Final week of 2008 RRSP

This is Jeff Wareham, ScotiaMcLeod Wealth Advisor, with some thoughts for investors outgrowing their mutual funds.

The final week of 2008 RRSP season is upon us. With global markets in turmoil, it may be tempting to resist the year end contribution, but it really does make sense to add to your plan in difficult times. The losses you may have suffered over the past year make it even more important to put money to work, if you want to ensure a secure retirement. You may have lost confidence in your investments, but do not lose sight of the value of investing. Seek a second opinion if you need it, but keep your eye on your long term goal. Do you want to discuss your alternatives? Have you outgrown your mutual funds?
