AFTER PARKING MOST OF MY NEST EGG IN VERY CONSERVATIVE INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS THERE WASN'T MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT. TPCI IS BACK WITH SOME THOUGHTS AND IDEAS, OTHER THAN INVESTMENT IDEAS, TO SHARE WITH CANADIAN BOOMERS, RETIREES AND SNOWBIRDS.


Nothing on this site should ever be considered to be advice, research or a suggestion or invitation to buy or sell any securities or any other product or service. Every investor should do their own research and consult their own finance guy. See full DISCLAIMER.


BEST OF TPCI

These aren't necessarily my picks but Professor Google, who owns blogger.com, says they're the most visited.
  1. Old Guys Getting Screwed - and it's not about Viagra!  Seems like you mention Viagra in a post and the weirdos hunt you down.  Maybe this is why I keep getting offers from the online pharmacies??
  2. Coal Miners, Love 'em and Leave 'em
  3. Hey Buddy, I'll trade you a Crescent Point for a Suncor
  4. Investing 101  This was post number one.  Sat down that day back in May of 2009 and decided to tell my story.
  5. Thank You Mr Brieger!!!  The story of my first and only double.  I guess blog readers enjoy the odd success story.


MY FAVS
I like some of these because I enjoyed writing them, others because I thought the message was worthwhile. Most importantly, I received the most feedback from readers about these posts.
  1. Who Should(n't) Be In Funds?  I heard from many readers about this one. The idea that there existed for many years a strategy calling for a planned exit from funds as one approaches retirement shocked many readers. Some friends advise that they're still awaiting the call from finance guy.
