Q: Hello 5i:
I wish to do a little consolidating in the portfolio. Could you rank the stocks above, from a total return point of view. Obviously, the dividend is important, as is dividend growth.
as always, thanks

Q: With roll-ups like Constellation, don't things tend to end badly? They reach a certain size and can no longer acquire enough companies to expand at 10-20% yearly, it is just an exponential mathematical equation that they cannot acquire every tech company in the known world so growth has to slow down radically eventually. CSU is competing in larger spaces with more competition and fewer companies than their classical 5-40 million revenue companies that they have acquired historically. Is this not a major concern with CSU here?

Q: Hi,

I contribute monthly to my family's RESP, but as the value of the family plan grew I've started to question what happens with the money if they don't go to school.

Turns out both myself and the gov't get our capital back (no taxes) plus the earnings on the investment (taxable), plus 20% tax (the gov'ts share, I suppose).

My concern is that I'm prioritizing my RESP contribution over my TFSA contribution (thus not maxing out my TFSA). In your opinion, should I be prioritizing TFSA contribution over RESP?
