Q: After many years of learning how to make money, still working on that, full retirement is near and I am beginning to learn how to spend my money, and suprisingly, to me, there is more to it that I'd imagined. Using back of the napkin figures, a $68000 investment in HDIV would bring in a little over $600 per month pre tax. This particular ETF has been up and down but roughly flat over 3.5 years, so a guy would have his $68000 in tact, and over $23000 pre tax in monthly distributions from a RRIF. Seems like part of a good income strategy for a guy used to high risk? I use HDIV as an example because I own some. Lastly, I heard about and read " Your Retirement Income Blueprint" here at 5i, looking for more reading information on the topic?

Q: I bought CALF in early January and it's been unchanged since then, while the broader markets are up significantly YTD. Would you suggest betting on small cap recovery this year and keeping CALF or selling it and buying something like VTV, SPYV, or MOAT? If switching, which one out of these 3 you'd recommend for better long term growth? My portfolio is well diversified between the sectors, so I picked these 3 options as they will keep my portfolio in target ranges. Thanks.

Q: WELL has required a lot of patience. I know you still like it, but is there another smallish cap you would select over it? I own TSU, LMN, SIS, and SYZ.

Q: Thank you sharing your insight answering my most recent questions.

BCE is getting quite a working over and I have a few questions (please deduct as necessary).

BCE next reports on May 2 (I believe) and +ive perf. is likely essential

1) How accurate has BCE been on its reporting historically?

2) How far in advance of the "official" report do they provide guidance or their anticipated performance?

3) What would some early indicators of a dividend cut or worse be? (Prior to May 2).

I suppose Telus would be subject to similar forces and in the same boat.

Thank you
