October was another strong month for my Canadian ETF and dividend portfolio — now sitting at $440,000 across Wealthsimple and Questrade. I earned $1,345 in dividends this month, made one small but important change to my holdings, and re-evaluated a few positions to focus more on long-term growth.

In this update, I walk through:
🔹 My new portfolio total and updated retirement target
🔹 The REIT I sold and what I learned about holding vs. growing
🔹 A viewer’s great point about ETF overlap (VFV, VTI, QQC)
🔹 My growth vs. covered call ETF experiment results
🔹 How I’m rebuilding our emergency fund — and making it earn a little more

If you’re investing in Canada and building your wealth for retirement, this video is for you.
📊 Tools I use: Passiv, Wealthica, Blossom Social
💰 Accounts: Wealthsimple Trade, Questrade, TFSA, RRSP
🔹 Topics: Canadian investing, ETF strategy, dividend income, covered calls, retirement investing over 50

A big part of investing is becoming finically literate. Investing is not just about buying stocks. You need to know how to budget, how to plan for retirement and generally develop good financial habits.

I was fortunate enough to get engaged with Enriched Academy, a Canadian Company started to help educate Canadians in Financial Literacy. While they are not a sponsor of the channel, I really like their platform and use it myself.
