Quote from anothergoy:

you go out and get better government

Well, i had in mind something more along the lines of [A] [C] or [D] but thanks for your suggestion

Peace:)
 
well im only 22 and i'll probably get made fun of but whatever.
i am incorporated more for tax reasons now then for the future but i can do RRSPs through the corporate account and most likely will go that route, also in canada they have a non taxable (no capital gains tax) on a "savings account" except you can do anything in the account: stocks bonds mutual funds etc. im going to maximize that every year, its like an rrsp except you dont get whacked when you take it out at the end. only catch is its only 5k/yr but whatever 30 years from now 5000X30 = 150k+ gains which is a decent nest egg.
