The Number games: Updating Net Worth, Navigating Crypto, and Tackling Debt

I was quite pleased to update my investment portfolio this weekend, only to find out that my net worth has now reached $371,540.77. It's an interesting number because, if the TSX cooperates in my favor, I could potentially reach $380k by the end of the year, which is now just 3 weeks away. Anything is possible in the stock market. I had reached my highest net worth ever back in April of this year, and the magic number was $373,150.19.

Lately, Bitcoins and Ethereum have gained in value, helping to boost the value of my TFSA portfolio. I still hold onto some ETFs in Bitcoins and Ethereum in my portfolio to this date. Several months ago, I used to buy and sell those ETFs to generate small gains. It was working well until it wasn't anymore, and I got stuck with them, unable to sell them at a profit. These ETFs include Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC), Purpose Bitcoin ETF CAD ETF non-currency hedged units (BTCC.B), and 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ). My goal now is to sell them without experiencing any losses. I didn't play that much with crypto, but if I recover the money, it will make close to 4k that I will have at my disposal to pay down my margin account debt. That's the plan.

When I started trading crypto ETFs, it was important for me not to play with too large a sum of money. However, a +3.5k is still quite a significant amount, and I will be happy once I am able to recover it.

My margin debt is now at $25,913.03. My goal was to get it down to 25k by the end of the year. I have spent quite some money lately, so I don't know if I would be able to pay it down more in the time left this year. But one thing is for sure, it's something that I want to pursue next year. I could sell some of my stocks to accelerate the process. Paying down a $25k debt is quite a process and will take the time it has to. I have been working many hours, doing a lot of overtime, but income taxes are taking their part, so the extra I can "take home" is unfortunately not that much. However, it is still worth it to work overtime, but it's better not to think too much about the taxes.

Surprise, my net worth is now at $368,453.87!

I will be leaving Montreal for New Brunswick in about two weeks from now. In the meantime, I am trying to do a bit of everything to enjoy the time I have left in Montreal. I will be coming back to Montreal following the holidays, but I don't exactly know when. Traveling is a bit difficult during the winter. Please follow me on Twitter if you are curious to find out what I am doing on a daily basis.

I had been spending a lot of money. Back in November, I had a dermatologist intervention that cost me around $1,400. My nose has healed well and is still healing. I post quite regularly over there. This past Friday, the TSX closed at a very good 20,452.87 points. I was quite excited because I knew it meant that my net worth was going to go up! What surprised me the most in my latest investment portfolio update is the fact that my non-registered portfolio value now exceeds $141k.

Just as expected, my net worth went up by several thousand dollars. On December 1, my net worth closed at $368,453.87. It's quite an impressive spot to be in because I am now super close to what had been my highest net worth ever, $373,150.19 back on April 21 of this year. My dividend income is also doing very well. Recently, many businesses like Enbridge Inc. (ENB) and several great Canadian banks like Royal Bank of Canada (RY), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD), and Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM) announced dividend increases. Currently, my dividend income is at an equivalent of $945 per month, coming from my non-registered and TFSA portfolio. I have to thank the new shares owned by my dividend DRIP coming from ENB and FTS. Once I reach $1,000 per month, it will be a major accomplishment. I am almost there!

I know it's a shame, but I still have contribution room left of over $12,000 when it comes to my TFSA. In my non-registered portfolio, Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is one of my major dividend payers. I had invested in BNS many years ago, over a decade and more. Back in the days, BNS was a Derek Foster stock. I have had my BNS stocks on a DRIP ever since. Unfortunately, BNS value has gone down lately. At this point, I could almost proceed with a contribution in kind from my non-registered to my TFSA using almost all of my BNS shares! I think I will proceed with the operation tomorrow. That way, I will significantly increase the dividends earned inside my TFSA, free of taxes. I could proceed with the rest of the transfer in 2024.

For 2024, the contribution limit for the TFSA is set at $7,000.
