Brian Mulroney is such a pig, such a very nice example of who Quebeckers are truly are: PIGS. Brian Mulroney arrogance on Monday appearance in Toronto among Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel is just a sign of his intelligence. A Nobel Peace Prize sitting next to the biggest Quebec ****** of all. I wrote about Mulroney before, and I guess the writing will never stop. If Brian Mulroney had been able to accept cash while being PM, showing up publicly even after.... I mean, we know about the Airbus, we know about the Schreiber affair. There’s been 2 publicly knows, 2 publicly recognize stories, but if there’s been 2, there could be more. And I believe that Brian Mulroney is hiding a lot more than what we publicly know. Are Canadians are completely dumb or what? The money cash from Brian Mulroney had probably served to pay for the education of his children: Caroline Mulroney, Ben Mulroney, Mark Mulroney and Nicolas Mulroney. All Mulroney’s, all children from the evil, educated on dirty money. Currently, Schreiber is in prison, in his native Germany. And what about Brian Mulroney? He’s showing publicly is ugly person. I want the poor man in prison, where he belongs. And what had been Brian Mulroney sentence anyway? The Oliphant public inquiry hasn’t done its job. It hadn’t to come to a define conclusion and sentence. And this allows any Canadian Prime Minister to act like a criminal, accepting money, selling Canadians dignity, without any consequences.

Dividend earnings for May 2010: 364.28$
The month of May had passed by too quickly. The terrible heat we had in Montreal a couple of days ago seem to be gone, at least for now. I am feeling much better than I used to be a couple of days ago.
My first month within my metro pass went well overall. On Saturday, I had received 15.33$ in dividend from Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN) and 21.60$ from The Consumers Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN). My Consumers Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN) dividend should DRIP later on this week to provide me more units. I am looking forward to received somewhere around 3 new units of The Consumers Waterheater Income Fund (CWI.UN). So this close my dividend income for the month of May 2010 to 364.28$!
Currently, I am lucky enough to make new investment on a regular basis. This allows me to see my dividend income grow from month to month. Very soon, I will be earning dividend on a quarterly basis instead of a daily basis, but that won’t change too much things. At that time, I will probably earn a bit less in dividend earning from certain companies. I had received my voting package from Bell Aliant. For now, Bell Aliant is still a .UN investment like I love to name them. Bell Aliant had planned to change into a corporation beginning of 2011. Starting January 2011, Bell Aliant dividend will fall from the current fantastic 2.417$ to 1.90$. This represents, of course, a dividend cut. But at 1.90$ dividend per stock, Bell Aliant dividend will still be impressive. The dividend cut simply represent Bell Aliant tentative to smoothly move into a corporation. Not too many .UN investments will be able to maintain their current dividend once they change themselves into a corporation. BUT….. There’re some exceptions. And I hold them in my investment portfolio!
From my understanding, Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN) will keep the same dividend distribution once turn into a corporation and same thing (positively sure) with Pembina Pipeline Income Fund (PIF.UN). Those 2 are companies in the energy sector – it took solid business to be able to keep the same distribution level. Those are just examples being took from my investment portfolio. Some other of my .UN investment will shortly cut their distribution. They are: Yellow Pages Income Fund (YLO.UN) and Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN). The dividend of these 2 companies will be cut when they will transform into a corporation, just like Bell Aliant.
Other than my very nice May dividend earnings, I am very pleased to announce…
I just received the money from my TD Financial GIC investment that had came to mature date. I had received 1 266.86$ in cash. I had made a profit of 266.86$ on 5 years GIC… Not too bad. It’s represent a gain of 26.64% for 5 years, or if you prefer 5.3284% per year for 5 years. This morning, I had visited a TD Waterhouse office to have the money to get transferred into my RSP broker account, where I currently hold 269.11$ in cash. At a total of 1 535.97$, I will be able to make a nice little investment. I am not quite sure what I am going to invest in. I was thinking about maybe 100 units of Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN) because I want to hit the 1 000 units of JE.UN inside my portfolio.
Anyhow, June is happily coming over, with a new RSP investment. And surprise, I am able to pay off everything needed with what I currently hold as cash (and from I have leftovers on credit line…). I know doing this is bad, but I debit what I had left from my credit lines to pay off my expenses of this month. I usually never do this. But I did it for this month because I planning for my next investment (non registered one). The debit off my credit lines only represent 320$ anyway. For the month of June, I want to save as much possible for my next investment, which is suppose to be 100 extra stocks of Corby Distilleries Ltd. (CDL.A). At more than 15$ per stock, 100 units represent at least 1 600$ in total, quite some money knowing my situation. My feeling is good despite my situation; I am pretty sure I am going to be able to make it happen.
Latest update of my investment portfolio
I just update my investment portfolio. With the recent TSX gains, I really wanted to have a clear look at what everything is looking now. And it’s looking good! I am now at 87 042.86$, a loss of 1 666.65$ compare to May 12. The loss is not major, I am sure I will be able to recover very soon.

