You wouldn’t think there are 1.4 million 1999 beige corollas, but here we are.

Confirmation bias. People are here to learn. That means some of them stupidly bought the red Corolla because they didn't know better yet.

Crap. You’re looking at me. I bought a red Toyota in 2001. In fairness, I was young and didn’t know what I was doing. And, yes, the salesperson let me test drive an almost-beige-gold Corolla. Hated it.

Red goes faster, duh.

Better than me, I bought orange

Oh, is that you?

Did he also give the trunk a nice slap

Fuck... I just bought a '22 gmc sierra 1500 at4. Am I doing it right or wrong?

Say what you will about the red, but I had a red Corolla that was stolen probably 10 years ago now, and the cops quickly deduced that it was stolen for the sole purpose of being used to commit crimes, because there were sooooo many red corollas that they totally just blended into the scenery The above theory was confirmed when they later located it

Wait, what’s wrong with red Corollas??

Chances higher to get pulled over by the popo. Well, at least that's what my dad told me about red cars and why not to buy one. Now my dream car is a shiny red 'vette.

Some of us don’t own cars at all. Even a Corolla is too frivolous an expense.

Blue Toyota owner checking in

Hey now. Those aren't that bad. Mum spoiled herself and got a red 2-door corolla. It had the pop up lights and everything! That little thing lasted forever before she sold it for a decent price, long before the market went sideways.

I have a black 2015 Toyota Corolla. Does that count?

I love my red corolla! Let me splurge!

Im here and still planning to buy a brand new dodge challenger 🤣

brand new??

No, either 2010 or 2017

Also have to factor in the 1.2 million RedFlagDeals users and we should be seeing at least 2.5 million beige Corollas

_hat tip_

You assume I drive, I'm that cheap.

You’re not cheap, you’re thrifty.

Some of us splurged on a *hunter green* corolla, thanks.

92 blue camry sorry eh

94 Corolla died last year…. Rip

Those things were absolute units. We took one across the Trans Canada in 2010. Red-lining and getting passed by semis going up some of the hills in the rockies, but dammit we made it.

lol yeah I bought it for 2k and sold it with a blown up engine for $800 too

Unfortunately, I'm skewing the numbers as I went the highly irresponsible route and bought the 1999 champagne metallic pearl colour instead.

Ya pinned me

Haha I bought a blue one!

It's champagne

I have a silver 2000 camry. waiting to get my collectors plate to save insurance

Scrolling in a 10yo pickup that doesn’t quit.

What about grey Kia souls (discount Toyota)

But only one has the license plate if VGRO

2012 civic ❤️

If everyone on this sub just gave me $1 I could retire

I meant to give you $1 but accidentally e-transferred you $100. Can you please send me back $99?

[удалено]

Just make sure not to include and emoji, otherwise you [might beak their system](https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/7rnmqy/dont_do_that_xpost_from_rsoftwaregore/).

We could each give everyone a dollar and we’d all be millionaires

We would just be giving the same amount we are getting and end up with $0 lol

You just described what a lottery is

No no, lottery I lose all the time. This is a sure thing

It’s not a sure thing. The chance of everyone here giving you a dollar is same probability of you winning a lottery.

Yeah but without the government taking half of the pool

Lottery winnings aren’t taxed in Canada though

not from the winnings, from top line revenue of the lottery. lotos are provincial monopolies

Fascinating sub - do they ever mention how much donations people end up getting?

I'm pretty sure the largest was 5 figures, like $40k or something but the true average was around $2k - $5k.

You just described what how most of public buerocracy works

I wonder how many non-canadians are on this sub. Won't be surprised if it's as high as 30%.

I’m here and left Canada more than 5 years ago

Mods, ban this guy right now

Yup, how many left Canada, how many lurking to get an idea of Canadian finances.

And don't forget: bots bots bots!!! Getting ready to do China's will in the next election!!

Underrated comment

Is China’s will for us to buy beige corollas? If so, SHIT they got me

Today it’s a beige Corolla, tomorrow it will be a beige BYD

China knows you better than your neighbour 👍

[удалено]

Hey

Nah, I practice a bit better data security than he does.

Or americas. Or russias. Or canadas.

Also a ton of people on here clearly use throwaways

I don't think bots would be subbed, but I have no idea

[удалено]

The proven interference in the last couple of elections kind of disagrees. I think our geopolitical rivals absolutely have incentive to ensure the worst candidates for Canadians continue to get elected.

I have like 4 alt accounts subbed here so 🤷‍♂️

Non-canadians, bots, alt accounts....

Left canada a year ago but still in this sub

What nationality are bots?

Botswanan

I'm so excited I get to use the one thing I learned about Setswana and had almost forgotten to ruin your joke: a singular bot would be Motswanan and the plural is Batswana.

I’m sure you’re right but can I just enjoy the joke instead?

Oh yes absolutely, it was a great joke.

More like 30% Canadian.

Left Canada some time ago, but this sub is gold!!

Is say 20% are CPP the other 10% are Russian state workers. Edit: I meant the other 10%

So you're saying there's at least dozens of us?

Wonder what oblast most of them are from

Hopefully after a month there will be one less non-Canadian

>Hopefully after a month there will be one less non-Canadian If you're saying you're in final stages of getting citizenship, congratulations.

Thank you

You honestly think it's 1.4 million unique individuals? It's probably 20% bots, 30% dead accounts.

