Wealth Through Investing

Paddleboard in fog

Welcome to Wealth Through Investing

When I got back into investing, I was overwhelmed by the amount of information and the number of companies to invest in. What should I invest in? How much money should I invest? How do I get started? What are the Canadian equivalents of American saving accounts that everyone talks about? There was so much to learn it often felt like being in a fog. I knew where I wanted to go but didn’t know how to get there.

If you find yourself asking these questions, you’ve come to the right place, especially if you are a Canadian investor just starting out. Follow along with my real life investing adventures as I make my way through the investing wilderness to generate the wealth to reach my goals, all through a Canadian lens. Even if you are not a Canadian investor, but are starting your own investing adventure, you might learn from my triumphs and avoid the stumbles I’ve made along the way.
