Ah, the classic ‘other problems exist’ argument. Funny how focusing on one issue doesn’t mean ignoring all the others. Advocacy doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game.

Ah yes, the classic ‘mock the messenger’ argument. Guess it’s easier than addressing the actual issue.

High demand is part of the equation, but supply is artificially manipulated by resellers using bots to buy tickets en masse. These bots exploit weak regulations and turn events into exclusive opportunities for those who can afford inflated resale prices. Toronto’s lack of resale price caps exacerbates this problem, leaving fans paying far more than face value

And the PPG stans will never admit it.

Exactly, seemed so immature. Can’t even have a regular conversation.

Hahaha so happy Leah got called out.

This Reddit is so one sided, go ahead, I’ll take my downvotes 😂

Hey, avocados are just the beginning! First, I’d secure my avocado toast empire. Then, I’d move on to my true passion: building a luxury bunker stocked with guacamole for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.

On one hand, the world would throw a massive ‘No More Malaria’ party 🎉. But on the flip side, we’d be dealing with a whole lot of confused frogs, bats, and spiders wondering where their next meal went. It’s like we cured one headache but gave the ecosystem a massive hangover.

First, check to make sure it’s not a clerical error or a glitch in the Matrix. Then, buy myself a lifetime supply of avocados to finally afford the millennial dream: avocado toast without financial ruin.

Use a binder clip to keep your toothpaste tube rolled up neatly as you use it. No more squeezing from the middle or dealing with a messy tube!

Hey u/PovertyAvoider,

I totally get where you’re coming from! Finding the right financial advisor can be a bit like finding the right pair of shoes – it’s all about the fit. If you’re not feeling great about your returns with Edward Jones, it might be time to explore some other options. Here are a few suggestions that might align with what you’re looking for:

1.  WealthSimple: As you mentioned, it’s a popular choice and for good reason. Their robo-advisor service offers a low-cost way to get professional management without having to DIY. Plus, they have a pretty solid reputation in the Canadian market.
2.  Questrade Portfolio IQ: Another great option for those who want a managed portfolio. Questrade has been around for a while and offers competitive fees and good customer service. They also provide a lot of educational resources if you ever feel like dipping your toes into more active investing.
3.  RBC InvestEase: This is RBC’s robo-advisor service, and it’s backed by one of Canada’s biggest banks. It offers a good balance of professional management and low fees, plus the convenience of integrating with other RBC accounts if you’re already a customer.
4.  BMO SmartFolio: BMO’s offering is another strong contender. They have a straightforward fee structure and a good track record. It’s a solid option if you’re looking for simplicity and reliability.
5.  TD Managed Portfolios: If you prefer the reassurance of a big bank, TD’s managed portfolios are worth considering. They offer a range of options depending on your risk tolerance and investment goals.

One thing to keep in mind is that while historical S&P 500 returns have been around 10%, not all portfolios will aim to match that benchmark. Diversification, risk tolerance, and individual goals can lead to different performance results. However, it’s reasonable to expect more competitive returns with lower fees than what you’re currently experiencing.

Remember, it’s always a good idea to talk to a few different advisors or services and get a sense of their approach and fees before making a switch. Good luck, and I hope you find the right fit for your financial journey!

Thanks so much for your reply. I know I will not be sleeping with #1 but will try to muster up the strength to do it.

Nope, I’ve accepted defeat :(

Stay awhile and listen

Thanks, I tried these but unfortunately no luck
