On Christmas Eve

Its Christmas and I just arrived from work. Outside, it’s raining, and water got inside my boots and I am really thinking on purchasing a new pair on Boxing Day. My laptop got infected by several viruses and I have been dealing with the problem for several days now. On Boxing Day, Staples have a special on Norton 360 and, before even getting new pair of boots; I want to purchase a good anti-virus. I also have an eye on a mini-laptop, which is at 299$. At the end, it’s all make a big deal of money. I still have something to pay on my credit line since I purchase not those long ago Fortis stocks. I am really into that stocks thing now and nothing make me happier than seeing my portfolio grow, even if it’s lost half its value. But I am still on in and I believe I will continue like that for a while, until I get tired of loosing money like crazy.

The major problem is that I begin to purchase stocks just a couple of months ago. And since we are in the middle of what so ever recession, I just follow the flow, just like other, I am loosing money.

Another problem is that I am getting addictive and it’s a good thing I can move funds from my credit line to my brokerage account. I know it wasn’t made to help me out – but just to make money from small investor like me, but I really enjoy it and so far, the way I have handle it is that as soon as all the amount due on the credit line being paid off, I take another loan to purchase other stocks and so on. And if I keep investing like this, I might no be able to see positive result anytime soon, because markets are so volatile. It’s exhausting me. And I wanted my 50 000$ so hard, it’s so silly and funny at the same time. Sometimes, I take a look at my blog and I laugh at myself because it’s just make no sense and its hilarious, the way its stand out, My first 50 000$, in a so basic English. So innocence and naive, I just love it. And I prefer to blog in English just for the fun of it.

I might have talk about it earlier, but my next projects are, opening a tax-free account at RBC and move in some of my mutual funds I already have with them. I just hope such move is possible. I really enjoy the fact that yearly, an average of 10 000$ per year (5 000$ into the tax free account and the other half in RRSP) can grow away from taxes.

Second project is being to put money in my RRSP because I know for sure that if not I will probably have to pay taxes and I won’t let that happen. I just worried where I am going to take the money from. Like right now I only have enough to cover the expenses of January. Next paycheck in January will all go on the credit line and so on. And I just keep going like that over and over again. But is there anything else I love most than money?

Tomorrow, I am off and I am quite happy. I have been spending a lot of time working on my computer. Next step for me will be to test it into a cafe. My problem being I cannot connect to Wireless which status is Excellent. I can only connect when status is Low or Very low. I have been reading on the topic and I find the word of virus very interesting. But at the same time, I am kind of amused of myself since I have been going on Wireless for so long without the appropriate protection. It’s just like having sex with a complete stranger without any protection…

Anyway, let say I can pretty much handle any kind of situation. And reaching the goal of a laptop without virus had amused me as much as working at reaching my first 50 000$.

And I had been thinking even deeper, about my situation, having to work at 3 jobs just for the money. But I am at the point that I would like to find better paying jobs and it might be possible. It won’t be that of a challenge to find a job paying at least 15$ per hour. But at the same time, I don’t know if I should place my move knowing I am quite ok the way things are at this time. I have been thinking about this over and over again and I finally decide to remain the way I am right now for at least another year or until I have enough of saving money and trying too hard.

But life had been unfair with me but things are the way they are and I am spending the Christmas Eve along in front of my computer.
