 Our objective is to cover a multitude of theoretical and practical subjects on self investing. For a better understanding of the scope of our site, see Information- List of 44 topics on this home page.
Explain how the independent investor can react given the level of concentration of the Canadian financial system, and encourage regulatory reforms.
Why so much information?
- No one said self investing was easy.
- To help you change your ways towards investment selecting and expense management, especially to stay the course in the face of an avalanche of advertising by the financial system.
We want to learn with you. We both appreciate and welcome your comments on every aspect of our site – to build on its strengths and to correct its weaknesses.

Quotation
|
A small box containing a large nut is affixed to a well-anchored post. The nut can be accessed only through a single, small hole in the box designed to accomodate an outstretched monkey’s grasping paw. Easy enough for the monkey to reach into, but when it makes a fist to clasp the nut, impossible for the monkey to withdraw. Of course, it is immediately evident to everyone (except the monkey) that all the creature need do to free itself is to let go of its prize. Clever hunters have discovered, however, that they can secure their prey hours or even days later, because the monkey- driven by desire- will not relinquish the nut. It will die first (and often does).Benjamin R. Barber |
