Surprise! I am now on my highest net worth value EVER: $287,914.75!

The 300k net worth is now just $12,085.25 away. Just for your information, this is what perfection looks like

The TSX closed today on an amazing 18,844.57 points, which have a great effect on all of my stocks, including my investments in Bitcoins ETF. Luckily enough, today is payday and I will be able to put $300 in savings and exactly $741.74 to pay down my margin. I don't exactly have any investment plan, with the exception maybe of Empire Company Limited Non-Voting Class A Shares (EMP.A). I listened to BNN lately and they spoke about this stock. But I feel the overall chart a bit rocky. I am not in a rush to invest in this one. While the TSX almost in the 19,000 points, this is just not the time to buy, and I am not just really into anything at this time.

My investments in Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC) and Purpose Bitcoin ETF CAD ETF non-currency hedged units (BTCC.B) are growing well.

For now, I am just enjoying the moment.

Welcoming my highest net worth value EVER: $283,675.99

I had just updated my investment portfolio, and I just found out that my net worth is now at $283,675.99, which is my highest value ever. Its quite fun to know that I am now only missing $16,324.01 to hit on the 300k net worth value. If the TSX continues to well perform, I may finally hit on the 300k quite soon enough.

Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC) closed today session with a +7.70% gain inside my TFSA portfolio. Soon enough, Bitcoin value will be hitting on the 70k CAN value.

Just boring stuff, just me building up my savings - hard to believe

Here in Montreal, we kind of got a feeling of spring because the sun was out, but it still cold. However, it was nice to have a sunny Sunday. It makes it easier to go outside for a walk. I am missing the gym more and more. It can be difficult for me to do my exercises inside my apartment. I can exercise in my apartment, but what I find difficult is doing absolutely everything in the small space of my apartment. Nice weather makes it easier to go through this pandemic.

The TSX closed this past Friday session in the 18,380 points, which is not too bad. Personally, whenever we closed a day in the 18,000 points, I am happy because I know my margin remains in the safe zone. This past week had been quite busy for me, so I just had a quick look at my stocks and the TSX. I am quite amazed, my non-registered portfolio closed this past Friday session on a super great $118,796.67, my US portfolio at $3,922.50 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $111,535.65 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $54,333.30. My margin debt is at $50,294.93. I estimate my net worth to be in the $276k.

This week, I got kind of hit by a feeling of emergency to do my tax declaration. I felt I was running late for that task. So at least I got that done. I just absolutely hate the whole process of doing my income tax, although I don't do it myself, getting my paper ready, covering up all of my account numbers, name of brokers, and others, including my SIN. I hope that you are doing all the name. Your accountant doesn't need to know the name of your broker or any of your account numbers or either way the name of the stocks you hold.

I might be in the 60k income range. I contribute an extra 1k to my RRSP, so I hope I won't have too much to pay back in taxes. I am not an RRSP fan. We shouldn't have to pay any penalties if we have to use that money before retiring. But now that I quite a good amount in my TFSA and my non-registered, it doesn't upset me that much to put a bit of money in my RRSP, especially since it can contribute to lower the taxes I have to pay.

This week, my only goal is to pay down a 1k on my margin debt and the rest will go into my savings. I had started to put a bit of money in several different savings account, with a different bank. Those are accounts that I wasn't using anymore, but I felt it was a good time to use them as a savings account. I like the idea to have a bit of money here and there with different banks. And that being just in case something happens, because of my margin debt, that being my number one reason. A second reason is that I like the idea to have money someplace else in case a problem occurs, fraud, or something happens that could eventually block my account in some way. I think that when you have a margin account like me or a big debt somewhere, it's quite important to have some savings standing in a different institution. If bad luck happens at the institution where you hold your debt in, that you have a margin call or let say you cannot pay your debt anymore, your account could easily get frozen, and you may not be able to access your savings if your cash is all concentrate in the same place. For the moment, I am not well advanced in the process, but at least I am starting to build something up.

I should be able to contribute to my savings this week and I also want to pay down a bit on my margin, so it can be standing at 49k instead of the current 50k. My recent investments in Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC) and Purpose Bitcoin ETF CAD ETF non-currency hedged units (BTCC.B) are down, but not by that much. At present, Bitcoins seem to be in a state of recovery. There might be a lot of ups and downs among the way, but eventually, Bitcoins are going to hit on the 100k and once it does, and probably only when it does, I will sell my QBTC and BTCC.B shares.

Thomson Reuters Corporation (TRI) announced an increase of it's dividend distribution - thank you TRI!

Got to take the good news whenever they show up! Dividend free cash? I like that!

Nothing is better then a stock market downturn to cry out shit off and put things together in a tied hole, to put everything in perspective. When the stock market pull back, I usually don't blog much. If the stock market say F U, and will have the exact same attitude and I prefer to stay away from my broker account and from my blog when things get too difficult. I hide in my hole. At a point, a stock correction is much needed to remember our humble human condition as an investor. Because at a point, I began to felt quite invincible.

My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $115,515.07, my TFSA portfolio at $112,657.95, and my RRSP portfolio at $54,736.84. I estimate my net worth to be in the $276,309, which is not bad at all. A stock that hold in both my TFSA portfolio and non-registered portfolio, WSP Global Inc. (WSP) made great gains today, closing at +8.15%. A stock that I hold in my RRRSP portfolio, CAE Inc. (CAE), decided to close today session on a wonderful +12.77%. Go go go!
