[QUOTE=Sylvanfan;2456668]For all the flack my generation gets for spending...I really don't know where I can cut my current spending.

I mean I guess I could give up my two dogs and save like $150 a month, but that extra $1800 a year in RRSP savings truely represents so little, it's not worth it for me.

Even 1% extra will make a difference in the long run. I still wouldn't invest with GWL but it is a good site to motivate investing elsewhere if nothing else. You need one of the old school "rule of 72" guys to "pay" you a visit
