Thank you very much!

@dealraker would you mind post BRO and Ryan estimates from Wells, much appreciated it!

Several questions were asked in the AGM on how Greg would manage the investment side of the business, I feel most shareholders by now feel very comfortable with Greg's capability on managing the operation side of the business, but seems not certain on the investment side. Also, anyone is surprised by the low percentage of money managed by Ted, 6%?

We switched to WS as well this year to take advantage of the referral bonus and cash back promo, we also like the new credit card with the airport lounge, esim card and travel insurance coverage. I used NBDB before, like the free trading, but it has some down times in the past Recently we also moved our banking from RBC to Scotia to take advantage of the Scotia Bank infinite passport Visa card, with 25 days medical insurance coverage out of country, no exchange fee, and Scene+ points promo for first year. As we are approaching retirement age, we will lose company travel insurance once we retire, we think the WS CC and Scotia CC are 2 good options for us as we plan to do a lot of travel out of country.

Very much appreciated!

@dealraker, would it possible to share Wells Fargo's updated price target the these insurance brokers? Thanks in advance.

Yes, i was able to access the article without subscription after you posted.

I have 50% of my liquid asset in USD, within the 50%, half of that is BRK, it's in non-registered account, and I am not planning to touch it, the majority of the other half is USD currency. I might use norbert's gambit to exchange some to CAD, feel a little uneasy with the heavy weight in USD.

Question for my fellow Canadian investors: How much USD asset do you own as a percentage of your total net worth? Are you worried about USD devaluation against CAD? Do you plan to sell some USD asset and exchange it to CAD?

Any concern the chairman Malcolm Cockwell is the son of Jack Cockwell, current BAM board member? https://brookfield.substack.com/p/selling-assets-to-family

I miss him so much…

we all know how hard it is to call the exact top, it seems like you did it. May I ask what make you identify it in late 2007 rather than earlier, a lot of people would have sold out prior to that time.

There are parking lots outside the building, last year, they charged $10/day, people lined up @3AM in the morning in order to get a good seat.

another round of consumer product price increase might come soon, even though cost of goods might not increase, but companies are all greedy, they want to take this opportunity to make more money, same as retailers, that's why consumers got double hit...at least that's the case in Canada

there are 2 kinds of supporters: one truly believe it has value, the other doesn't feel it has value, but think people can benefit from speculation by "buy low sell high". for the latter, key question is: at what price you are comfortable to buy, and what price you think it should be sold?