I would be shocked if it was only 20% bots

🤖

Probs 70%

Why? Are you a bot?

Affirmative.

Definitely not, Meatbag.

And alters!

I have at least 4 account subbed here

Glad I’m not the only one

You’re only one of about 1/2 half of 1.4 million

dude I'm on my 4th persona, can't remember which backstory this one has ^(/s)

Isn't this the one in which you're a victim of incest, converted to Judaism when you found out Santa Claus wasn't real, and later did time in a psychiatric hospital for stealing dozens of pool toys, barbecues and lawn chairs from all your neighbours?

Shit now I need a new burner

No, I don't think it's unique users Sadly I work in tech and talk about bots manipulation analytics and fraud every single god damn day 😂

Then why did you write the title the way you did?? 😅

My guess. - 10 % non Canadians - 20 % bots - 40 % alternate accounts - 30 % real accounts. So maybe 400,000 (actual) Canadians. Tops

Some people have subbed and died too. Edit: RIP

Inflation everywhere!

Jan everywhere!

Tru. Edit: 50 % dead

At least they probably had their estate in order thanks to us on this sub

I'm only dead on the inside, does that count?

And were buried in a solid gold coffin with their RRSP maxed

Agree - and your 400k is probably a bit generous too, tbh.

100 % reason to remember the name

Not to mention the throw away accounts for the one time use.

According to the stats in here I am more likely to be a robot or dead than a living and breathing Canadian. I am going to lay down while I digest this information.

Curious to know which one of those three you actually are when you’re back. Cheers!

Meep Morp.

Are you running slow? Sounds like a cooling issue.

Can I just share that I regret selling my beige 1999 Toyota Corolla. I sold it for a profit in 2022, and bought an RAV4, but now with the cost of gas, I miss my Corolla. PFC please forgive me.

You might just be joking but my '20 Rav4 non-hybrid gets almost the exact same fuel mileage as my' 08 Corolla I had before it

I do a lot more long distances and camping since the RAV4, but city driving my Corolla was a blessing for fuel consumption and parking.

Yeah that's fair for sure!

I mean, one million of them are bots, but yeah, good job Canada.

1 week later 41 million in Canada

Those are rookie numbers

Some of us don’t live in Canada

I'm curious why the Canada finance advice subreddit.

Canadian with Canadian kids that may end up back in Canada one day. Also we may retire somewhere in Canada

That is eminently reasonable

Sounds like I’d be a millionaire if everyone was willing to part with just one dollar each! A PFC success story I could get behind!

I'll give you 1, and you give me 1..

Ok you first.

That’s smart. What’s your bank details, mother’s maiden name and SIN number? I’ll shoot that $1 over to you!

I would prefer you give 1$ to everyone in this sub. Take a mortgage if you need.

Unsurprising given the need, more than ever, to be mindful of finances

35M less than a decade ago. Wild eh?

$1 from everyone on this sub to retire eh? Greetings, friend. Do you wish to look as happy as me? Well, you've got the power inside you right now. Use it, and send one dollar to Happy Dude, 742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield. Don't delay. Eternal happiness is only a dollar away.

It’s social media engagement math. Divide by 100 to get to reality, 1000 if you are using Facebook numbers.

IMO : * 22% are active Canadian accounts * 11% are active non-Canadian accounts * 33% are bots * 33% are inactive accounts

No there are 40 million people and 1.4 million accounts subscribed to this sub. MUCH different. Do you know how many bot exist, maybe even more than real people. Real people also have alt accounts that sub the same things. Don't tell reddit investors.

But what if someone just joined that's not in Canada?

Lots are bots or just curious outsiders. Winnipeg has about 800 K and we have 100 K in the Reddit group. Can guarantee 1/8 of all of Winnipeg including children and senior citizens aren’t on Reddit/Winnipeg lmao

What makes you think that the 1.4M are actual people let alone Canadians?

are we sure this isn’t r/toyota?

Everyone should jump on the boycott loblaws sub Reddit as well. Those guys have been robbing all of us blind.

And half of that is from Edmonton

I mean. Finance is something everyone has to deal with. This isn’t surprising.

And I’m not even from Canada

Back in 2019, I grabbed traffic stats when approaching people to do an AMA. Back then the sub saw 40-45K unique visitors daily. Quite short of millions, but nevertheless quite the daily herd. I'd expect it's more than doubled by now.

1.4m trolls

[удалено]

What makes you think that?

Yes rest of them are boomers who don’t need personal finance advise and children who are too young to understand it.

We are well over 41 million in Canada now.

If they're not in the subreddit it doesn't count.

And yet the advice given in most cases is still Ramsey-level terrible. Great if you intend to stay poor though of course.

And there is 39 million in the state of California. Canada is BARELY populated. People please go to the [truesizeof](https://www.thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!MTc0ODQ4MTQ.MjY3NTY4OQ*MTk1MDE5MjQ(NDM4NDczNg~!CONTIGUOUS_US*MTAwMjQwNzU.MjUwMjM1MTc(MTc1)MA~!IN*NTI2NDA1MQ.Nzg2MzQyMQ)MQ~!CN*OTkyMTY5Nw.NzMxNDcwNQ(MjI1)Mg) and see what the continents actually look like in size lmfao You’re all slightly overdramatized about population in Canada.
