#20. contribute to RRSP

Did I ever. I've had friends who started contributing to their RRSP back when they were still teenagers, and it always made me a bit anxious as to what direction my financial life was taking. Given that I was hovering at the poverty line for a long time meant that I didn't have much of a contribution to make, even if I did have the money laying about.

Well, times change and I've been able to designate cash for the "to be put away" pile, and I've maxed out all of the carry-forward contribution space I've accumulated my whole life. Again, it's relieving more than feeling positive, but getting one's financial self set up is more important than how it makes you feel.
