It’s Friday, I am on vacation, so here are some random thoughts from me:
- Canadian Capitalist pointed out a great Government of Canada ( CCTB Calculator )web site that lets you figure out how much you will be getting from the government (if you are a parent), in terms of Grants.
- An investment opinion from me is, Don’t buy stock in Dell Computers. I have had more issues with their order entry system than I would think is possible, and this is their business (i.e. take order, make computer, ship computer), if the first part of your business model still doesn’t work after 4 years (it’s a very long story), I can’t see you making a profit.
- What is open during Canada Day? I have no idea, now that it falls on a Sunday, but my guess is that most things will close on Monday, and I won’t get snail mail for about a week.
My Musings for the Week
- ATM Turns 50 ? ATM machines have been around for a long time now, which is amazing considering how they started. Johnny Cash machine?
- Housing Bubble When is the Next One ? While the data here is dated, it still is an interesting graph.
- Living Bankless Living bankless, is that even possible these days?
- Case Study: Refunds on Overcharging Last month we finally replaced my wife’s phone with Bell Mobility, due to it being “old” and it also didn’t work reliably (odd battery habits and tended to not answer a lot either).
- Canadian Household Net Worth Up
- Free Association Friday #MoneyTalk
Enjoy yourselves, it’s the weekend!!!
