Hey! I got a good idea. You want to play Who's the Biggest Man at the Table? Mine goes all the way to Saint Louie! when people start talking about not wanting to live in mixed neighborhoods, I thought we already were down to P&R or something worse What's life have to do with economics anyway?
If you can prove to me you're 100% pure I'll let you in my neighborhood. Well, it's not really a neighborhood, it's more like a dog show.
missed out most of the Capital Gains tax example for Canada: "Currently 50.00% of realized capital gains are taxed in Canada at an individual's tax rate. Some exceptions apply, such as selling one's primary residence which may be exempt from taxation.[2] Capital gains made by investments in a Tax- Free Savings Account (TFSA) are not taxed. For example, if your capital gains (profit) is $100, you are only taxed on $50 at your marginal tax rate. That is, if you were in the top tax bracket, you would be taxed at approximately 43%. A formula for this example using the top tax bracket would be as follows: Capital gain x 50.00% x marginal tax rate = capital gain tax = $100 x 50.00% x 43% = $50 x 43% = $21.50 In this example your capital gains tax on $100 is $21.50, leaving you with $78.50. The formula is the same for capital losses and these can be carried forward indefinitely to offset future years' capital gains; capital losses not used in the current year can also be carried back to the previous three tax years to offset capital gains tax paid in those years." from: 'Capital gains tax' â by country: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_gains_tax

that's entirely up to visa and mastercard, I already blew through my 401k, my IRA, my savings, and the goodwill of my family. My lifestyle is not that extravegant, so I could probably maintain it in a homeless shelter, but I would really miss the private bathroom. Just cleaned it today and it is spotless.
