This week Bob and Nelson welcome another excellent guest to the pod. Anthony is the Newcomer Investor on X (@newcomerinvest), who absolutely loves the game of business.

After starting out as primarily a dividend growth investor, Anthony has evolved into primarily a growth investor -- but don't worry dividend lovers. He still owns a bunch of dividend stocks.

We talk about Brookfield, Thomson Reuters, and Franco Nevada, (plus more!) while Anthony also discusses things like how his research process has evolved and why he mixes individual stocks and ETFs.

Another great episode. You guys are going to enjoy this one.

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.

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.

In this week's episode we talk stocks. Dividend stocks, of course.

We cover a bunch of different names, including Telus, Canadian banks, Capital Power, Brookfield, and more. A great show for anyone looking for stock ideas.

It used to be if you had One. Million. Dollars., you were rich. Now it barely buys you a half-decent house in the most expensive real estate markets in the country.

But $1M is still a lot of money, especially to folks who are just starting out. And the fact is the the typical Canadian retires with about $250k in investible assets.

So, this brings up the question. Can someone retire on a million bucks in 2026?

Bob and Nelson weigh in on that and the retirement inflation we see on social media. We break it down and reveal the actual questions one needs to answer, and how having a dollar amount in mind is only the first step towards early retirement.

"Why don't y'all use a financial advisor?"

This week's episode of the pod is a little more reflective than most.

Bob and Nelson spend a lot of time talking about the 'how' part of DIY investing, helping to educate y'all on just exactly what we do and how we do it. This week's episode focuses more on the why, and why Canadians might distrust the financial advice industry.

This week on the pod Bob and Nelson tackle one of the toughest questions in the investing world.

Just when should you sell a stock, anyway?

The short answer is this. It's complicated and most investors suck at it. They sell when a stock gets back to break even, or when it hits some target price they've pulled out of the sky.

We share some thinking that has worked for us. Maybe it'll work for you, too.

Just what should you do with your cash, anyway?

We're not talking about investments here, but cash. That is money in your emergency fund, or that's been put aside for a big purchase in the next 6-12 months, or perhaps a reserve waiting to be invested.

Most folks will default to the highest yield possible, or put their money into an asset that might appear safe but actually has hidden risks.

This week on the pod Bob and Nelson dive deep into the world of cash, including a trick Nelson uses to maximize the yield on his cash without taking any additional risk.
