Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I recently read this in a publication "The percentage of people over 65 continues to increase each year. According to a University of Ottawa report, by 2021 - just seven years from now - there will be 6.9 million Canadians age 65 or older. They will represent 17.8% of the total population." Where can we invest our money to capitalize on this demographic trend? Thank-you.

Q: I like Ryan Modesto's recommendation to invest in tobacco companies as a play on medical marijuana. Any in particular? Spread it out over PM, RAI, MO, LO? Others? Maybe the individual investor can build a small "etf" by adding one or two risky companies? Recent inheritances put $100k U.S. in the bank, and I could reasonably dedicate it to this sector, even though I don't need the income from the tobacco dividends. Thank you.
