I’ve been trying to understand how people make money from selling concert tickets. Folks who’ve done it in the past, what has worked and what hasn’t? Trying to understand the nuances here

Well, a few months ago I sold 4 Taylor Swift tickets and made $3000 each. It was great. First thing, I set up an email with a fake name so I could accept etransfers under an alias. Then, I took some photos of my friend’s tickets and photoshopped some of the details to make the seats better. Then I posted ads on Kijiji and other websites, I sold the tickets, accepted the money through etransfer, terminated the email address and then emailed the buyer the pdf of the doctored tickets. It’s super simple and very lucrative. Best of all, I sold them all six times.

New to Toronto, moved to the west end of town/ just past - in Etobicoke.

Everyone is scattered throughout (Hamilton, Barrie, Lyle, Newmarket, North York). Don’t want anything too fancy but don’t really know where or what is good and not downtown.


Any recommendations? (Open to GTA of course).

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either.

So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?

Making a lot of money relative to the average but feeling poor? Median after-tax income was ~$55,000 in 1981 and was ~$73,000 in 2020. Using a Bank of Canada inflation calculator $55,000 in 1981 is equivalent to ~$165,000 today, which would put someone in the top 10% of earners today. But in 1981 the median family had that extra money. Who can I blame?
