Weekend Reading – Real estate advice, Aristocrats on the rise, Spendapalooza and more!
Hey Everyone!
Welcome to my latest Weekend Reading edition that shares some of my favourite articles from the week that was across the personal finance and investing blogosphere.
A reminder, in case you missed last week’s edition –
here it is– about finding undervalued stocks, Air Miles alternatives, how to build an income portfolio, how to buy Cryptocurrency in Canada, retirement at 60 (without saving a dime before age 45!) and more!

The stock market fallout during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic put retirees living off their investment income at risk. That was especially the case for those following the “financial independence, retire early” (F.I.R.E.) movement.
F.I.R.E. investors are largely people in their 30s and 40s who save aggressively and invest early to build up a seven-figure portfolio to retire early or work way less as they get older. Those plans can be thwarted when stock markets tank, as they did last March.
