RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:March madness All of my close friends (most in very successful careers and close to retirement) have absolutely zero understanding of how the TFSA works. Most have not utlized it and if they have it was just another low risk savings vehicle holding GICs and even cash to pull from for vacations and emergencies.
What they miss is that it's the greatest gift our government has given us to save for retirement and should be the first place every Canadian should throw new money into. I just don't understand why our schools are not teaching better fiscal responsibility. Finance is as important as learning to read. Our nation wouldn't be so indebted if finance / investing courses were mandatory.
