Q: I have $20,000 in CBO. Because I thought it pays out interest I have been keeping it in my TFSA account. Should I put it in my unregistered account and next year replace it with LNF which, hopefully will grow with a ten year outlook?

Q: Does it matter price-wise if you buy a stock before/after the dividend is paid? Is it the same answer if you buy before/after it goes ex-dividend? I am a long term investor so wondering if there is any significant savings to trying to time the purchase a bit?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi,
When you provide a % allocated to gold, should we add our stocks and bullion together?
For example, I own KL and WM in terms of stocks and also PHYS. I always see the stocks as an type of investment and PHYS as another (commodity/currency) and don't really add them together when looking at the % of the portfolio. is this a mistake?
I know they are closely linked but would appreciate your thoughts on how investors should view these when setting up their portfolios.
Thanks,
Dan
