Weekend Reading – Tips from a millionaire

Weekend Reading – Tips from a millionaire

Welcome to a new edition of Weekend Reading where I share some of my favourite articles from the week that was.

Check out these great articles when you have some time…enjoy your weekend and I’ll be back next week with a dividend income update and more.

MDJ had a guest post from Pete, how Pete became a millionaire.

Preet Banerjee scared the heck outta us when he wrote any of these answers aren’t good enough when it comes to saving for retirement: ‘10%’, ‘as much as you can’ and ‘more’.  Preet’s answer to the retirement number is ‘it depends’ based on a sound financial plan that considers a number of well-documented variables.

Canadian Couch Potato is launching a new Couch Potato mutual fund.   “It will carry a management fee 1.40%, as well as a 1% trailing commission paid to the advisor. Investors will have their choice of a 5% front-end load, a deferred sales charge starting at 7%, or a combination of both.”  Dan loves April 1st as well.

Have a great weekend!

Mark

  1. Thanks for sharing my article Mark, much appreciated. Hope all is well with you. We’re expecting our second baby soon so I’m super busy right now.

    I hope sometime in the next year I’ll be able to get back to reading and commenting on more blogs. I’ve been spending what little time I have on my own and haven’t been very active in the community. Sorry I haven’t been really reading or sharing your stuff!
