Drake is on his way to making millions thanks to a smart investment and a app called Wealthsimple. Seems like Drake has been watching Nas and Jay-Zs investment game.

Fox (actor), Ryan Reynolds (actor), and Dwight Powell (professional baseball player) are also benefiting from dropping serious investments into the company.

A brokerage that was once only an investment manager and trading app, now offers crypto trading, commission-free stock trading, peer-to-peer cash transfers, and automated investing. Moreover, it services over 2 million different users, mostly average people who just want to learn how to invest in stocks and stuff, who have trusted them with $8.4 billion to trade, manage and protect. In a statement, CEO Mike Katchen said that More than two million Canadians use Wealthsimple to grow their money, file their taxes, pay their friends, and make their financial lives better. This investment will fuel our growth so we can reach millions more and ensure that everyone has access to the simplest, most powerful financial products and services, no matter who they are or where they are in their financial lives.
