RESP Book Winner

The RESP Book

Thanks very much to everyone who read and commented on my recent review of The RESP Book by Mike Holman. As I do for each of these draws, I numbered the comments and had my youngest son pick a number. The person with comment matching that number wins the book.

This time, the winner is Marsha. I’ll be letting her know by email and Mike will send out a copy of the book. For those who didn’t win this time, consider buying the book. If you intend to use RESPs at all, it’s a pretty inexpensive investment.

If you left a comment on the review, you were entered in the draw. I received 8 comments, so I numbered them from first to eighth. I asked my youngest son to pick a number between 1 and 8 to choose the winner. He chose 7, so Simple Savings will receive the book.

With all that’s happening in the global economy at the moment, it should be a pretty interesting weekend. Meetings are being held in Europe to figure out some way to help Greece manage its untenable debt load. It’s a good time to stay up to date with current events, especially if you have money on the line in the markets.

Still, the types of events that are currently transpiring have [...]
