“To invest successfully over a lifetime does not require a stratospheric IQ, unusual business insight, or inside information. What’s needed is a sound intellectual framework for decisions and the ability to keep emotions from corroding that framework.”
~ Warren Buffett
Using the right tool for the job
“Sometimes people say to me, “I hate RRSPs.” Honestly, that statement does not make a lot of sense. A Registered Retirement Savings Plan is just a tool to get a job done. It would be like someone saying, “I hate hammers,” or “I hate needle nose pliers.”
Usually when people tell me that they hate RRSPs it’s because they are either not using them correctly, or there is a misunderstanding. Folks, if you smack your thumb with a hammer, it usually is not the hammer’s fault.”
