  • Ep 29 - Can You Really Retire on $1M
    Apr 20 2026

    It used to be that if you had one million dollars, you were rich.

    But things are different today. In a world where seemingly everybody is in the seven-figure club and $1M doesn't even buy a nice house in Toronto or Vancouver anymore, is it really enough to retire on? Or do Canadians need to save more?

    Bob and Nelson tackle these questions on the pod this week, taking a math-based approach to the whole situation. We argue that you may not need as much as you first think, and there are additional variables to consider. There's no easy solution to the question, which is what makes it so much fun.

  • Ep 28 - We (Keep) Talkin' Dividends
    Apr 13 2026

    We had so much fun talking dividends last week that we decided to do it again.

    We cover some of our favourite stocks in the energy sector, pipelines, gold, REITs, and a whole lot more. Plus, a little look at a company that has quietly become a pretty interesting buy.
