I also contribute approximately 4% into a personal RRSP's, so that brings my total up to around 18% which is pretty good I think. But my own investments are split up in a multitude of ways. Some of which is locked into a 5 year GIC, some of it into a very low risk account (1-2% annual interest rate), some into a medium risk mutual fund and some into a high risk mutual fund (this money coming from a kind of expense account which I view as "free money" so if I do lose out in the high risk, it wasn't really my money). But I have absolutely no idea if this is a good strategy or not?!?
Feel free to send me a PM if you want to sit down sometime.
