The Frugal Canadian: Tax Software for Macs
http://frugalcanadian.blogspot.com/2008/01/tax-software-for-macs.html
A frugal spender seeks to find new ways to save money and increase her net worth. Monday, January 28, 2008. Tax Software for Macs. Up until 2007 there have been very few options for Mac users wanting to file their tax returns electronically. Users could use web-based programs such as U-file and QuickTabWeb. But there haven't been many downloadable. Which I have been quite happy with. Much to my surprise they have come out with a version for the Mac! Another program available for Macs is TaxTron. It is a ...

Bank account optimization | centsprout
https://centsprout.wordpress.com/2011/09/03/bank-account-optimization
Just another canadian personal finance weblog. Auto saving for retirement. September 3, 2011. This week is Chapter 2 of I Will Teach You To Be Rich. And it’s all about bank account optimization. Not much for me to do on this front, as this is something I’ve been on top for for the last 5 years or so since I opened my PC Financial. No fee online bank accounts (savings checking). Over the years I’ve kept an eye on the other offerings in Canadian no fee online banking land, such as ING. That said I still ha...

Just another canadian personal finance weblog. I’m always coming accross books that sound interesting, but at that particular time I’m reading something else and then I forget about it. And then when I need to find a book to read, I can never remember the titles of all those books I wanted to read. So I’m going to start keeping this list of books for my own reference.

https://centsprout.wordpress.com/2011/08/21/debt-free
Just another canadian personal finance weblog. Some things in life are more important than paying off interest? August 21, 2011. Well the student loans are now finally paid off! Approximately $25K in 3 years. Next on my PF to-do list is to read I Will Teach You To Be Rich. I get the feeling not everything will apply from a Canadian perspective, but hopefully most of it will still be relevant. Responses to “Debt free! Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Fuel efficiency with a manual transmission | centsprout
https://centsprout.wordpress.com/2007/12/05/fuel-efficiency-with-a-manual-transmission
Just another canadian personal finance weblog. Fuel efficiency with a manual transmission. December 5, 2007. I’ve always driven manual transmission cars, I even took my road test in one! Anyway, this past week-end I had to take a rental car on an out of town trip and apparently all rental cars are automatics these days. I guess it makes sense, since not everyone can drive a manual. The actual car will be cheaper (automatic transmissions are usually more expensive). What kind of cars do you guys drive?

A quote | centsprout
https://centsprout.wordpress.com/2012/02/03/a-quote
Just another canadian personal finance weblog. February 3, 2012. I wanted to make a note of this quote I came across, because of my constant state of confusion on whether to focus on a career or side business. If you research how wealth is built the most common source is business with most of the remainder coming from real estate. The third asset class paper assets is typically a parking place for wealth built in business and real estate rather than being a source of wealth in itself. Feed for this Entry.

Just another canadian personal finance weblog. It pays to be informed. January 7, 2008. I’m finding it a little tough to get back in to the swing of posting. I guess that’s what I get for taking such a long break! Have inspired to me to at least give it a try. The worst they can do is say no, right? In preparation for my upcoming move, I requested to have my cell phone number changed to the new area code and had the $10 fee waived. How did I do that? Responses to “It pays to be informed”.
