They didn't worry about RRSP's. They had a different strategy. Luckily its paid off for everyone and he takes advice from them.Their unconventional ways don't sit as well as me as I am "a planner". <BR/>I know what is like to "babysit" and I'm not going there again. LOL<BR/>I know I'm wearing off on him because he came up to me the other day and said " I don't think I'm going to do the whole ING Direct thing but I'm ready to do something what the money short term."<BR/><BR/>LIke music to my ears ladies!Dolly Irishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15037998324953825843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649690126624091924.post-12214714852672635932008-04-15T12:36:00.000-07:002008-04-15T12:36:00.000-07:00Um YEAHAnd I'm telling you, you better be damn sur...Um YEAH<BR/><BR/>And I'm telling you, you better be damn sure you're okay to deal with that attitude forever or be ready ot babysit him financially<BR/><BR/>If that kind of thing will drive you nuts, you better make sure you two are on the same page before you two get married<BR/><BR/>Trust me.. I know from experience :(<BR/><BR/>That's why I'm so relieved my BF is more on board than Ex ever was, and he UNDERSTANDS when I get excited about saving money, budgeting and being smart about money.. in fact, he's amazed and appreciative, and you know what? I love not babysitting him or worrying about his money for him<BR/><BR/>So now, I can move forward and see him as a real partner in life because I don't have to babysit him which was what killed my last relationshipFB @ FabulouslyBroke.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12966672580040786485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649690126624091924.post-3495532677667269962008-04-08T17:40:00.000-07:002008-04-08T17:40:00.000-07:00My hubby has no desire to get into it either.
