SargeX wrote: Very nice summary and excellent points. Interesitng on the $1M all in ENB. I would find that a little too risky to have all my eggs in one basket and would prefer to spread it around. I actually think we have a really "focused" portfolio with all our only 19 holdings being TSX listed stocks/ETFs limited to 5 sectors. We have 16 main holdings (all stocks) and 3 mid-sized, 2 of which are ETFs (FIE, ZWB). Very interesting stuff for sure.

I much prefer to just buy & hold good dividend income/growth TSX listed stocks. Trying to time the market is way too much work for me and I suspect I would get it wrong more than I got it right. As an example. I've been expecting a significant correction for over a year but all the market does it keep going up. So for us, it's keep a little dough for some short term trading (just for fun) and leave the rest in our 16 main TSX listed dividend payers, sit back, and watch the divys roll in. :-) Ciao Sarge investornot wrote: NissimLevy... A very reasonable strategy and one I have seriously considered. What can be gained in dividends can be offset by fluxuations in share price though. If Enbridge was trading @ $40 right now I honestly wouldn't consider selling, but it is at a good profit point and our household's other retirement investments (that I don't have the worries to manage) have been performing consistently well. The proceeds here will add funds to an existing funded retirement plan and will not need to be relied upon is a key factor. That doesn't mean it will be put under the mattress for a rainy day. Money needs to work for you. GLTA Great post Sarge
