Random Thoughts
Some thoughts for a Friday.
- New housing prices continue to hold steady with a 6.1% year over year price increase according to Stats Canada (up to November 2007). Most expensive year over year jumps were in Saskatoon, Regina, Edmonton and Winnipeg. How do you young folk afford these prices?
- Spent over 3/4 of an hour updating my Quicken accounts yesterday for my kids’ RESP accounts. TD Canada Trust’s Easyline Mutual fund on line interface really does need an ability to download transaction into Quicken or Microsoft Money. If anyone knows someone at TD Canada Trust, please put that on a wish list. It would be nice if you could do that for Canada Savings Bonds too!
- Unemployment numbers remained steady at 2.1% for December (year over year), however Employment slipped a little. Still amazing numbers to see given I remember unemployment numbers much higher when I started working.
- Monday things should look different here, well not here, but over at Blogspot, stay tuned, hopefully it all works smoothly.
Enjoy your weekend
