RRSP... need info

I think its time I started saving a little money for the furture now that I'll be 24 soon...

I honeslty have no idea what an RRSP is or how to get/start one. I checked my bank, TD & they have something called RSP.. is it the samething?

I can only put 20.00/month into it, but its a start :D

Any bank can open an RRSP for you. You just need to go in and meet with a personal banker.

An RSP is a registered savings plan. Not the same as a registered retirement savings plan. An RSP won't get you the same tax breaks as an RRSP, but they are useful if you want to save for something besides your retirement.
