Take another look, or one look at Peyto, before confusing yourself with it's similarity to traditional royalty trusts.

The wells drilled by this firm are in a region where wells drilled in the late seventies and early eighties are still producing steadily. Decline rates are actually flattening over this period. When the well is dry? When is that.

I believe you are thinking of a generic O+G trust with high payout and potential lack of ability to replenish resources without cutting distributions. That does happen.

Some people think they know what they are talking about, generically speaking.

But that's ok with me. The ignorance of the very long term value here is unknown to most. Good thing actually.

Still no response on mortgage suggestions so I give up here.
Good luck with US investments, equities, bonds and real estate.

The Canadian trusts are doing pretty well at continually adding new producing properties. What you describe is more like many of those in the United States. For example, I think those who buy BPT --Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust-- are overpaying because its assets are simply wasting.

I cannot be responsible for anyone who confuses a royalty trust with a bond. Anyone who is that ignorant ought not to be investing in anything.
