CPP


Yes, I'm that old!!

Don't ask me how that happened!😮

   It took forever online. And took me forever to decide whether or not to take it early. I spent alot of time at work today figuring all the figures. I calculated based on my passing at mom's age. All in all it only amounted to a difference of less than $100 month over the 17 years. If you add it up that's alot but only if you live that long, I figure I may as well take a chance and spend it while I'm still feeling good and able to enjoy it. 

   I plan on putting it into an RRSP because of taxes but it would be really nice to save a bit up and do some travelling with it. 60 is a really big number and I've been trying to decide how I can mark it. I went out to see Colin and Trisha in BC when I was 50 and then I had no money and couldn't even afford to pay for extras for us while I was there :(
