Warmer climates and rats love it. I was in Brisbane Australia designing a new road for buses job. That moved the adjacent freeway around to fit the bus road in. Well, no agency would agree to sharing commumication ducts. So we ended up with 5 -75mm ducts in the bottom half of the dividing...

I just hit thrift stores and buy good old Levis from back when they had more durability.

Cloudy days with north facing windows is the best soft light source. So embrace this often winter daylight condition.

Just a new term for a long established situation. Kind of like calling a long lasting incursion of a cold weather front in winter a Polar Vortex.

You dont have to wait for Trump for this to happen. I started in UTX, United Technologies about 12 years ago. It has morphed to RTX, Ratheon. Stock is up quite a bit recently on an order to make more Patriot missiles. I actually hold them mostly for their jet engine business. Not an easy...

You lived though a meh experience but learned from it. So that is a pretty cheap lesson when it comes to LL let downs.

Now, tangential to the guitar tale, but my now 94yo mom used to baby sit him when he was a toto and young kid.

My sleeper winner is Raytheon, RTX. I started in this position more than 8 years ago as United Technologies. They spun out Otis elevators, then Carrier air conditioners. I was in for the jet engine business. Takes an awful lot of money and experience to do a jet engine start up company. Wide...

Dear wife is a huge pageant fan. Usually we host a viewing party, and treat it like a horse race and make our own lists to gain bragging rights, etc. But this year she is on stage in a community theatre show, so not able to hold the party. She commented on watching first snippets on Youtube...

I'm with this answer. Everything in the question after first $100 theft is a red herring. If you made the purchases with a legit $100 nothing would change the subsequnet situation. So the sole loss is the intial stolen $100.

TD E series iused to be not a bad way for a small investor to start. Wealthsimple with their low buy in costs on ETF's has pulled ahead of e-series in that respect. I started investing with mutual funds about 35 years ago. There was nothing else for the small investor. But fees were the...

I own pieces of different telecoms. BCE has a fat divvy, and sliding share price. QBR is a good sized cel market in PQ. Telus does ok. Verizon has done well for me. ATT has done well also. Most recent upstart holding is TICO, for latin american cell carrier exposure. Yet to make a profit...
