In all parts of life, there are things that we can control and there are things that we can not, and financial planning is no different.

                                    <description><![CDATA[The new retirement season is beginning.  What’s that you say?  Don’t I know that retirement season is the first two months of the year, when investors can make contributions to their RRSP accounts and still claim the tax deduction for the preceding year?  I am well aware of the end-of-February deadline for RRSP contributions but it doesn’t have to be that way.  Planning for retirement should not be a one-time occurrence -  it should be a continuous process throughout the year.  This is not a new idea but it is an idea that needs to gain traction in the minds of advisors and investors.  
There are two very good reasons.
