There’s a family trip, my birthday, another finance review (lol), and some resources based on feedback from all one (1) of my regular readers.…

Finance Review: June 2020
Being back in quarantine is great for the wallet, less great for the mental health. My net worth is officially in the 6 digits now, but at what cost…😭 Unfortunately, another side-effect of being locked on campus is that my life is incredibly routin/mundane/boring so I’m hard pressed to come up with interesting things to…
Finance Review: May 2020
Is it too late to refund 2020. I’m quite worn out so this will probably be the shortest one yet. Spendings Report: $824 Almost half of this month’s spendings was a session with a financial planner. It was very worthwhile and I will write a more thorough post about it when the world isn’t quite…
Finance Review: April 2020

Being Canadian-Chinese, the December-early-February period is the double whammy of holiday periods. Gifts, another trip, and last-minute changes make for a pricey combo. However, despite all of life’s surprises I…
Finance review: December 2019
Happy new year dear reader! May 2020 be the best year for all of us yet. Spendings tend to go a little a lot out of control around the Holidays and I’m no exception. Let’s see how I fared this holiday season. Spending Report: $2542.78 Top 3 expenses for December in descending order: Tuition ($1155CAD,…
