Welcoming my highest net worth EVER: $352,071.24!

Yesterday at the closing when I noticed that the TSX was on a very comfortable 21,818.47 points, I knew that my time had come: I was certainly on my so wanted $350,000 net worth! It's just really sad that this beautiful moment had to happen at a time when Russia continues its effort to dominate Ukraine by destroying its beautiful architecture and killing its citizens. 

I listen to a lot of YouTubers, and a few of them are based in Russia. They seem to be aware of what's going on in Ukraine, but I don't know if they realize that their military is killing Ukraine citizens, including children. With video titles like: "Why McDonald's Leaving Russia is A Tragedy", "Are companies leaving Russia because of sanctions".. its like, dah... don't you think buddy? Don't you think that the real tragedy is in Ukraine, where the Russian military is killing unarmed Ukrainians for no reason? Isn't it a good thing that the Western companies won't tolerate war crimes and leave Russia as a sanction? Personally, I decided to unsubscribe from some Russian YouTubers because I just cannot stand reading such vulgarities. 

However, some Russian YouTubers, like St.Petersburg - me, are touching me by their testimonies. Obviously, many Russians had lost their job and many others will probably lose their job in the close future. They have lives just like us, have bills and mortgages to pay. It's sad, but it's those same Russians who are tolerant of Putin. Its the price Russians have to pay for their subordination. But I don't want to be too hard, but I do find it hard to tolerate any Russian at this time. I have compassion for the normal Russian citizens, and many of them probably don't exactly know what's going on, that's something that adds to their tragedy on top of being dominated by their President. In the case of YouTuber St.Petersburg - me, she had purchased her own apartment just a couple of months ago. It's just very sad because, in that video, she said just how much she likes her new apartment, that it was her dream when she arrived in St. Petersburg more than 10 years ago to have her own place, and now, she wonders how she's going to pay her mortgage. We need to have human compassion for people going through such complicated situations, whether they are Russians or not. The ultimate worst would be to believe that it could never happen to us.

Among the way, I discovered many Ukrainian YouTubers and I decided to subscribe to their channels. A few names that you might enjoy: Olga Reznikova, Orest Zub, Vlad Kh (a friend of Orest), Johnny FD (an American that lived in Ukraine, but Ukrainian at heart I think), Pavlo from Ukraine. Please subscribe to those channels, watch their videos and support Ukrainian YouTube creators. It's a free way to support directly Ukraine and at the same time, you help great people to earn some valuable money on YouTube. Please especially subscribe to Vlad Kh, he needs a minimum of 1,000 subscribers before being able to monetize his videos. While you are there, you can also subscribe to my very own channel because I only have 12 subscribers at this time... :) PLEASE.

Look at one of my beautiful videos, one of my favorite thing to watch, the CN train (I really like trains by the way):

Since this past Friday, its been official, I had finally reached my first $350,000 net worth, and now I even exceed it, as my net worth closed this past Friday session on a good $352,071.24. I just hope that I will get a tax return this year, even a little one would be so welcome. I made the effort to invest close to $7,000 in my RRSP, I hope it is worth the effort.

My $350,000 net worth is almost here

Today was a good day for the TSX! My non-registered portfolio closed the session at $145,181.64, my US portfolio at $4,905.52, my RRSP portfolio - stock only - at $66,459.71 - and my TFSA portfolio at $130,719.39. I quickly updated my investment portfolio. From my calculation, I am only missing about $215 before my net worth finally hit the magical $350,000. It seems to me that I had been waiting for this to happen for a long time now.

$350,000 is a big number. I get to have a sense of that now because the house of our next-door neighbor is currently for sale at a whopping $180,000. There's also that house across the street, which used to be the house of one of my grandfather's brothers, which is for sale for $100,000. I could basically buy those two houses if I wanted to. The house that belongs to one of my grandfather's brothers is really cute, but all the windows would need or eventually would need to be changed, and also, the painting outside of the house is in need of a bit of love. The outside of that house hasn't been done in the longest time. For a house that needs love, $100,000 is not exactly cheap, even if the house is cute. 

If I am lucky, tomorrow may be the there where for the first time, I will be sitting on a $350,000 net worth. May that day arrive quickly so I can just move on to something more exciting... my first $400,000.

My Fortis Inc. (FTS) and WSP Global Inc. (WSP) among Christine Poole's Top Picks at BNN

It hasn't been a good day for the TSX, but at least it hasn't been disastrous. With those 21,187.84 points, my non-registered portfolio closed at $143,901.11, my US portfolio at $4,802.93, my RRSP portfolio - stocks only like always - at $65,505.20, and my TFSA portfolio at $127,965.20.

Today at BNN, Christine Poole's Top Picks included my beautiful Fortis Inc. (FTS) and WSP Global Inc. (WSP). I have been holding on to both FTS and WSP for several years now. Inside my non-registered portfolio, Fortis Inc. (FTS) is on a +104.38% gain and WSP Global Inc. (WSP) is even performing better, running the show with a +224.11%. Christine Poole knows her stuff, but it's not by listening quietly to BNN that I invested in the best stocks of my portfolio. There's a bit of a lack of originality there. Once you hold on to the best stocks one investor can possibly have, the next step is to explore a bit more, just to see if I had been missing on anything. It's not BNN that can push you over the edge, but Stockopedia definitively can! To explore stocks the way I do, please use my referral link to benefit a 2-week FREE trial.

