As a motivated buyer, you’ve got to love down days like today. I used the big drop to add to my positions. I’ve been making a lot of purchases as of late, but I don’t anticipate this surge of activity to continue for much longer. Actually, as we head towards the end of the year, my main focus will again shift back towards building up my cash positions.

I gotta say, I’m thankful for my income and passive income streams (from all 8 rental properties), which are making all of this speculation possible. I realize that I’ve [click to continue…]

Ever played the lottery and had high hopes of winning it big? I’ll confess, I have… More so when I was a little kid, but even most recently (September 2013), I’ll admit to having purchased a few lottery tickets. In fact, at my old company, we used to pool funds together and play semi-regularly. I can’t say I ever had much success with it, though, perhaps winning $20 was the highlight of my gambles…

But even today, the thought [click to continue…]

What can I say? These days, I’ve got gold on my mind… But it’s not that I’ve been seduced by the intoxicatingly beautiful yellow metal (although I will confess that physical gold bullion is quite alluring to marvel at). No, rather, my fascination with gold quite literally [click to continue…]

I have spent very little time covering my side hustle properties on this blog… Since my investment partners and I won both Rental Property SH #1 and Rental Property SH #2 last year, I have basically stopped talking about them completely.

It may then come as no surprise for readers to learn then, that for the most part, my [click to continue…]

I’ve made a few new transactions over these past few months, so I thought I would give readers an update on the overall status of my portfolio.

For starters, I’m still holding majority cash, as I continue to make a conscious effort to boost up the reserves as much as I possibly can on any given month. In my mind, I still believe that [click to continue…]

The stock fire has been ON FIRE this week! For those who are still active participants in this game, I’m sure it must feel pretty good, right? It’s no secret to readers that my own stance is rather bearish on the current market, but don’t worry, I don’t plan on playing that side of the coin for too long (I much prefer to be a bull!). Having said that, watching the market continue to [click to continue…]

From the inception of this blog up until now, my primary focus has been on reaching early financial independence. When I first started out on the journey, I thought it would be an ambitious goal to get to the top of the early FI mountain by age 37.5, so I set that as my [click to continue…]

The markets have been rallying as of late, and many stocks have been able to enjoy basking in the GREEN. As it pertains to gold mining stocks, they have also been surging, which comes as somewhat of a surprise given their recent history of dismal performance.

But if I’ve learned anything with this sector, it’s [click to continue…]

Rubicon (RBY/RMX.TO) Update (October 05, 2015)

by FI Fighter on October 5, 2015

in Precious Metals Updates

When it comes to junior mining stocks, well, what can I really say? These shares are volatile so it’s extremely important for a speculator to stay on top of the latest news and developments. Just recently, I recommended Rubicon Minerals (RBY/RMX.TO) as a Top Pick, and this morning, the [click to continue…]
