Show Notes

In this episode, we start by talking about Berkshire Hathaway's record cash holdings which have now reached 277B. 

Simon then goes over the mechanics of RRIFs and LIFs, offering a detailed breakdown of how these retirement income funds work. He also shares learnings following the conversion of his parent’s investments to RIFs and LIFs.

We also revisit a Canadian small-cap company, MDA, which Braden had previously flagged as one to watch and why it's still on his radar. 

Finally, we'll discuss Bitcoin’s recent volatility, examining how the unwinding of the Yen Carry Trade has impacted the market..
