Welcome Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U), 200 units of PHS.UN in my online future trading brokerage!
Hello all! I just place my first 9.99$ trade with TD Waterhouse! It was supposed to be yesterday, but I just wasn't able to get out of bed on time...
So welcome to the Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U)!
Anyway, we will talk about it later on this evening. Got to run for work.
I purchase 200 units of the Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U). I know... I had previously target Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN), but I was willing to add something I wasn't already holding and I find PHS.UN a nice way to diversify even more my portfolio...
So welcome to the Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U)!

Geting ready for my first 9.99$ trade with TD Waterhouse
Yep... it is tomorrow.. or should I say today, since it's already 1:14am... I just received a good paycheck, very close to the 1 000$ and early morning, I should be good to place my order to get 100 brand new units of Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN). After what, I will have available 647$ on my TD credit line to place another investment next month.
I just had received Bank of Scotia (BNS) dividend of 52.43$.
Yellow Pages Income Fund (YLO.UN) had turn into a corporation. The change appear in my broker account. I now hold my units under the name Yellow Media Inc., the new ticket being YLO.
I finish work late as I am working overtime to purchasing you know what. I hope to be able to place another trade next month too.

The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) / EnerCare Inc.: a killer company
Lately, a reader asks my opinion about The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN). I first bought some units of The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) several months ago after reading that Derek Foster himself was holding some units of CWI.UN. I found CWI.UN interesting because of its low trading price (less than 6$ per unit). This makes it possible to own hundred of units at a fair price in order to receive the benefits of a very interesting dividend: 0.648$ annual dividend per unit. Cannot say no to that right?
In the past couple of months, CWI.UN value had been quite volatile, driving me quite crazy. At a point, I taught: should I be selling my Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) units like Derek Foster? Even if I usually copy Derek Foster investment portfolio quite often without any shame lol, I am still able to make my own choices right. A hold a couple of diamonds in my portfolio and some of them come from my own pick. Among them, Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN) is probably the “stock pick” I am the most proud of. And I actually borrow money on a credit card balance transfer to invest in JE.UN. Yeah, I know, crazy move, but it wasn’t stupid. Just Energy Income Fund is currently exploding.
Anyway, just to come back to my The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN), if you want my point of view, Derek Foster should stick to his own strategy: stick and hold. I am a stick and hold type of investor myself and I got good result just by following the basic of investment. But what if the basic of investment rules where just more than the basic? At a point, I begin to think that the basics are just more than the basic, they are the leading rules of investment.
The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN): dividend yield is of 11.077% - quite impressive if you want my opinion.
The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) total revenues kept increasing for the past 3 years. Check it out:
2007: 168,128$
2008: 180,523$
2009: 188,246$
(in term of millions of $ of course…)
No way, I am not going to sell this baby lol… And 2010 should be the same. We should be good revenues for The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) again in 2010.
The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) does business in, of course, water heater, but that’s not all. In October 2010, The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) had acquired a small but profitable business name Enbridge Electric Connections Inc. specializes in electricity. Awesome isn’t?
Real soon, The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) will convert into a dividend-paying corporation. Since a name change is required, the company new name under the conversion will be EnerCare Inc. Ok for EnerCare Inc. But the best news is, once the conversion approved, EnerCare plan to maintain the current distribution level. Which mean that the dividend will remain at 0.648$! Very good!
So when it comes to The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) I only have good words. CWI.UN recently reached 6.08$ per unit, it’s highest ever.
So now, I am going to show you how to invest like a New Brunswicker and I am going to tell you to BUY and HOLD The Consumers’ Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) :0). Have a good night and let’s pray for Barack Obama.

I am now at 113 039.97$
That’s feeling great for sure! I am finishing the month of October at one of my highest level ever! I am now at 113 039.97$ in assets. The month of October 2010 had been an awesome month, but the month of November will be even better.
Watch out for November 4, 2010!
Why? On November 4, 2010, I will be placing my first trade at 9.99$ with my online broker TD Waterhouse! My next investment? I plan to invest in 100 units of Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN).
In order to do so, I work a max of hours lately at work. Working 7 days a week just to purchase stocks could seem at first a silly idea, but in my case, working 7 days a week is the only way I have to increase my salary. And it definitively worth it. My investment portfolio is a real bomb and so am I ;)

I am now at 112 498.17$
I finish work early tonight because I really wanted to update my portfolio. It hasn’t been updated since my last 2 investments in Bell Aliant Regional Communications Income Fund (BA.UN) and Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN). Both investments had increase in value. For one of the first time ever, Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN) had close the day a more than 20$ per unit!
Overall, I have very great result and it’s getting way too much exciting, especially now, knowing that starting November 4, 2010, I will be able to purchase stocks online at only 9.99$ per trade with TD Waterhouse! The only requirement is to have a minimum of 50 000$ within the broker account. And of course, on November 4, 2010, I will be celebrating the new 9.99$ price commission by placing an online trade! I plan to invest in 100 units of Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN). I am currently doing a max of hours at work. 100 new units of ENF.UN would be great, but 200, even better!
My dividend income is slowly adding up. I am now at the equivalent of 410$ per month in dividend income. I am just very thankful not to have any kind of heavy bills such as cable, cell phone etc. to pay. That allow me to concentrate my efforts on saving and all extra money made can go on paying debt and/or invest. That 112 498.17$ of mine is very awesome. But I want MORE. :0)

