1. A good savings account that can provide more than ING Direct (Canada), which is at UPDATED March/02/10: 3% for their TFSA. Here are the requirements:
- Is Canadian or available to Canadians
- Offers direct fund transfer with a hold time of no more than a week
- Is regulated by either the CDIC or other agencies.
Remember, I am NOT looking for GICs or long-term investments, just a good Savings account. I will reward you by either signing up with your referral link if there is one, if not, I will provide $10 as a finder’s fee. Please include your email in your reply (it will not be published, it’s for me to contact you).
2. Someone that can enlighten me on how to invest in Mutual Funds. Which ones are the best and how do you trade them? I will also reward the person depending on the information provided.
- Its sub-company, Koodo Mobile, will be soon moving to a HSPA network in April/May. (Good change of profit) Link
- Telus has reported a 18% decrease in subscribers in Q4. (Good entry point)
- Telus has moved to the HSPA+ network and released the IPhone, which will create a bigger customer base for the next quarters since data phones keep growing in popularity (Good change of profit).
The official settlement date was September 7. It has been reported to November 7 due to people that have not logged in yet to get their settlement. Personally, I couldn’t care less about those people. They had more than enough time (more than three months) to do so and we shouldn’t wait for them. It’s their problem. But I guess we will have to wait two more months now.
How much should you expect from that settlement? Not a lot. For FXIG and ITS, you should expect a maximum of 10% of your capital (deposits minus withdrawals). For the other programs, you should get about 2% of your capital.
So, I expect about $60 for my more than $1000 investment (about $500 in FXIG and $500 in PSHI). This is sad, but better than nothing. I hope FeederFund will stay true to their words this time and let us withdraw our settlement amount on November 7.
PPREI has been down for a few weeks, but is now back online, with a few changes.
They dropped FriendlyPay, and are now accepting Paypal, E-Bullion, and Bank Wire. Don’t worry, they contacted Paypal to make sure they can accept invsestments through them and everything is fine.
Now that the Escrow fund is gone, I think the safest way would be to invest with Paypal, but it should still be considered risky.
For those who have invested through FriendlyPay, don’t worry, your funds are still invested and safe.
The worst that could happen, according to PPREI, if everything fails, is that the members will get refunds.
They sent out the usual e-mail. They start with an historic of their program, and how much they gave out to members. After, they say that they have been scammed by other programs. They finish their e-mail with the usual reminder of the Terms of Service to avoid legal issues.
I never got paid out by them and they are now classified as Scam. This is a sad time for the HYIP Arena, too many programs closed down lately.
With all the recent problems with E-Gold, some autosurfs have stopped accepting it so it’s harder to make money with E-Gold investments. I hope this situation will resolve soon because it affects the payouts in a negative way.
