Thanks for the clarification. For the record, I did stat that I'm a "financial idiot". lol I was under the impression they were all managed, although for some, like gold, silver and copper ETFs, I did wonder what there was to manage. Again, I assumed they had managers choosing mining companies...

Wealth Simple, and I left some in Questrade to ride. I have TFSA and my kids' RESP at Wealth Simple. Their RESPs are doing better than my TFSA despite similar investments. This is how I see it, to buy and sell stocks you need to know what you're doing, and have a LOT in information available to...

Yes, I can attest. My bike was blown over twice while covered and on the centre stand. It took the second time for me to realize it wasn't some a**hole that pushed my bike over.

Tangerine and Scotia are practically the same bank. Same owner anyway. Scotia is their brick and mortar, while Tangerine is online only. I haven't dealt with RSPs, only TFSAs. I transferred from Tangerine to Questrade, then Tangerine to Wealth Simple after I found out Wealth Simple allows you...

That's a strange thing to say. There's only one thing that bacon doesn't improve the flavour of, and that's bacon. Because, you know, it's already bacon. 😂

Sounds simple enough. I'll take my son and dog out for a hike. The crown land isn't large, but should have plenty of game. If you're in Southeastern Ontario, you're likely familiar with it. It's the one on Safari Road. Funny story: I sat in a blind from early morning till mid afternoon a couple...

I want to, but I have no friends or relatives with property I can hunt on, or any that hunt. Crown land is scares around here, and I need a mentor to show me how to find the birds' track ahead of time so I'll know where to setup. I spend $40 on a tag a couple years ago after picking up a...

Funny, I say something similar. I swear by the Dog Training for Dummies book, and have told people the to techniques in that book work equally well for kids. I raise all 3 of my kids using that method. For instance, if you tell a dog "No", then it's "no", final. No changing your mind. If you...

I went with Origen Puppy. I used it with my Boxer (expected 8-10 year life span), and she lived to be 13 before we had to put her down for health reasons. Her niece, a Boxer/Husky/Border Collie mix, lived to be 15. We didn't use Origen their entire lives. We switched it up occasionally, but...

So, you ended up getting the exact same breed I suggested to you, but the size wifey wanted. Win-win. :ROFLMAO: Crongrats! I highly suggest you buy and read Dog Training for Dummies. You'll have no reason for obedience training if you follow that book.

This is were I ordered last. $35 + $20 shipping for $55. But 6 cans is $198 + $20 shipping for $218 for 6 cans. That's $36 per 250g can. Best price I can find...

I rarely get to Ottawa, but if I take a trip to Quebec to see family, it would be worth a stop. I've never heard of Naomi, Grace or Calabar. Are those brick and mortar stores? We have a few African stores in Brantford, but none carry it. I tried contacting the company in Tanzania for years. I'd...

Since my wife turned me onto her native Africafe with its great nutty and hint-of-cocoa flavour, I’ve struggled to find it. Her family always brings several large cans when they visit every few years, but the scamdemic put a stop to their visits—although they’re planning a trip next spring. For...

I should have used AI the rewrite my last comment. It's long, choppy, and likely difficult to follow. lol

I respectfully disagree. Propaganda finds a way in, you don't have to let it. Without getting political, think of it this way: You see a commercial for a Mastercraft screw driver. You aren't in the market for a screw driver and pay little attention to it. Next commercial break (or after a minute...

Not sure if I'm misunderstanding, but if you mean what I think you mean, that might be a common feeling with men because I feel the same way quite often. But then I look around at the people I interact with, the people I meet everyday, the people I know, and realize that I may not be the best...

My close group of friends consisted of 3 boys I grew up with. We lived on the same street and were friends since about 5-6 years old, and one came along at 11 years old. We knew each other better than we knew ourselves. Finished each other's sentences, had inside jokes that required just a look...

I still have a Facebook account, but only because I use Marketplace. On Android, go to Settings > Apps > App Notifications, and remove notification permission for FB. You'll never get another notification. You'll see the red badge on the Alerts tab when you go to Marketplace, but I ignore that...

I've also reduced my online footprint. I quit FB during the scamdemic. I'm now trying to avoid political posts because the reminder of just how corrupt the world has become is pretty stressful. Otherwise, I've always kept a very small circle.
