I am officially debt free - yay! Admittedly have gone on a bit of a spending spree to celebrate including a trip to Mexico near the end of this year and a big-screen television, but you only become debt-free once! TD Waterhouse is a colossal PITA to set up pre-authorized withdrawals with, but my plan is to start putting in $600 every 2 weeks and then keep adding more as I'm able. Once I get back to my usual frugal ways I should be able to continue to move forward with the retirement portfolio. The next goal is to max out the RRSP before tax time next year - I have around $14K of contribution room remaining. I have about $16.2K to go to meet my networth target for the end of this year... I may not reach it in the end, but I'm definitely not going to lose sleep over it. |
