The Smith Manoeuvre - Make Your Mortgage Tax Deductible - My University Money - 0 views

Questrade review - 0 views

  •  
    I have been a Questrade client for a few years now, so I thought I would write up a Questrade review of my own.  Here's a Questrade promo code to give you $50 in free trades: a1b9d1d9 If you make 10 trades, they'll refund your $50 in free trades (from what I recall a few years back).   I was very very attracted to their $4.95 low commissions. They are a good basic online brokerage.

Gold vs McDonalds - My University Money - 0 views

  •  
    I still can't get over why people put so much stock in gold when the stock market hits a recession or when international markets in general hit turbulence.  It makes little sense to me that this is what people do in order to feel more secure.
