It does, however it goes up in smoke sometimes as well.

Why are you complaining? They are building much needed housing in Canada, aren't they?? /s

Call it a plan, call it common sense, I don't care as long as it's actually being done. So far, there have been lots of talks about this emergency but no real action on the housing front.

Checking - Tangerine

Savings - Tangerine or EQbank

Credit cards - Tangerine, Brim, Amex

Investing - Questrade

I also use a credit union's services for all the same services.

I've mostly kept with free online or cheap accounts. Was with a big bank before but didn't like the fees, and generally big banks have old and clunky web interfaces.

I do feel like managing this many accounts is a pain, and sometimes I do think about a one big bank solution. But, I can't justify the fees.

No way he waits another year without a trophy, aging to 31, just for a free move to United to have a chance to win something. And Tottenham letting him go for free??

At least with Bayern, that's a free league cup and competition in Champions league.

Can't build wealth when half or more of the income goes towards rent or that 6% 1million mortgage.

Wealth disparity increasing, cost of housing increasing, GDP/capita decreasing, productivity decreasing. This is not the "The Great Reset" that I was envisioning after COVID19. I was dubious of course, but I really thought there's a chance of more progressive policies. But instead we just have the feds subsidizing electric vehicles tech.

Home prices in Ontario have reached a point where they are pulling money out of other sectors of the economy and creating more challenges for business, warns a new report from the Ontario Chamber of Commerce.

As Ontarians spend more on housing, the report says, they have less money for other goods and services. The situation has resulted in “wide-ranging” implications for business in the province.
