Auditing A Class - My University Money - 0 views

  •  
    There's a few things I would do differently if I was to redo my university experience. One of those things would be to audit a few classes. Audit is kind of a vague term, but it basically means dropping in on a class that you aren't "taking" or getting credit for.

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.

Young And Thrifty - Saving Generation Y - 0 views

  •  
    I decided to do a little research and educate myself on what the nuts and bolts of corporate class funds were. I wish I could say that I found a great investment opportunity, but unfortunately I'm fairly certain they are just another financial instrument cooked up the banking industry to separate you from your investment dollars.

Young And Thrifty - Saving Generation Y - 0 views

  •  
    Everyone loves a good rant about gasoline.  I know because I pumped gas for a few years as a teenager, and got the heat from way too many travellers who truly believed that I had set the price right before they got there just to screw with them.

Wouldn't It Be Nice If All Credit Card Issuers Were Like Tarjeta Naranja? - 0 views

  •  
    What if your credit card issuer sent you an apology in the form of flowers if you were dissatisfied? What if, instead of treating you like a number, you felt as though you were treated like a friend? That's philosophy behind Argentina's Tarjeta Naranja, a local credit card on the verge of going international.

Book Review: The Paradox of Choice - Why More is Less - 0 views

  •  
    Choice is something that has always interested me. It is the reason why I started casually studying economics-the study of how people choose. I was always intrigued of when some people are presented with the same choice, some of them take much longer to arrive at a decision than others.

  •  
    Since the markets are down 10% since March, it might be a good idea to pick up some shares while you can and rebalance your portfolio (and not do your annual contribution of shares to your ETF Portfolio in March like I did!)

    I'm not sure if the book store market near you is as cornered as the one I live in, but growing up near Winnipeg, MB, the monster chain of Chapters came in and destroyed the competition.

    I know most of you are wondering how it is possible to save money at the bar, especially since your guard goes down once you're a little buzzed and you forget all about frugality.  It took me about three years to discover the pattern that was common among older students at the pub.
