Good morning. As I work as a customer care ambassador for Air Miles, I will for sure be sharing the newsletter with my colleagues and on my social media channels. If sharing this helps one person, that's enough for me.

Might as well throw in an entry for the 7 things worth knowing today too.

Saving for a mortgage down payment with the increased cost of living we are facing is even more daunting. With the price of homes having skyrocketed (coming down a little but will still remain higher than prepandemic levels), Canada's rent-to-own home program funding may provide renters with the opportunity to rent to own their first homes.

Good morning. This was an interesting and entertaining read to start the morning. Bill describes “a really fun, 10-day vacation to Italy in 2015” that was “utterly amazing,” and that could have turned out even better. Unfortunately, Bill, as a 65 year old retiree who is also on disability, I will not be heading to Italy in the foreseeable future, so I'm afraid my sympathies for the day will have to go to some other worthwhile cause. Sorry.

Thought for the day, “be the reason that someone smiles today!” Have a good day, everyone.
