I’ll be glad to offer you some pointers and financially, I do have a thought.
While you’re ticking items off the endless list of things kids need for school these days, make sure that you have a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) to which you’re making regular contributions.
Does this really have to be said after all these years that RESPs were turned into must-have savings vehicles through the introduction of the Canada Education Savings Grant? That’s where the Federal Government annually matches your contributions to an RESP with up to $500 in basic grant money per eligible child, with a lifetime cap of $7,200.