Sunshine, shopping and Bell Aliant dividend
I had received today the dividend for Bell Aliant. I had received 24.17$, like every month. So far for the month of May, I had received 327.35$ in dividend, and the month is not even over yet! I am still missing Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN) dividend. After what, I believe I will be done with May dividend. So it will bring the overall to close to 340$ for the month of May. Nice! Of course, all of those marvelous dividend DRIP, which mean I won’t touch directly a third of what I had earned… It could be easy to cash in the dividend and spend the money, but the DRIP does worth it and at this time, I am lucky to earn enough money to cover my needs and even more. But I have to say, for the month of June, I am running short in cash. I need my paycheck of next week to cover for the month of June. Which I dislike. The key of my money management is to save and be able to be the upcoming month with the money earn during the current month… Anyhow, I do not have any problem when it come to managing my money, just I am no working full-time at my day-time job, but maybe I should. Anyhow, this is giving me a lot of freedom to do just whatever I want and that whatever mean mostly, these days, sleeping late in the morning. Working, investing, following the market, it can easily kill a girl. It didn’t kill me, but I have to say, lately I had been catching on sleeping. And trust me, I sleep a lot. But strangely, the more I sleep, the more I want to stay in bed and it’s part of the reason why I haven’t launch my Web site project, it’s part of the reason why I didn’t write any new HubPages for quite sometime now. But I plan to catch on because I am need of more cash; you are going to find out why…
The no shopping week had turned into a shopping week as I purchased sandal as I couldn’t stand wearing big running shoes anymore with the hot weather. I put my sandals of last summer right to the garbage after getting my feet hurt out of them. Last year I had purchased some very cheap sandals, I had purchased 2 pairs directly from Zellers lol. Nice ways to save money, but the 2 pair of sandals were comfortable only for one summer. I shop around a bit, finally purchased a real good pair and after wearing them; I started feeling better right away. I am now at more than 40$ in Google AdSense money, I am looking forward to work on my HubPages and than I may be able to reach the 100$ by July, if I am lucky. Working long hours online for so little money could be seem vain, but it can turn out o be very fun, especially when its money being earned during spare time. And not only did I purchase a new pair of sandal, but I also purchase 3 long skirts absolutely beautiful for the summer. So summer is going to be hot! lol…
Other than sandals and Google AdSense., the TSX gain extraordinary points today and I am glade it did. My overall portfolio might not worth 88 000$ and up like it did previously beginning of May, but I am getting this tough market time quite easily and I just cannot wait to hit the 100 000$ in assets, even the 90 000$, it’s going to be quite something, just spectacular. A 90 000$ for my 30th birthday in August would be very fun. Champaign and caviar please! lol...... :0)

Checking out the margin investing at TD Waterhouse
I begin my check about margin and it’s not by tomorrow that I am going to write a « Margin Investing for Dummies » kind of post lol. Not that margin is terribly difficult to understand. But I find margin investing quite horrible and disghting. And myself, after reading a bit and asking some questions to TD Waterhouse, I am insecure about margin and I personally do not recommend margin to anyone. Why? Because everyday, you have the responsibility to check your account to make sure you are not under a Margin Call. And if you are under a Margin Call, you have to refund whatever need to be refund on the same day. Because the day following the Margin Call, the credit department had the right to sell your stocks and units! How horrible that sound? The explanations giving at TD Waterhouse were clear on that point and I begin to think that margin is just a very horrible horrible thing. I don’t want to have to worry about the market condition at all. I don’t want any such of whatever responsibilities.
There’s no easy way, but borrowing money to invest through margin is not a good option, especially in those difficult times. The stock market is unpredictable, very difficult to time the market these days. My very last investment was 100 units of Pengrowth Energy Trust (PGF.UN) at around 10.50$ per unit. At the time, I taught it was a good deal. But on date of today, Pengrowth Energy Trust (PGF.UN) is at… 9.47$! I do no regret my investment, but today price for PGF.UN is of course a lot cheaper that what its use to be.
Myself, I do not plan to use the margin money to invest, but more to pay credit lines I have. That way is not easy either and to tell the true, margin is disturbing me to a point where I might not be able to set it up to my account. I am still thinking at this down, but I am really not getting a good feeling about margin so I might not set it up. I didn’t move yet. Right now, I work at my jobs, I try to follow the market and combating the heat! I am a Western girl, whenever the weather is too hot I just cannot stand it. I would prefer much winter to the weather we have right now in Montreal but this is of course my own preference. The fact that I have to walk 2 hours everyday do not help and you can imagine, as soon as I hit home, I hit... my bath. I am trying to keep my expenses under control. Also for this week, I am looking forward not to spend any money, as I have everything needed.
So for now, it will be a no margin and no expenses week while trying to beat the heat… ;)

Thanks God, the TSX had gain 115.40 points today
At a point, I really begin to think that God himself want me to reach 100 000$ in assets before the end of 2010… The TSX close today at 11 521.35 points, a nice gain of 521 points. My non registered portfolio partly recovers. I am currently at 45 775.96$, but I am still experiencing 1 611.03$ in losses compare to May 12. I am confident I will recover form the money loss in the upcoming weeks.
And about my DRIP
I had received 56.50$ from Emera (EMA). Emera dividend provides me 2 extra stocks. I also received 29.57$ in dividend from Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN), which bring in 2 extra units. So everything is rolling over and everything is just fine the way it is. I am at the 1 300$ in dividend earning so far for 2010!
Working online for Google and me
I am now at a bit more than 30$ in Google AdSense income. I would like to reach one again the payout of 100$. So I am looking to spend some time working on articles for HubPages. I have developed more than 100 article ideas so now had came the time to hit another 100$ Google payout. And if you think it’s easy to work online, well it’s truly not.
