Here's a highly requested video on ETF/Index Investing for beginners in Canada! Enjoy & thanks for watching! :D

[zamran]

I have to say you are the best in explaining details Easy way. You should be a Economic teacher

[brettm]

You should do a video on all in one ETFS! like XGRO, XBAL VGRO etc

[GenZInvestor]

I am a big believer in index funds! I hold numerous funds to diversify across different markets. I am more than happy to follow the market instead if consistently trying to beat it!

[Liza_Beth]

As a Canadian myself I find it pretty sad that we don't have access to such great information about finance on the internet! So this video was really helpful to me. I wanted to start investing into REITs, especially the Ishares S&P/TSX Capped REIT Index ETF, but now that you have spoken about the MER, I am kinda afraid! Their MER is at 0.61% and the management fees is at 0, 55% which seems to be a little high. This is my first time investing into REIT etf and I don't want to mess up.

Could you do a video on whether it's better to chase monthly dividends vs. quarterly dividends? That would be awesome!

[overagain]

[LoganKohn]

[Moiez]

Bro! Love the use of analogies. I just invested into thr Vanguard and iShare ETFs yesterday! Your videos have helped me a lot, will keep watching.

Hi Brandon for the first time I have understood the ETF and INDEX funds

[Steven-wqtx]

Hi Brandon, I’m pretty new to investing and just need some clarification. So I understand that an advantage of investing in ETFs over mutual funds is that the MER% is typically a lot lower since it is being passively managed. However ETFs also demand brokerage commissions when buying and selling. My question is can it be potentially more costly to invest in a ETF if the MER% + Brokerage commissions >= Mutual fund MER%? Also what variables are factored in when calculating brokerage commissions?

[newnaturel]

OMG this is like investing for dummies!! Thank you for your video!!!

[sc]

[jandresz]

Wow great vid! Im new to investing on questtrade and really learning as much as i can before i start buying stocks and this answered all my questions!!!

[filipinocanadianbrotvchann]

From a beginner investor like most of us, would you please do a content how to best allocate our funds or to build our portfolio, ex. is it better to mix etf and individual stocks and what percentage of fund should be allocated, should we be using. RRSP for etf only, and please include what type of investment is best for rrsp and tfsa.thanks much

[katelynrenesse]
