On TFSAs: just do it in 2024 folks. But only have one TFSA. Ideally a self-directed one. Sure, you can have multiple TFSAs but why bother. Too much to track. Just keep it simple. Own one and max it out if you can. My #TFSA TED Talk.

This new TFSA account makes no sense....how is this new account any better than just boosting the existing #TFSA contribution room; when some folks don't know how to use it, leverage it, let alone save with it for a house down payment? Sigh.

Use your TFSA as a retirement account. Max it out if you can as priority #1 . Use your RRSP as a retirement account. Max that out if you can as priority #2 . Rinse and repeat until financially independent.

Working on my latest dividend income update. Crazy to look back and see how far I've come. 10 years ago, I just wanted to learn what the heck a #dividend was and why it could matter. Tonight, as I write this post, another milestone is just around the corner.

I feel the DIY #investor has some natural enemies. Nobody wants you to save and invest on your own. Salesy financial advisors, money managers and insurance agents all want your money. Keep and invest as much as you can on your own. Choose wisely. My Ted Talk.

30-year mortgages are a terrible idea. Why don't we allow 10-year car loans? Maybe we should lower minimum payments for credit cards? This Conservative idea makes absolutely no sense. #elxn43 #ElectionsCanada

Looking forward to the rest of 2023 and then 2024 $CNQ "...the Company enhanced its free cash flow allocation policy to increase returns to shareholders to 100% of free cash flow when net debt reaches $10 billion." Likely $TOU will beat $CNQ to the special dividend.
