Q: Greetings:
I missed the September 20-21 virtual ETF show, and was wondering if you could provide any link for a replay of at least the presentation made by MOEZ MAHREZ, and perhaps the whole show.
Thank You,
Ben.

Q: Hi Peter & 5i team,
Many investors consider cryptocurrency highly speculative or even risky. Recently portfolio managers are adding crypto to their holdings. What would be a good way for the retail investor to add a small percentage ( if any) to their portfolio?
Thank you for your opinions.

Q: What do you think of this for an RESP for two kids aged 3 and 5:

30% XSB
10% XIT
60% VEQT

Anything I should consider with this mix? Is it to late to get into XIT where its is already up so much?

Q: I have $10,000 that I would like to put towards some kind of crypto exposure. I'm just not sure how to play it, but I'll bet my trusty friend Peter will know! I'm open to any ideas including buying Bitcoin itself, or a miner, anything really. ETF's are a little boring but maybe with this amount of money that's all I can do? Perhaps split the money into 2 ideas? I'm very comfortable with risk. What would you do and thank you so much for helping with everything.

Q: What do you think of the TD all in one portfolios? They seem to offer some active management that the vanguard and share all in one portfolios do not offer. They allocate a certain portion to technology etc. Are they worth it?

They list the MER at 0.25 but also list a management fee, having a hard time figuring out the total fees.

Torn between doing something like this or creating my own portfolio with 6 ETFs.

Q: Which of HUT, HIVE or GLXY would you recommend for a small speculative position? Or would you suggest a combination of HUT or HIVE plus GLXY assuming no material difference between the two bitcoin miners? Alternatively, is there a crypto ETF that you would suggest instead? Thanks.
