Did you know that the secret to making significant RRSP contributions without affecting your budget is to make regular contributions all year long?
In fact, if you have a regular income, contributing to your RRSP by regular instalments (e.g.: weekly or monthly) is THE most effective, flexible way to build your portfolio. Your investment starts bearing fruit from the first day, and your earnings accumulate more rapidly than if you only contributed once a year.
$5,000 contributed at the end of each year |
$431,874 |
|---|---|
$5,000 contributed in 12 equal instalments each year |
$447,291 |
Assuming a growth rate of 6.5% over a period of 30 years, making monthly RRSP contributions would earn you $15,417 more than a single, year-end contribution.
