  1. Disagree with most points here. Simple example is if someone earns $50k, 10% saved is $5k. $5k x 30years is $150,000; 15% wouldn’t be that much more. Assuming 3% net return (after inflation), it’s only $240k. Fine you could argue reinvest the tax refund.? But the millionaire concept?? RRSP doesn’t provide more room than TFSA!!! It depends on income!!! And RESP guarantees 20% in grants – can an RRSP do that? NO, again, it depends on income. And how about mention of the HBP (home buyers plan)?

  2. @playranges123? agreed…it’s not clear how she’s built up her wealth, good for her either way.
