I'm talking about the Child Care Benefit, the CCTB etc. FREE money, again, how can you 'not have it'? Take that free money and put it into a RESP.

Looking forward to reading the RESP post series; there,s always something one learns or is reminded of.

Obviously the grants are a good deal however there is no point in putting money into an resp if you end up taking it out again because of financial difficulties. The fact is when you have kids you have to be able to provide for them from birth onwards - the financial obligation doesn't start when they go to post secondary school.

I'll mention it about 100 times in the series but I wouldn't put money in an resp if you don't have it - look after the main finances first. Mike Hi FB – thanks.
