Welcome in my non-registered portfolio Hydro One Limited (H)!

Surprise... This past week, I bough some shares of Hydro One Limited (H) for my non-registered portfolio. This wasn't really plan. The year 2015 is coming to the end and I want it to end in a great way. I didn't invest much in 2015. Overall, 2015 had been a shitty year for the Canadian stock market. 

Following April 2015, everything went wrong. But on April 2015, I was on top of my game, I had $205 871 invested, with a new worth of $139 599. I was on my way for a net worth of $150 000 when the stock market began to show serious signs of extreme volatility. My dream of getting on a $150 000 net worth fly away.

Anyway, I got very excited about Hydro One Limited (H). H had been a market for less than a week, but its exciting because its going to pay between 4 to 4.4 dividend yield distribution. I like what I read so far about Hydro One Limited (H). For a moment, I remember what it was to feel excited about something. 

Yes, Hydro One Limited (H) turn me on.

RRSP investments might be a good thing after all

I call my mother this evening and she had bad news. Its regarding her teeth. My mother family side suffer from a condition, genetic I guess, that slowly attack the health of their teeth as soon they get in their late 50s, 60s. With age, the root of their teeth seriously rotted. Not because they don't brush their teeth, but its a condition that attack their teeth from their inside. My mother had one of her back teeth remove last year. This year, she had a tooth fix, but no matter what, the tooth remain sensible and she feel something when, for instance, she drink her coffee.

And guess what, the poor girl that I am have the same teeth as my mother family side. I can say that because our teeth look alike. We almost have straight teeth, but not exactly because of one left front tooth is higher than the other ones... Its one of my mother family side trademark. So I guess I will be suffering from the same condition when I will hit my fifties but keep reading until I reach that venerable age. My mother doesn't have health insurance, so this is going to cost her a bunch of money.

That was the bad news. Imagine having extra sensible teeth. It must be a daily pain. It seem to me that my RRSP money is going to serve at something after all one day... I prefer teeth problem rather than having earring problems like Gordon Pape.

Otherwise, its seem to be the only default to my beautiful genetic.

Welcome in my TFSA JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN)!

Finally, I now hold some JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) units inside my TFSA. It happen early this morning. I am very busy at work these days, so I didn't have time to do the fantastic investment move earlier.

JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) won't bring in any dividend - but it could pay a special dividend like it did in the past. However, I dream of holding JFS.UN inside my TFSA for a very long time now because I wanted to get my hands on some capital gain - free of tax.

My thing is to sell a few units of JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) whenever my investment gain $510 in value. This could happen every 2 years or so if lucky, on a 2k investment.

Following this new investment inside my TFSA, I still have left a contribution room of $18 225. Its a shame, but because of my margin account situation inside my non-registered portfolio, its sometime hard to invest inside a register account.

Lou Schizas review MY stock darling: New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI)

In his latest column in the Globe and Mail, Lou Schizas reviewed a stock that I hold inside my non-registered portfolio: New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI). Personally, I had been holding on the NFI since January 2011. The beauty of writing a financial blog is that it help to keep track of absolutely everything. Really everything.

It haven't always been easy to hold on to NFI, but I hold and collect dividend, as well as capital gain. For those of you like me who had been holding to New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI), NFI is a good investment. The holding absolutely worth it. However, for those who are not invested in NFI and are thinking about jumping it now, I don't know if its a good time. In the sense that NFI currently trade at its highest and bus business is like jet and airplane business - talk about it to Bombardier Inc. - it can be volatile.

Unfortunately these days, the stock market is a volatile place. So its very hard to say invest in this or that. OR don't invest in this...

Gold and silver are definitely a big NO NO - at least from me.

Sign Working Canadians petition to keep the TFSA contribution limit to $10 000

Liberals of Justin Trudeau had won the majority and unfortunately for investors, the Liberal party is looking forward to decrease TFSA annual contribution to $5 500, which is very sad. A $10 000 annual contribution is very perfect. It leave plenty of room for saving. Saving grow tax free and best thing of all, if a back luck happen, you lose your job or you just need money to cover whatever purpose, you can withdraw any amount wanted without facing any penalties.

Is not the case with RRSP and its the main reason why I stop adding money to my RRSP. I need money now. When I will be old and grey, I don't care. I will eat in the garbage if I don't have any money left! No one should ever care about senior days because when youth is all fade away and that you need to face lift just to look presentable, well, I guess that it just not a life. It is certainly not the type of older days I want. Money need to be enjoy and invest now.

Sorry for all the seniors who might be reading. But no worries, plastic surgery DO exist.

On a more serious note.

In order to keep all the privileges associated with the TFSA, especially its generous $10 000 annual contribution, we all need to act and act now mean to do like I did and sign the Working Canadians petition

Act now before its too late.

Bombardier Inc. (BBD.B): another Quebec flop

Long time ago, I used to hold some Bombardier Inc. (BBD.B) stocks inside my non-registered portfolio. I used to be quite excited about the CSeries and all of that Bombardier stuff. But I didn't like Bombardier lack of leadership. I mean, when you make announcements, and later on, you cannot even respect your initial engagements... Even if such lack of engagement is not surprising coming from a Quebec business, I was hoping for something better coming from one of my investment choice. Because after all, I am an investor princess and I make great decisions.

I am adventurous. I like to invest my hard earn money, its in my nature, I cannot help it. Anyway, later on, I sell at profit. And I never came back to Bombardier Inc. (BBD.B) ever again.

