"Don't invest in a retirement plan! It locks up your money, is heavily taxed, and you may not live long enough to see it!"

Thanks for the vote of confidence that I won’t live to 65, mum!

In actuality, I’m going the bank to figure out savings and retirement again. Being 24, better to start now than later. I have a tax free savings account, so my plan is probably to go half and half on that and a registered retirement savings plan. But, maybe the financial advisor will tell me I’m dumb.
