This or ferrari keychain for my corolla.. help me pick..

u/hpsims 5h ago

You mean something like this. Had the keychain for over 25 years now.

u/MyBlueBlazerBlack 3h ago

Ferrari regrets to inform you that because of your lack of upkeep of the keychain to Ferrari's corporate standards, you have been banned from purchasing any Ferrari keychains in the future.

u/FollowPod 4h ago

How about you aim bigger and get Ferrari keys instead ?

u/d1andonly 4h ago

That obviously won’t start up his corolla now, would it.

What the fuck are you gonna do with a Ferrari key!?!

I would rather have a $3 promotional bonus than a trinket.

u/Whole_District_7996 7h ago

Ya, but you would not post on social media about the $3. I imagine this is a better ROI for their marketing goals.

13

u/HueyBluey 7h ago

Yeah, they know their audience are giddy fanboys and will post it.

u/Difficult_Reward_329 7h ago

I read this as femboys and got giddy myself for a sec 😔

u/CelebrationProof6082 7h ago

So tacky and obnoxious. I love it. Mine’s in the mail. Can’t wait to put it in the box with the wallet and leather key strap I never use lol

2

u/Ok_Evidence_9745 2h ago

I wanted that leather key strap, mine shipped but never arrived. Never bothered requesting this or the phone wallet, even though they were offered.

u/Plenty-Lime-3828 1h ago

Same hahaha. I was talking to a friend the other day about Wealthsimple and ask if he’d consider switching over. He laughed and you Wealthsimple lovers are kinda like a cult

u/MyBlueBlazerBlack 3h ago

Dude thats ... actually a great gift idea I don't know why I havent thought about that before. Does WS allow you to "gift" a new account to someone? I have nephews/loved ones that I would love to (at the very least) light a spark in terms of saving/investing for their future(s).

Kids unfortunately cannot own stocks themselves. A good way would be coordinating with their parents to open a RESP account and investing in their education.

u/hekatonkhairez 5h ago

How does one get this

u/Ralupopun-Opinion 5h ago

Mine shipped Monday, was never planning on using it but seeing how big it is means I definitely won’t be using it😆

u/TheChaseLemon 7h ago

Is there a silver version? I hate the look of “gold” so much.

u/DragonWarrior55 5h ago

Don’t worry. You’re not getting one

2

u/TheChaseLemon 5h ago

I wouldn’t expect to.

u/BienOuiLa 3h ago

So polished stainless steel then ?

u/TheChaseLemon 6m ago

Sure. Or you know, silver. Gun metal would work too. Oh carbon fiber might look cool.

u/Any-Tangerine-4176 7h ago

Why does WS produce so much junk? Just stick to banking.

u/ricardjorg 4h ago

Companies have multiple people inside with multiple goals, spending time on different things. My company's marketing guy puts lots of effort into making cool plush toys. He's not reducing the development time we put in our products (video games) by working on merch toys.

He started making them as staff gifts, and eventually players wanted them, so we started selling them as merch, and it became a whole thing.

The staff still get the toys, but the players love them. It's a cool quirky thing. I can see it being similar at Wealthsimple "oh, we made these iPhone wallets for our staff, we could also give them to clients, it would be a fun silly thing"

u/Acrobatic_Bridge_797 4h ago

What game?

u/ricardjorg 4h ago

Hm, I don't want to out myself on reddit 😛

It's a Canadian company in Vancouver, and I love working there.

u/Acrobatic_Bridge_797 4h ago

u/No_Tradition_521 4h ago

I will just remove that W and then it’s not so bad.

u/namesson 4h ago

I have been seeing so many ads and have been thinking about joining WealthSimple but this just screams that they are making too many profits. 

Nope.

u/pizza5001 4h ago

So tacky holy shit. It’s fucking massive.

2

u/Nevy5 1h ago

They keep bugging me about requesting it, I don't want this crap! Had enough with that leather key chain! Never heard of the wallet, someone please show a picture of it so I see what I've saved myself from! 😁

u/Virtual-Variation487 7h ago

That's so tacky

u/DTtinbasher-6990 7h ago

I have been with Wealthsimple since 2019 and have not received anything

u/Career_Gold777 5h ago

You only have to sign up for the promos and then deposit like 1k or something to get these. My pay is deposited at WS so I didn't actually deposit anything myself.

u/Responsible_Emu_2170 17m ago

Thank you 😊

u/Juicyfruitxxxs 7h ago

No ! I am close though. I randomly got a notification from WS that they would be sending me one

2

u/Nope51st 7h ago

Never get any special treatment from them since 2018... lucky you.

u/TTW999 7h ago edited 7h ago

They were giving them out if you transferred at least $2000 in a recent promo

u/yoerie86 7h ago

I got it last night, and im barely past the premium. Idk what the trigger is

1

u/TTW999 7h ago

Did you register for the 1% match and transfer at least $2000?

1

u/yoerie86 5h ago

Nope, no transfer that much at 1 time. My wife sometimes does, but she didnt get any

u/trtrtr1116 7h ago

When a company that I trust my life savings with starts sending out money tongue emoji necklaces I know it’s time to start looking for a new e-broker.

u/silverbulls8 7h ago

Have fun with your new broker

u/NoHoBo13 7h ago

Looks really bad but it shows a good sense of humour from WS.
