No.1536
>>1535I think in that case that it's good to have an investment in the things you own. If you don't want to market a skill then understand the things you buy. The things you buy can be seen as investments.
No.1538
>>1535That's the best investment plan if you don't have many siblings or your parents have lots of houses, I have 4 siblings so I have to get my own house one day.

>>1540The best ways of doing it is to put it into either dividend yielding stocks which repay your investment in 20 months for example (bank stocks are like this) or find oversold companies that are reliable and bag hold until it goes over the evaluation.
You can invest in real-estate even if you only have 300$ through REITs. Real estate owning companies pay out 90% of their profits to shareholders. While you don't own a property you collect dividends off of the growth of commercial, residential or industrial real-estate

>>1534I paid my house off before making any serious investments so as long as it gets better sometime in the next 10 years or so I'll be fine. Once you're free from rent and mortgage you end up with more money than you know what to do with.

>>1582Sold it by accident. Did a limit sell order instead of a stop sell order.
Decided to get HMMJ.TO which is ETF containing medical cannabis among others pharmaceuticals. Has a 0.87% MER which is unfortunate, but probably don't want to be dealing with individual pharmaceutical companies myself and will likely return better than a single random canabis company
