Who’s going to the Rich Dad Academy?

Before we stepped out of the car, I told my friend they will sell us this and that at the Rich Dad Education Workshop. After all, despite all the freebies and the come-hither, it is a marketing event that we are going to. I told her (self-assuredly) I do not easily say yes. That in [...]

Big news for small business, the new 1099K tax form (Infographic)

Here’s news for Paypal earners – they will now have a tax form to fill, and of course, their online incomes are no longer below the radar as in the (golden) years past. Their bane though, is the government’s gain (think $378 billion, which is the tax gap). But it’s not all grim news in [...]

Gmail has given me 7 GB of free space. My iPhone has 16 GB. I do not even know how many my laptop has, but it is getting slower so I realize I am getting close – dangerously close – to the limit. A lot of space gone – because of clutter. I don’t know [...]

Why stay?

A chance encounter. I talked to someone today and was surprised to find out she is a lawyer in Germany. But like most professionals in Canada, who face the bar of credential recognition and what it stands for – further studies, time and expense – she thinks she will never get to practice her profess

Finding your inner fashion

Seeing with the mind’s eye gowns of the most beautiful fabric – and doodling and spinning outrageous stories – were my favorite pastimes when I was a young girl. I would draw upon pages – reams – of paper, that I was sure I would be a fashion designer when I grew up. But logic [...]

Time to Write

I thought Canada would give me more time to write. It did. But not doing anything – and actually being able to write – if prolonged – may be a scary reality for a new immigrant. Canada affords one many pleasures, like exploration of its many parks and walkways, or the comfort of its [...]
