Would that be someone you know Belguy? :))
The ad is pretty good but it's going to be creepy the next time I visit a hospital.
PS: Fan of the 1st Matrix movie. The rest were crap.
We felt it quite strongly here maybe because we are much closer to the epicenter. Apparently there was a 4.2 aftershock at 9:53 but I felt nothing.
Since, homeowner is able to pay cash for the condo, I'm not sure if renting is clearly the better option. Earning 3.3 percent ($900*12/$330,000) ($1,300 in rent minus ownership costs of $400 per...
Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll buy one. Hopefully "groundship69" will work for free shipping.

From what I understand, ETFs are reported to be redeeming gold in big numbers which is cited as a reason for gold's decline. I'm curious why you say the demand for gold is "going up big time".
XIRR provides an accurate picture of annualized returns of the average dollar in the portfolio. Sure, if one invests $100 on Dec/30 and has $110 on Dec/31, XIRR will compute the returns as 3650%+, so...
I find this news item hard to believe. Canadians are highly leveraged but they are *not* borrowing to invest in stocks. In fact, if you look at industry statistics, it is fixed income that is very...
If CAD depreciates against the USD, then yes, US returns will get juiced by the currency boost, all things being equal. The trouble is, all things are not equal. CAD depreciation may mean better...
