no TFSA?

About Me
- The Canadian Money Reviewer
- Ottawa, Canada
- "Keeping you informed about personal finance in Canada": that's my goal! I've been reading books and experimenting on personal finance for years. I've decided it was time to share what I've learned. I also hope to learn a lot from my readers! I'm from Ottawa and I'm a software engineer who really likes everything financial :-) I really hope to help other people get to a decent retirement and avoid the financial traps that lurk here and there.
