Happy to see this community start up here! I was a big fan of the subreddit and the advice that was more often than not very helpful.
Personal Finance Canada
Come and discuss anything related to personal finance, directly or indirectly, with other Canadians!
Welcome :) let's hope this community will be as helpful here!
Hi! Thanks for getting this going, I looked for it a few weeks ago but no one had made a similar community yet (eg. nothing like r/PersonalFinanceCanada nor r/CanadianInvestor). So for my ETF question I created [email protected] to have at least a placeholder for people wondering where to post such content here but did approximately zero to promote it or populate it with content which worked out like you'd expect. I didn't even pick a funny image for the sidebar.
So I wonder if I should just close that rather than fragment what might be a fairly limited community? Or is it worth having separate subs as they are different yet related topics---at least on Reddit I preferred to subscribe to the investing one as that was my primary interest and PFC is quite a high traffic sub with a lot of questions not relevant to my lifestyle (eg. I have no car, real estate, insurance, children and no specific plans to acquire them).
Welcome :) Personally, I don't see any problem in having a community about personal finance in general and one about investments in particular, so I don't see any reason in keeping only one of the two, and things may evolve differently depending on the growth of the community. I've subscribed to [email protected] to stay up to date !
I'm singed up at lemmy world, but can't seem to subscribe here? Searching for the text provided doesn't seem to do anything.
Hi and welcome :) There are already a few subscribers from lemmy world here, so you should be able to go to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] and then click subscribe in the right column.
Perfect that worked!
