Random Thoughts: Stay In Balance

In a week where I discussed my investing tactics, balance is the important topic to remember. All things need balance, and ensuring your investments and retirement strategies are in good balance is very important, too much of anything can be a bad thing. 

Random Financial Thoughts

Of the financial bloggers I read, these articles caught my attention:

• The Canadian Capitalist did an update on his Sleepy Mini Portfolio (I base one of my RRSP’s on this set of index funds). Remember the importance of re-balancing in this type of strategy.
• One Caveman is going into semi-retirement (a notion I toy with every month or so these days as well), in Thank You For Joining Me On My Journey.
• Canadian Financial DIY is asking whether Claymore is Being Sneaky about Showing Fees on it’s ETFS? Sounds sneaky to me. 
• Michael James comments on the upcoming Entrust Shareholders Vote on a Takeover where he has a stake in the outcome. 
• Larry MacDonald is Praying for the Vanguard takeover of iShares, which hopefully will bring lower MERs.
• Preet at Where Does All My Money Go, says the Countdown Begins, but this is for a new venture for him on the W Channel, stay tuned!
• Four Pillars wrote about Creating a Fake Reputation and his experience in these areas. Go with your gut, and if it feels bad, it’s bad, is not bad advice.

Looks to be a nice weekend here in Ottawa, get out and enjoy it!
