To be a successful business owner and investor, you have to be emotionally neutral to winning and losing. Winning and losing are just part of the game. Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing.

​@JDiegoCC-zf3cdexactly that's why I always seek Mr J Clark's guidance in all I do 😊

[@semendx]

I recently sold half my tech stock holdings due to all-time highs, leaving me with $400k. Should I invest in ETFs now or wait for a market correction considering potential inflation?

[@semendx]

Sounds interesting. I was planning to invest some few £ in some coins, stack them up and leave them for a few years, but seeing this changed my mindset. Thank you very much

[@korkyket]

Any specific guide. I'm from Georgia how do I go about this? I think I'm interested how can I get in touch with Mr J Clark

[@user-kj2iv6xr7s]

he's mostly on Telegrams, using the user-name

[@richardkeller4892]

Purolator is owned by Canada Post. Executives make more money during strike. Force Canada Post to sell other courier companies and you will get a deal.

5 day/week door to door mail delivery has to end… period. Once a week to community mail boxes, with few exceptions.

[@aleayawijaya2519]

Once a week delivery, or if you need your mail right away, pick it up at the Post office.

[@aleayawijaya2519]

Amazon is NOT fee SHIPPING, we pay 100.00 a year for that!!

[@shakyjake2133]

If you spend $35 or more you get free shipping on most items, stop spreading false information

[@aleayawijaya2519]

@@shakyjake2133 I am NOT spreading false information.... So quick to jump the gun. YOU, SIR, are wrong, and spreading INNACURATE INFORMATION. Your statement "MOST ITEMS" So there is, in FACT, Shipping fees if you spend less than 35.00 OR buy something that is NOT ELIGIBLE. Go have a nap, perhaps you will wake on the other side of the bed.

[@gospelninja2.016]

​@@shakyjake2133 I must got a older prime since I been on it for so long. It cost me 6.99 for prime a month with free shipping. I saved over 500$+ this year for free shipping... Lol. Had no idea its that much now.

[@BrendaMcLaughlin-xe5dj]

Please! Everyone in Canada should not puchase anything for Christmas unless you have small children to buy for. Let's protest in support of the many Canadians in line up at a local food bank or living in horrible conditions. 🤔 Do not support government sham on GST!

Ram Raids (like the truck that reversed through the window of a jewellery store) have been a scourge on the New Zealand retail market for years.

[@eastcoastrifraf]

Canada Post is shooting themselves in the foot. They moved to not deliver mail to homes at the same time Amazon and others now do home deliveries, most areas using 3rd party shipping (which could of been Canada Post). Now they do this. Amazon should just offer to do mail :)

[@grobanna]

Word is that Santa Claus has also paused shipments. They're not releasing the details to avoid pandemonium.

[@devinmunroe6283]

What about menopause? Women suffer daily and are unheard either due to lack of doctors or lack of educated doctors who deny they are suffering from it. Women deserve better.

[@marcschouten3527]

I’ve heard that the National Brotherhood of Telegraph Operators are going to strike in solidarity.

[@murraypritchard3127]

It irks me that our national news talks about fluff pet stories in their program! That’s national news…..not!!!

[@evilliz13]

Whats the reward for turning this guy in? Free health care from his company, lol? Why drones? Would they do this for anyone that isn't a billonare?

[@aleayawijaya2519]

OMG, THIS DOES NOTHING TO PROTECT THE ARTIC, OMFG!!!

[@sarvangdave3646]

Canada needs to be more aggressive with its Arctic policy. This does not feel enough.

[@stephenaisaican]

Time For more independent carriers stop being lazy get to work

Amazon is slow right now.

[@aibilliewilliams9935]

Inuit are most impact

[@chrisemms2001]

So the job market sucks and even if you're lucky enough to get/have a job your paycheck is taxed to death and pretty much useless due to the high coat of living here ( aka gdp per capita is in the tanker) and what do you know crime is now through the roof. Gee who would have seen that coming 🤔 🤦‍♂️

[@Nana-W2024]

The company needs to make an offer that actually works for all employees, not getting rid of full timers and not even keeping up with inflation with pay increases. Once again Corporation trying to keep huge incomes for Executives while shafting employees. Remember who to really blame for the strike!

[@SeaTrekkie88]

The company is going bankrupt, they cannot make an offer to shower employees with 24% pay raises, and benefits befit a liberal cabinet minster. Canada post is dying and the union is hastening its death.

[@guardianoffire8814]

The company is crown corporation. Even if the claim is that it is functioning like private company; the reality is that Union knows that it can extort as much without push back as its still govt. Canada Post can't afford anything and is nearly bankrupt from subsidizing rural deliveries and forced by govt to keep delivering letters.

[@stephenwood4431]

Canada Post has been delivering Drug Dealers Drugs for years now.

So why you being a little narc for

I already switched to Amazon, not going back.
