As the March 1st RRSP contribution deadline approaches, I’ve been relatively busy trying to get things in order. I must say that Questrade has become a large reason why this is happening. I am re-discovering and really appreciating Questrades’ services lately. Firstly, I realized not that long ago that I can trade mutual funds really [...]

Read Any Good Books Lately? You Know, All These Finance Books Say The Same Thing..
I’m becoming a library junkie, but I’m sort of proud of myself for doing so. Hell, up until a few years ago I barely read anything if it wasn’t on a glossy page with Maxim on the cover. Lately I’ve been picking up a TON of finance books and I have to be honest in [...]
Found My Investment Vehicle!.. Zoom Zoom!
I posted back on August 21st that I was looking for a spot to invest my Smith Maneuver money. I think I’ve found it! I had a few goals that I wanted to achieve with this money when invested.. and the criteria was as follows: low-risk low commissions automatic deductions? Or easy to purchase dollar [...]
Dragon’s Den – The Rich Get Richer..
Can someone PLEASE tell me why budding entrepreneurs head to the show Dragon’s Den? I’m trying to figure out what the benefit for the business owner is… I’ve been able to come up with just a few: having experienced rich people who’ve “been there done that” on your board of directors financial backing That’s all [...]

Are we heading back to better than par for the Canadian dollar?? Personally.. ya.. think so.. and I think it’s going to be there for awhile.. Here’s the latest chart chart from yesterday I have with the latest price and you can see that 1 Canadian Dollar will buy you 0.946 of a USD right [...]
Kids Want A New Car? Now This Is A Good Idea..
Robert Kiyosaki’s book Rich Dad, Poor Dad.. has a lot of good information. Without ‘spoiling’ it for everyone, the book centers upon the idea of obtaining ‘Assets’ over ones lifetime instead of ‘Liabilities’. It makes sense really.. assets make you money, where liabilities make you spend your money.. and usually that money is after-tax money. [...]
Still haven’t made a Tim Alerts trade.. why the hell not??
For the life of me.. I keep paying this guy $30 or whatever it is a month.. and yet.. I’m not taking advantage! Well, truthfully.. the reasons aren’t anyone’s’ fault, I think the reason is more of a funding problem at to why I’m not trading much using his recommendations. It’s certainly not from lack [...]
Ok, back to money matters..
I’ve sort of strayed from my financial blogging lately.. for that I apologize in case you were curious. I guess the reason that I’ve not posted much, is that I’m actually not DOING much. The markets for some mysterious reason keep going up, and for the life of me I’m waiting for a bit of [...]
Ok, so I’m all set up.. now where do I put my money?
Well, I’m anxious to get started, but having a tough time getting a hold of my banker. The fact that today is a holiday (for most people!), doesn’t help the fact. As you know, I’m doing the ‘Smith Manoeuvre‘ with my mortgage, and as such, I have free equity in my home that I am [...]
