    1. @maskers areretarded Inflation has always been a variable. Minimum wage is waaay bigger too. Buses used to cost 5 cents and cokes 2 cents. DERP!!!!!

  1. Thanks for continues updates👍I’d rather trade the Crypto market as its more profitable. I make an average of $25,000 per week even though I barely trade myself

    1. Same here, I hold Mrs Katie Haun in high esteem because of the weekly profit am receiving trading with her strategies

    2. Mrs Katie Haun service is a talk of the town in North Holland Netherlands 🇳🇱, I started with a little amount of 1ETH and she made huge returns and I have been constantly investing with her ❤️

    3. I’m glad I invested with Katie Haun , I was finally able to pay off all the loans I took last year, she truly is a lifesaver.🥰

    4. Trading with Mrs Katie Haun makes me fulfilled because of the huge monthly profits am getting from my investment through her.

    1. @Thrill House I literally pointed out facts; so, what exactly are you yammering on about?

      You can’t even differentiate between facts and opinions…..

  2. JT told injured veterans that they are asking for more than Canada can give, then turned around and helped fund a war in another country (non NATO) on a completely different continent……..

    1. @Youtube music Time for another new troll account. I’m sure you think Trump won the election and vaccines are just tracking devices.

    2. The conservatives ended life long pensions for the military and took injured vets to court arguing the country doesn’t have a duty to care for soldiers injured in service.

    1. Depends. Retirement is based on how long in retirement. $1.7 million will give you ~$90,000 a year inflation protected (*) for 33 years. So if you were 65 today it would last you until the age of 98.

  3. $1.7 million is ~ $90,000 a year for 33 years assuming no other income (no CPP/OAS ) using standard interest tables. LOLZ.

  4. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 .
    Most seniors get 1200.00 a month and live at half the poverty line .

  5. Retire comfortably in Canada?
    Im retiring in Maine where i can afford a house and i can defend my home and family without being charged with murder.