And now, Quebec government came up with a very bad idea: to help Bombardier Inc. using Quebec taxes. Unfortunately, I live in Quebec, its not by choice. Its not because I like it here. Its strictly and only for monetary reasons and nothing else. However, Quebec want to use my tax money to help a company that only had showed bad leadership moves one after the other and cannot handle it.

When government decided to help x or x company, its always for a good reason. Its mean deep trouble. And you should always stay away from businesses who cannot survive by their own selves. Stay away from trouble.

Couting every dividend pennies: update on my annual dividend earnings

Its not easy to be an investor these days. This past Friday, my non-registered portfolio was about to hit on the 130k mark. At $129 297, I was super close! But what was hot and true yesterday is today no more... Today, my non-registered portfolio closed at $125 247.25. What is that??!!! I feel like screaming, just like Adele: HELLO... Yo which I could add: where had gone my money....


I used to be much more glamorous. I used to be a super investment girl. Remember these old days, not so old? Back on date of April of this year, my non-registered portfolio was was at $137 000 - its highest value ever recorded. I was about to hit on $140 000 when everything collapse. What a bad surprise. I can't wait to see a TSX going back to the 15 000 points. Is it too much to ask?

During volatile times, my portfolio goes up and down. And in those hard time, I am not the best investor. When the market is down, I don't like it. I don't feel it as a great time to invest. I am just in the mood to invest. But without investing, my life get very boring and ordinary. Believe it or not, I have $2 000 available to invest and guess what, its not yet invested!!

I hold JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) in both RRSP and non-registered account. I am thinking of adding some more of those gold units one more time in my portfolio, this time in my TFSA. For any investment portfolio, JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) is bullet proof against the stock market volatility. The fact that the stock market goes up and down like crazy barely have any effects on the JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN). The capital gain on JFS.UN had been super great. Personally, what I like to do with the JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) is to watch up it gain $510 in capital gain and when it does, girl do her thing, she sell and enjoy the free cash.

I always knew I was going to make my bucks on the back of Jean-François Tardif. HELLO SUPER CASH. In the immediate, my investment in JFS.UN won't bring anything in term of dividend, but I do remember one time when the fund had proceed with a special dividend distribution. When everything collapse around you, JFS.UN just keep going.

Recently, a bad surprise was the lost of Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN) inside my TFSA. Following what, I was curious to see at how much I am at in term of dividend earnings. After calculations, my annual dividend income is of $6 089.34, the equivalent of $507.50 per month. I wasn't earning much from Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN), but still, dividend money being so hard to earn, every penny counts. I was earning $23.50 per year from my old SFI.UN.

I would be very happy to reach a dividend annual income of $12 000. And that make me regret all of the money I had invested in my RRSP. If I could go back in times, I wouldn't invested anything inside my RRSP.

Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN) is terminated. Done. Over

During my vacations in October, something happen to Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN). SFI.UN is no longer active on the TSX. They are such a bunch of losers at Sprott Asset Management LP that they decided to terminate the Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN). I had been holding SFI.UN in my non-registered portfolio 2011. Do no ever invest in any of Sprott Asset Management LP investment products because if you do, you'll only lose money. I also lost a great deal of money by investing in Sprott Canadian Equity Fund.

Make sexy proud and DO NOT INVEST in any of Sprott Asset Management LP products. They are only "products" and don't conduct to any richness at all. Please learn from my mistakes and be f aware.

Since Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN) no longer trade, the losers at Sprott Asset Management decided to sell of shares and provide cash tot heir investors. The Sprott Strategic Fixed Income Fund (SFI.UN) is now behind me. And the cash I received from SFI.UN left me with more than $600 cash inside my TFSA. I currently have a $1 400 available on cash, so a 2k+ will go for investment.

The stock market is very volatile right now. Like we are like so f! Options are limited. Everyone agree with this point: 2-15 is the year to maximize your TFSA contribution because after that, starting 2016, the TFSA annual contribution would drop from $10 000 to $5 500. I currently have $19 625 left available to invest inside my TFSA. Soon, $1 400 will get transfer my TFSA. Following what, I will have $18 225 left... Its still a lot of money, where am I going to take the money from? Well, this bitch is full of resources, staring with a 5k at 3.5%. Great, but I will still have $13 225 left... 

But hey, read this article, and tell me after if you are still interest in the TFSA.

SOooooo confusing! Like always. LOL.

On another note, my non-registered portfolio is getting better. at $128 306.30. I am looking forward to hit on the $130 000.

Bye bye Stephen Harper! And hello... Justin Trudeau?!?!!

I went to vote this evening and I discovered something - I am no longer in Laurier-Sainte-Marie, so I didn't have the opportunity to vote for Hélène Laverdière. However, I vote for Tom Muclair. And he win in Outremont, with the help of my vote.

Middle class across the country massively vote for Justin Trudeau. anything would be better than Stephen Harper, but I don't like Justin Trudeau. Now that Trudeau had been elected, everyone will be waiting for their paycheck. He's not disciplines and strong enough. When he talked, he's always all over the place and he don't really know what he's doing. His counselors are putting words into his mouths. He learned the words, but what will happen now that my worst fear had become Prime Minister of Canada? We didn't need a Quebecker as Prime Minister of this country, its sooo UGLY. 

I never been a fan of Justin Trudeau. The guy is a dumb gummy.

Like expected, the sweet Hélène Laverdière kick off Gilles Duceppe out to the woods! I like that bitch. Her only fault is to be what she never asked to be - a Quebecker.

LOL.
