My man 🤝
You would have outperformed the market by ~26% if you had invested in @Wealthsimple last year!
Congratulations on the raise. Incredible growth year over year! Amazing what happens when you actually care about your clients 😉
Wealthsimple Q3 update: we grew client assets to $169B (+68% YoY), and this week we announced a $425M raise at a $13.8B valuation.
In the past 12 months we launched credit cards, business accounts, and kids accounts. Our mission hasn’t changed. It’s just gotten bigger.
So thankful ❤️ for our clients. Millions of Canadians have trusted us with their money, and we’ll never take that for granted. You’re helping us build a movement to define the future of financial services in Canada.
And so proud of the incredible work by our team at @Wealthsimple. We’re just getting started. 🇨🇦
Your week could always be worse!
Keep gutting it out @Fun_Paleo...
Interesting - with today’s CPI print, it’s all but guaranteed the new TFSA limit for 2027 will be $7500.
The average monthly CPI for all items for October 2025 to September 2026 was 167.525
The indexed TFSA dollar amount for 2027 is $7,372, which is rounded to the nearest $500 to arrive at a $7,500 TFSA dollar limit for 2027. The lifetime limit as of January 1, 2027, for someone who was 18 in 2009, will be $116,500 (assuming no contributions or withdrawals to date).
Enjoy the extra $500!!
And RBC just charged me $9 in banking fees for having an account this month.
Remind me why brick and mortar banks still exist???
More ways to trade futures on @Wealthsimple.
Nanos, physicals, and single-stock futures now live.
Happy Canadian thanksgiving, all!
I’m thankful for the best investment account in the world - the TFSA.
It’s been a nice little runner for $CVVY.TO as of late.
The TFSA is a wealth generation machine. I’m begging you to use it if you’re Canadian.
When I heard that $350B is sitting in cash in TFSAs I was astounded. Imagine if that was invested in Canada. Imagine the increase in wealth for those clients. Imagine the businesses that could be built. Imagine the jobs that could be created. It's one of the greatest opportunities we should take advantage of. newsroom.wealthsimple.com/th…
So we have:
- The highest global tariffs in years
- Crude touching $90/bbl
- The highest 30y yield in 25 years
- A plague resurfacing
and people are still wondering why the stock market is down today?!
Do you realize what you’ve done @Wealthsimple??
My wife is going to abuse this.
Seeing this all over my feed.
So easy to say you’d leave it in and “do nothing”
Very different scenario when the 30 year jumps to 8% and you’re down almost 600k in mark-to-market.
30 years is a LONG time
With yesterday’s $VTI dividend payment of ~$0.96/sh, Mr or Mrs CalmDodo17 received a dividend payment of ~$50k USD.
Not a bad quarter!
