When you’re living pay-cheque to pay-cheque, it can be hard to have anything left to save.And if you have debt as well, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with a feeling of never being able to get on top of things financially.It’s easy for financial “gurus” to tell you to save 5% each month no matter …
0 shares Share0 Tweet0 Share0 Parents around the world are facing a massive dilemma as Fall edges closer……do you send your child (or children) to school or continue to keep them home (assuming you have an online learning option available)?Each household and family has different considerations so there’s no clear cut answer to this one.Whichever …
I remember my teenage years…they were full of anxiety, discovery and a whole of other mental issues.Fast forward decades later, when I suffered through some emotional trauma and started seeing a counselor, I did find it helpful speaking to someone.Except, I eventually had to stop because the counseling fees/bills were adding up and I couldn’t …
One of my missions for the Brain Buddha is to educate and expose many lies in what is a lot of predatory behaviours.With a global pandemic and government stimulus cheques in people’s hands, it’s created a new batch of amateur retail investors.Especially with no-fee trading apps like Robinhood (I’m not linking to them because I …

I remember the amount of rage I felt experiencing my emotional trauma in 2015. It was a “Hulk-like” rage. Someone had purposelly and knowing full-well what his actions would do (destroy people’s lives) still proceeded to act that way. Injustice, hurt and trauma was felt for years while I tried to heal myself. But somehow, with all the meditation …
First, full disclosure, I am NOT a professional financial analyst (although I have an Economics degree) but this is not my “profession”.
