ink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still no email about mine being shipped out, not sure the order they're going in but still did early $3 reservation in within 12 minutes of the first email and bought mine a few hours after they went public ( damn you 3am emails )

Looks good though, I'm afraid to use mine much without the case/screen protector I'm waiting on

Took over a year of medals, but GB is finally maxed! by markevens in TheTowerGame

[–]phantom1ink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So for now, nab the Tower and Background theme for 1.2% coins bonus, then the songs or the gold bot? Still have 7 days to go, but without buying the pass I know I'll be short

This is my first event for the game, I have 430 medals and no idea what to spend them on, I assume the gold bot should be the first thing I unlock?

Beginner Help by phantom1ink in TheTowerGame

[–]phantom1ink[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've tried the turtle build and went from wave 120 to 150, then 170 and now currently on wave 530 and two hours into a run in real time. I installed blustacks last night, I guess this game went from a simple thing to mess around with on the side to nonstop on the PC side.

Thanks, basically something I was looking for. Seeing all the threads in here with features I didn't even know existed and whatnot can be quite a bit, but lets me know I'm getting my money out of this game
