L is home sick today with cough, low-grade fever, chills and of course this makes her asthma act up. So we're off to the doctor's in a little while to check her chest. She's a horrible patient, she seems to be on her last legs. At least she still has an appetite every now and then.
It's a cold, bright, sunny day. I think I'll bake some chicken legs for today's meal, with mixed vegetables on the side.
This year, the government introduced a new tax free savings account (TFSA) in which every person 18 and over can contribute $5,000 each year. I had sort of promised our insurance agent that we would open it with his company and we've sort of changed our minds and decided to just keep everything with our financial advisor. So now I have to return his call with the bad news. Sheesh. Not that we're ready to open anything with anyone just yet. That would take $10,000.

We opened these accounts, just make sure you know that you can only deposit $5000.00 per account so if you and hubby want one it's $5000.00 each or if you have a joint account it is $5000.00 in total not per person into one joint account. Anything you deposit after that is very in high taxes. And the interest you make off the account is tax free but counts as part of your deposit for next year. We did ours with the bank.
Good Luck in whatever you choose to do.
I hope your sweetie feels better soon. It's always so sad when they're sick, isn't it?
I've not heard of this. Hmmm. Hope everyone starts feeling better soon! :)
Mom, thanks for the info, didn't know that about the joint accounts. Now why is it that everyone I talk to seems to have one already set up?
Japra, you know how it is when your kids are sick, it's worrying.
Oh Paris, the TFSAs are in Canada, not the U.S., sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the good wishes.
