Video: Sunlife vs. Manulife

I compare #Sunlife vs. #Manulife #stocks, looking at #dividends, #cashflow, #pe #ratios and the stocks’ histories. Manulife has only recently escaped a #tradingrange, and started its #appreciation, while Sunlife has been a decent #capital appreciation stock for a while.

Video: How to Spend Money

This video is about people who have been #saving their whole #lives and now have trouble #spending #money. We have trouble with #decumulation. The video discusses being #mindful about spending on #experiences, knowing what your #values are so that you gain from your spending, including #altruism and #donations. Using a #budget is also recommended, to know how much you can and should spend, to enjoy the fruits of your #labor.

Updated list of Canadian dividend payers and what kind of distribution they pay

For a #dividend #investor, using non-registered accounts, how the dividends get #taxed is important. I had previously compiled, and just brought up to date, a list of all publicly-traded #Canadian dividend payers. I painstakingly found what kind of #distributions the 500+ companies pay. The list is available here. I also provide the location you should check prior to buying the stock to confirm the #taxation on the distributions. If you invest in Canadian dividend payers in a non-registered account, find your companies in this list.

Find your combined provincial and federal tax table on taxtips.ca, but you can see below there is a significant difference in taxes for Canadian Eligible Dividends, Capital Gains, and everything else. This is why I compiled the list, and hope it is useful.

Video: Small Cap vs. Large Cap Companies

The video is about #differences between #smallcap #stocks and #large #companies. I also compare #growth and #value #investing.

We look at #Risk and #Volatility, #Growth #Potential, #Liquidity, #Dividends, #Market #Influence, #Management and #Governance, Access to #Capital and #Diversification. I describe what I look for in my #investments, such as #capitalgains, #PEratio, #profits and #cashflow, and #dividendpayers.

Video: Wealth Building Strategies by Net Worth

I walk you through what your main #priorities should be at each #stage of #networth and show you what #changes (and what stays the same) as your #investment #portfolio begins to grow. You have different #priorities at a negative net worth compared to when you’re at over a #million. We look at #mortgages, #debt, #creditcard debt, #studentdebt, living beyond your means and #lifestyle creep, the importance of #insurance, an #emergencyfund, #saving #rate, #interest #rates, using #index #ETFs, #bonds, #privateequity and #realestate. The importance of #financialplanning, #tax #planning and living an appropriate #lifestyle is also mentioned.

Video: Going to In-Person Investing Seminars

I like to go to in-person #Investing #Seminars so I can #learn in-person, talk with #like-minded #people, and maybe pick up a tidbit here and there, and hear different #ideas about #portfolio design. This is the #story of my first #Edmonton investing seminar.

Video: How to Start Investing

I get asked very often about how to start #investing. Make sure you #start #early and as soon as possible. Find an #investingthesis, get your #riskprofile so you know what to invest in, and then use #ETFs in a #TFSA or #RRSP #account in a #lowcost #brokerage to start making #monthly #contributions.

Video: A Canadian Retirement Study

I discuss a May 2024 Harris #Poll on #Canadian #retirement, done on behalf of #EdwardJones. We discuss what the survey found as #keys to #success in retirement, what financial course corrections one can make, like #reducing #debt, #maximizing #savings, following a #plan and a #budget, and getting #financial #education and #Financialadvice. It is important to #testdrive your retirement first if you can, and two-thirds of #Millennials are concerned that their #parents or #in-laws may not have enough money to live comfortably in retirement.
