Nor does TD. They don't even do phone notifications of logins. Ironically i signed up with one of the local credit unions in Toronto to take advantage of a high interest savings account for a future tax debt of which I am sitting on th

That is great, so you should be able to somewhat relate! I think we should just all have a little more empathy. There is a lot of hate going around and somewhat like in the tech systems many of us work on daily, even problems that seem simp

I find this pretty upsetting to read. Moving country has significant risk and difficulty, have you tried it? I have. The challenges today are not about finding clean water or basic shelter no, but if you have ever had to figure out healthca

I find Amazon gets my voice significantly better than my GH, but I agree with you otherwise. I find the GH is much more useful, the Alexa doesn't seem capable of doing anything significant for me and it sits there never been talked to

Interest being deductible is just one way of incentive ownership. In Canada they don't make interest deductible for your primary residence (you can deduct it for rental properties however), but you're exempt from Capital Gains tax

I'd think that VR and AR have possibilities, they're interesting technologies that no one has really landed an amazing use case for. I like to think of it as "Technology innovations enable industry creation", so look for

Look for what’s next in tech trends and focus there. Mobile apps were something special 5-6 years ago, now it’s just a commodity. You’ll do much better living closer to the edge than app dev unless you have something special to offer.

Yeah i agree with this comment. The only thing I’d say is that the point is hard to make in a friendly way. People borrow without consideration all the time, be it money, belongings or even favours. In all these cases there is little respec

Agreed, i didn’t talk about option c) time. However, even if we extend the analysis i cannot get it there with ease. It is a shame we cannot just ask her about her contribution amounts and timing! I don’t recall the source but i was recentl

Is it just me or do you get the feeling it's possible her bosses may have been doing inside trades and she just got lucky by a) not knowing what was going on and b) copying the trades? I love the story either way, it just jumped out to

It’s an interesting point. Having no medical / bio knowledge, is argue that from a logical perspective it could easily go both ways. 1) we model them to talk because we do 2) we model them not to talk because we don’t recognize their f

Haha, funny because the first time I made it I did something a novice should never try and made it with 40% whole wheat (because i bought the wrong flour by accident...). It's certainly a great bread to make in terms of timing, this co

On the topic of bread for a moment: I recently started making my own bread. I bought a book on the topic by Ken Forkish "Flour water salt yeast", and I've fallen in love with the process. The recipes are great, but the first

Sometimes you’ve got to double down to see the initial investment pay off. Depends who was in on the round, but a good investor who follows through to help get the outcome is a special kind of partner.
