    From Alan Bowler@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 5 20:20:41 2022
    The restaurant group I had stock in went private so I got bought
    out for a loss. I used the cash to buy Restaurant Brands QSR
    (Burger King, Popeyes, Tim Hortons). It pays a dividend with a track
    record of increasing it.

    I also added to my long held position in TransAlta (TAC-N, TA-T)
    which does seem to hove finally started raising its dividend.
    ( show a capital loss on Transalta but have collected enough
    dividends to still show a profit.)

    Good on you. I just have some long term holds. EMERA, ET, HTZ, OHI.
    I believe US is going into a recession so am mostly in cash. We have enough money in Schwab to get free advice.
    Will set up a bond ladder in Feb.

    Orange business did well. Distributed $60,000 to us 4 partners just over Thanksgiving when all 4 brothers were together at my house.
    Good long weekend. Us brothers only had about 2 fights. Hard to believe we have such differences. Father was a good referee when he was alive.

    I bet you're happy that the Oranges are back in the green. Are the Lemons you grafted producing yet? Nice that would and your brothers get together.. My brother is all business unless he is drinking. I think the land sales for remote Pot
    Farming is dying.. I assume he has had to foreclose on some parcels. He hasn't told me how many but I suspect it's not pretty. Some of the farmers left the parcels a mess and they will be hard to correct. A few have water but more than '
    several' are dry.. I am glad I stuck to stocks.