Working at paying off some debt
What a week… I did around 47 hours at my week day job and I also work my regular shift at my weekend job. In the middle of the week I got a cold and I wasn’t feeling well at all. The problem being that the weather is now much colder and I am sill walking to go to work. That’s how it happens. I took Benylin pills and that was it, but I had to take 2 pills every 6 hours or I was done… I got some really strong and painful flu symptoms.
I am not too happy about having to spend a 70$ per month on a metro pass on my already tight budget. Well, my budget is not that tight but lately, I had spent quite some money on my credit card. I have until October 9th to pay a 513$ balance… yep. Where the money go? Mostly on food, coffees, coffees and even more coffees lol… Now that I am starting a new circle on the credit card, I will be more careful with my expenses. I will be able to pay off that balance of my regular expenses without any problem. It’s just that I would like to slide from 513$ to my old 250$-300$ monthly expenses. Those expenses include everyday expenses and also groceries. Now that the summer is over, that my rent had been increased of 10$, the lovely frugal living is back!
And talking about frugal living, the red in my hair is slowly getting off. A have a major root showing off but I prefer it that way. I no longer want to dye my hairs. But I desperately need a hair cut that’s for sure…
I am still waiting for my iPod Touch and I hope to get it this week maybe.
I am getting mentally ready to do 50 hours and up at work… I got my 513$ credit card balance to pay on top of everything else but sincerely, everything is going well. I was about to update my investment portfolio but I didn’t update the RSP part because yesterday I went to bed early as I had the flu. But here’s the update for the non registered part:
Non registered Investments:
Stocks and Units investment portfolio
Sprott Inc. (SII): 2 999.22$
Timminco (TIM): 60$
Blue Note Mining (BNT): 52$
Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS): 5 836.85$
Hanwei Energy Services (HE): 120$
Methanex Corporation (MX): 2 858.25$
Fortis (FTS): 3 497.83$
Pembina Pipeline Corporation (PPL):
9 359.84$
Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN): 11 620.14$
Yellow Pages Income Fund (YLO.UN):
2 850.45$
Bell Aliant Regional Communications Income Fund
(BA.UN): 5 540$
Pengrowth Energy Trust (PGF.UN): 2 481.36$
Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN): 5 135.70$
Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A): 3 167.76$
Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN):
3 956$
Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH):
2 888.64$
EnCana Corporation (ECA): 5 680.26$
Cash: 24.49$
TOTAL: 68 129.29$
So I guess that overall, I am around 110k or something like it. My debt are around 45 000$. I won’t update my debt part tonight either as for the rest. I am just very happy that I had been able to clean my place and do a bit of laundry before tonight so don’t ask too much of me…
Talking about debt, I completed my credit card balance transfer and officially got the 4.9% low interest rate on my TD Visa until April 2011. I got this completed this Friday. I only have something like 3 300$ to pay off on my TD credit line. I will be working at paying it off for the upcoming weeks. Nothing more for now. No investment plan to announce either. Life is getting boring these days as I work all the time. I want my iPod.

It's pay day
I received a big paycheck of more than 1 200$! The money will go as payment on my TD credit line. After what I will only have left to pay 3 400$ on it. Not bad at all. (Pretty huge knowing its after taxes). Those were for the unpaid commissions I didn’t receive for the last six months. Unbelievable. But the worst is that my colleagues who had quite their jobs in the meantime will never touch the money of their commissions. This is how things work in Quebec province. Employers have all the rights of the world, while employees have no rights and no voices. Yes, I can fairly scream it loud: Quebec is the most corruptive province in Canada. And sooner they will be kick out of Canada, the better it will be for Canadians like myself.
I wasn’t shock when I read that no criminal charges had been put against Carole Morinville even if her assets had been frozen since August and even after she had declared bankruptcy. The Autorité des marches financiers is just so incompetent! What the hell is everyone doing? Carole Morinville had been suspected of holding a Ponzi scheme. Which mean that some blind Quebec investors had decided to give her their money so she could invest it for them. But the money is now no where – it’s appearing to be gone. What a mistake those investors had made! Lessons haven’t been learned by Quebeckers since the Bertram Earl Jones scandal. The best way to invest is by yourself, by opening a broker account. Don’t trust anyone. Especially Quebeckers. Those are just arrogant people that think to have it all, they want to separate, be a country of their own. See where their arrogances had driven them. To nothing. Taxes are the highest in North America, more than 2 million of Quebeckers do not have a family doctor, there is no good access to health care and no good educational system, the richest put their children to private schools, etc… And see their prime Minister, Jean Charest? Jean Charest is like the rest of Quebec: a good leader of Quebec cheaters and liars – from the exact same tramp of Brian Mulroney.
Also, another way to avoid financial fraud is to have your assets diversify in several Canadian banks. And try to completely avoid BMO Bank of Montreal. The people working there are incompetent. Trust me. I had been there. And also, BMO Bank of Montreal is not a national bank, it’s a provincial bank. So if I where you, I would avoid that kind of junk.
But anyway, generally speaking, those Quebeckers are so incompetents. You have to be here and live it for yourself to believe what kind of crackheads those Quebeckers are.
I am now to more than 90 000$ in my broker account, if you are interested of knowing about it. lol… And what happen at 100k? Hello trades at 9.99$ with TD Waterhouse!
