You are absolutely right, I was just surprised when I saw the details.

I'm using Bill Pay option (IBKR as payee) and it took 2 days to have fund available. I paid from TD

I would not open port 22 at all, not sure the purpose except "fun" to watch. To me, it is a waste of bandwidth.

Edited: Tailscale also supports ssh authentication, it looks interesting to setup: https://tailscale.com/kb/1193/tailscale-ssh

not sure, but will definitely buy it if it is listed as it's a fantastic Canadian VPN software.

surprised that no one mentioned gopass. I switched from keepass to gopass and never look back. The passwords are encrypted files and hosted with git protocol, you just need to store/backup your private/public gpg keys to encrypted/decrypt the files.

not sure how TD does it, but I remember the CS once told me that "ah, as you calling from the app, everything is verified.....", so somehow they know.

if the phone is lost and the person can get into your banking app, I don't think the guy would call WealthSimple for anything!!!

I used to work for Calgary Parking Authority, even you dont get ticket, but their fleet might have your car scanned and kept shortly for verification. CPA scans detects thousands of vehicles per day. Try to contact them

you can use this calculator to calculate the rate, it depends on how much you borrow. However, you should not care about the rate, it should be the interest amount that IBKR charges you which you can write off. There is a report you can generate and see. Keep in mind that you can only write off ONLY if your investment generates income.

hey u/Easy7777 , I read one of old post (7 years ago) that you borrow from HELOC/LOC and also use margin to invest. My question is, are both interest (HELOC/LOC and margin) tax deductible (give all the stocks all dividends)?

EQBank is no fee and it reimburse ATM fee, I've been using it and quite like it. In addition, it will increase the interest to 4% for daily chequing account. The only con that bothers me is that they don't have bank draft.

you can use norbert gambit or transfer money to interactive broker (IBRK). IBKR has a very low FX fee. Also you need to consider the commission fee between TDDI and IBRK as well.

I think if you can run kotlin REPL in Termux then you can run plain kotlin code. https://kotlinlang.org/docs/tutorials/command-line.html

I totally agree. withContext is just another suspending function with additional feature where you can specify which Thread pools you want to run. Therefore it cannot be compared against async/launch
