 I don't know what you're trying to say. All I'm saying is that Tom is assuming he's going to live 20 years in retirement and re-coup all his SS contributions and then he states it as a fact, which is wrong. Nobody knows what's going to happen tomorrow.

Hows your retirement planning going?  Have you saved enough to maintain a comfortable lifestyle?  When do you plan to retire?

I will get back all I put in within 4 years.  How about you?

Well, my situation is just fine and what does that have to do with you saying you're going to live for 20 years and then stating it as a fact? Do you have a crystal ball? Do you realize how dumb you sound?

As usual, you're misunderstanding what I'm trying to say, which really isn't complicated. 

I understand I can drop dead tomorrow.  That doesn't change the plan in any way unless I'm only thinking about myself.

Like CPP we can't get out of it or I would have.  Heck I would have said fuck the wife's public pension cause I can do better myself and proved it.  But we're stuck.

So what are we trying to say? Spit it out.:bc:

Tom is a good spirit.  For someone who is not only OK but justified being shorted over 7 figures to help deal with those who can't help themselves.

No,

GIC's are taxed at the highest tax rate in Canada as they are taxed as pure income, regardless of what investment vehicle they are in.  In an RRSP you accumulate any gains tax free until you decide to flow them out.  At that time they are taxed at your normal marginal income rate, ie there is no tax efficiency.  In a TFSA whatever you make grows tax free.  In an investment account, GIC's are taxed twice what a tax efficient stock or similar would  be.

Wow.  Think about it.  Why would a GIC get a preferential tax treatment?

 

Maybe Barb can chime in.:lol:
