1. Preet reports that the planned ban on financial advisor commissions in the UK has partially spread to Australia.
2. Canadian Financial DIY takes issue with the MacLean’s article making the case against having kids. The article may be largely correct from an objective point of view, but people are definitely not wired to be objective when it comes to children.
3. Big Cajun Man plans to cut back on cell phone use and switch to a pay-per-use plan. Good luck!
Hi Michael, thanks for the link. I gotta admit my bias, I do like kids.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention have a fine weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link Michael!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I still act like a kid, so no kids for me yet. Fiona has two nephews who are a lot of fun though. Perhaps they will pay for my pension.
ReplyDeleteThe Gerlsbeck article was well written and researched but I didn't think raising minimum wages and expanding Employment Insurance were solutions to the middle class squeeze. It has more to do with lifestyle choices (avoiding too fancy a house or car, etc for one's income level). I think it would also help if taxes came down and there was less waste in public services.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for the link. Lots of great articles here.
