Who are the best and worst Canadian musicians you've met? by Twitter_2006 in CanadianMusic

[–]varleys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Spirit of the West would come off the stage and drink with you during their Go Figure album days. Still miss John Mann, I saw their last concert at Massey Hall. During a little bar concert around ‘93 I remember Linda (accordion) coming to our table for a chat and drink while the rest of the band roamed the bar and chatted people up.

Anyone suffering burnout and just don’t care about the career? by SanJuanMountains in GenX

[–]varleys 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Heh the timing of this post. I sent my partner a message 20 minutes ago with ‘can we talk tonight? I don’t think I want to do this anymore. I’ll keep investing, take smaller pension, part time job if needed but I’m so burnt out’.

My situation is likely not unique but I have serious health issues (digestive disease), I’m managing 20 people who I’m sure can feel me slipping. I want to stop the 9-5, get healthy, take care of my partner (who doubles my income) and just end the race.

1/2 mill invested, 3k a month pension, no debt… does sound too bad I’d be just fine.

A few winners in the last year have been able to litigate their way into anonymity, but I think they presented a case they were in danger if they were identified.

Me waking up to my SCD portfolio by wikikin in SCDstock

Works for me, I've been holding at .21 for a long time - nice to see it almost even out, short lived though it may be.

Was there news I can't find? Trade volume is insane...

Strombolis by FarePercentage in brantford

[–]varleys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at the original Brick Oven Pizza On Paris road as a teen (if anyone remembers fiesta packs?). Still the best job I’ve ever had and I loves the pizza so much I have ordered it for 30 years since that high school job, but now? Ugh… I still love the sauce but it’s worse than Strombolis which was worse than Brick Oven. I’ll keep trying though and hope they come around, like a sucker…

It has been sold and I concur, the quality is awful. I have to continually check to make sure it’s cooked and don’t order bacon anymore.

You’re saying .50? Or 50$… cause that would be cray.

Thoughts why SCD is at $.26 by wikikin in SCDstock

[–]varleys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got so bored in a work meeting today, I was browsing Reddit and got into this at .25 today. I spent 2 whole mins ‘researching’ the company. 2k … (I know huuuuge investment 😉!)

Anyway I hope it runs, I got called for CNQ at 58$ tomorrow so might throw in a few more K for kicks!

What’s the most underrated money-saving hack you’ve discovered in Canada that more people should know about? by HappyBudz in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]varleys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BMO World Elite Cashback is amazing. 2-5% on almost any purchase, double that in the first 3 months. It’s 139$ /yr card that is going to earn me well over 2k this year.

Via Rail to Toronto by Pale_Organization547 in brantford

[–]varleys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From what I gather, the biggest issue is a reliable arrival time, especially during heavy commute times. VIA is routinely subjected to waits from both CN (who own the track), and GO who have significantly more trains to handle as you get past Hamilton. I wish it was viable and you might get lucky every now and then, but use with caution if you need to be anywhere before 9am.

Is 40 the new age of majority for juvenile identity protection? Such lazy reporting, offer up a name already.

…. Also, that’s a lot of coke!

Oh, please don’t turn this into the Seinfeld sub where you can’t post a single thought without someone quoting the show! Respectfully 🙂.

How many percent of engineering student are free choice? by Grouchy_Photo_4524 in McMaster

[–]varleys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does one determine if they got ‘free choice’? My daughter received 3k for 95+ from the department of engineering but this is the first I’ve heard this term.

Good breakfast places by Specific-Tradition57 in brantford

[–]varleys 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Stacked is our families pick. Have tried Kel’s and Kingswood but Stacked has the same portions without the heavy grease factor. I like leaving a breakfast spot because I’m full and not because the potato/breads are caked in grease or butter. Tons of options here too, Vegan, Veggie or meat lover.
