Canadian Women Regret About Money

The full title is “What Canadian women regret most about money—and how Gen Z can avoid it” You can read the Money Sense article here .

Personally, I did start investing a bit too late as I was in my 30’s. Then I tried everything, Canadian Savings Bonds, Corporate Bonds, Mutual Funds, US Stocks, Foreign Stocks and Canadian Stocks. I have ended up making money from my investments to live on and I now mostly have Canadian Dividend Growth Stocks. It is Canadian Growth Stocks in my Trading Account and RIFs. However, I am using my TFSA as fooling around money and I am mostly, but not entirely buying Canadian Dividend Growth stocks that are small caps. I do have small caps that do not pay dividends.

I guess the thing about me is that I have always lived below my means. I have never spent more than I can afford. I probably got this attitude from my mother. I did what I could afford. With my first job I rented a 2 two bedroom apartment with 3 other women. There were lots of shared accommodations when I started to work. A problem is that that life style was not stable. On the other hand, I ended up with some friends for life.

One thing I think is important is that I do realize I am spending money when I use my credit card. Unfortunately, it would seem that some people do not believe this and they get into debt difficulties.

On my other blog I wrote yesterday about HLS Therapeutics Inc (TSX-HLS, OTC-HLTRF) ... learn more. Next, I will write about Reitmans (Canada) Ltd (TSXV-RET.A, OTC-RTMAF) ... learn more on Wednesday, June 10, 2026 around 5 pm
