I began my career with @sobeys in 2000. As part of my first role, I put together this newspaper ad. The "for over 20 years" also served as a prediction for how long that kid on the right would stay with the company.
Now that I've moved on, I'm looking forward to putting more effort into my passion for helping people with their personal finances at @MapleMoneycom, @RetireHappyBlog, and @getrichslowly.

Watching game 4 of the Battle of Alberta with the boys. Created a blue and orange smart light scene in the movie room to rep our @EdmontonOilers!

You're coming everywhere, @tomsegura? FALSE. Why no Calgary? I thought Norman would be enough reason to come! I'm disappointed in you.

When you get snow overnight and have a Baby Yoda pinata carcass lying around from yesterday's birthday party... Baby Snowda!

Thanks, @NYTimesWordplay, for destroying Wordle on your first day. They've claimed to have fixed the streak and distribution not showing up since moving it to their site last night, but it sounds like certain browsers and devices still have issues, including mine.

It would be great to have a list of upcoming mints that are recommended, with the requirements to get in on them. Looking forward to seeing this grow!

I get a lot of shotgun link spam, but I always find it hilarious when I get emails where they obviously haven't vetted their list. This one wants a link from my legal page. 🤦♂️