Just to add quickly to my post of yesterday, the fact that Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN) feature among JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) inside Stockopedia's "Trading below Cash Screen" is a huge factor that certainly plays in favor of Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN). I am not saying no to GDG.UN, but I just prefer to keep my options open for now. 

And talking about JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN), I was listening again to what I believe is the very last interview that gave Jean-François Tarif at The Morning show on BNN. I feel that what he said during that interview still applies today. Tardif named a couple of stocks that - back at the time - didn't really speak to me. Those stocks are:

Freehold Royalties Ltd. (FRU), Topaz Energy Corp. (TPZ), PrairieSky Royalty Ltd. (PSK), Celestica Inc. Subordinate Voting Shares (CLS), and Parkland Corporation (PKI).

I am not a stranger to Parkland Corporation (PKI). I used to be invested in PKI. I sell for whatever reasons, I don't remember exactly why, but you'll probably find that reason searching PKI on my blog. Among that list, I only have interest in one stock: Topaz Energy Corp. (TPZ). 

Topaz Energy Corp. (TPZ) is interesting, but it's not being backed up by a huge history. I don't see anything prior to 2021. 

For now, I am just looking.

Funny fact, inside my non-registered portfolio, Intertape Polymer Group Inc. (ITP) grow by +0.53%. :)

A possible option for dividend thirsty investors: Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN)

Regarding my winter boots situation that I explained in the last post, it happen that my mom took the boots - the ones I wanted to melt down the plastic with a lighther so it could cover the holes lol - and but them in the garbage can. It really amused me. I guess it was the next best thing that could happen to those boots. I had walked all winter long with those boots, and it just happen that in reason of their low quality fabrics, they were at the end of really end of their utility. I walk around a lot, so shoes that are not good quality won't ever last long with me. When I used or wear something, its always to the core.

As for the TSX, I was under the impression that today was going to be a good day, but it happens that I was wrong. The TSX closed today session at 21,180.78 points, leaving my non-registered at $144,053.35, my US porfolio at $4,757.78 US, my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $65,550.51, and my TFSA portfolio at $127,869.14.

No matter what happens on the TSX, I am always in search of new stocks to invest in. In order to fill that need, I consult like usual Susan Brunner's blog. Nice, but when I want more, I consult my secret weapon: Stockopedia. I like to scroll a bit everywhere in Stockopedia platform, but my favorite thing of all is their screens. It help to keep my head clean (browsing on Stockopedia is really that fun and you should definitively give it a try for free with this unique offer using my referal link!!!), and I just love to search around for new stocks that I might even not even know that existed. And Stockopedia gave me all of those advantages. You can get a taste of what Stockopedia has to offer to Canadian investors by reading Ben Hobson's article. He published new articles every month, right here.

In Stockopedia, Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN) appears on a special screen, which is named "Trading below Cash Screen". In that screens, we find, among other, JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN). I already hold on to some JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) units in both my TFSA and RRSP portfolios. Managed by Jean-François Tardif, JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) is what I like to name a "money stabilizer". No matter how bad the weather gets over the stock market volatility, JFS.UN always manages to keep in its value, and always remain stable. A simple look at JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) will help you to understand:

While today - for a mix of different reasons - New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI) loses -9.295% and Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation (LIF) loses -17.73%, JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) remains in kind of a neutral state, just moving down a bit by -1.054%.

Since Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN) and JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) are both included in the Trading below Cash Screen, does it means that GDG.UN could be as good as JFS.UN for my investment portfolio? One point in favor of Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN): it pay a dividend distribution of 5.329%, while JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) pay f off. :)

However, JFS.UN overall chart is much much stronger than GDG.UN. Here's the overall chart for Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN):

Strangely, Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN) main holdings are in US tech stocks. I am not of a fan of tech stocks, and as for the US stock market, I don't hate it, but I just don't have any interest in it. At this time, I need investment that will push me over the edge. GDG.UN is not bad, but its not perfect, and its not as good as JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN). I could certainly enjoyed a little bit more exposure to the US stock market, despite my lack of interest, but the tech sector is just not my thing. Right now, I am stricly looking for very strong assets that will just light me up as easily as my old boots with a lighter when I come crossing their way. :) 

Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation (LIF) announced a cut in their dividend distribution, which surprised most investors, including myself. But hey, if a company decided to reduce their dividend distribution, it's because they have their reason. It's not fun to deal with dividend cut, but I respect the companies who have the gut to do so. My investment portfolio is strong enough to have little hits here and there. I had been through much more diffcult market situations in the past. This is not nothing, but in my view, its just temporary.

Right now, I am trying to find some quality to invest in. Global Dividend Growers Income Fund (GDG.UN) is not bad, but its not a good fit for me.

Following New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI) and Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation (LIF) management decision to cut in their dividend distribution, I finally had the courage to update my annual dividend income. It's obviously a bit lower now, but at now $10,821.65, my annual dividend income is still looking good.

Don't be discouraged by anything, the TSX is just another bitch.
