I always think about this...Started with an RRSP awhile back and have saved up quite a bit so far. The thing is, being 70 let's say and having an RRSP only means something if you actually have pretty good health. What if you're like struggling to get out of bed every day like so many old people. Chronic diseases eating away at you. Man, i don't think i'd want to live like that at all. For me, i've realized it's what i do in my younger days that is more important..If i get to 60 and feel like i accomplished so much and was happy, i don't care if i die. I've been way too responsible i guess so even in the really younger days i knew how to organize myself and all that. Now i don't try so much like in the past.
