You will pay a very heavy price in icky.
Only if he/she has a lot of pie.
Can't wait for those old **** to kick the bucket. By 2025 i bet the economy will be in full boom once all that stagnant monies starts moving again.
A classic example of how statistics don't tell the real story.
If not, just make sure they like to bake and cook.
Well, I want my share. It is a real struggle to get by on CPP and OAS. I know very few who are wealthy or who are not struggling to get by.
I was 33 in 1980 when I was run over by a logging truck. Did I choose to spend the rest of my life racked in pain? Do you think it is fun to live with severe brain trauma? Do you think it was fun not being able to sleep for more than an hour at a time for years? Even now I can't sleep for more than 4 hours at a time. Where was I going to get extra money to invest in RRSPs? Walk in someone else's shoes before you go blowing smoke out yer a$$ at them.So why didn't you put money into RRSPs while you were working like the rest of us? Can't be a freeloader all your life.
Don't be silly. The stats prove you wrong. The grown up thing to do is admit you erred.

The biggest difference is the younger generations want everything right now.
They buy into credit without figuring out how much it really costs. Credit cards
and easy loans ending in the endless cycle of payday loans. Inflation is the
cause all that borrowed money circulating without being earned yet.
When I was a kid we had real money yes a pop cost ten cents but a dime was
worth a dime sort of thing.
Not blaming younger folks either, but the people who hold the keys to the food
locker are responsible.
... and the banksters.You've hit the nail on the head, Grumpy. I just wish these friggin' criminals who run these pay day loan joints were charged and locked up - throw them in a bunker with the drug pushers!
... and the banksters.
LolzErred about what? - W.T.F. would you know about "grown up"?
Actually Ton, listening to the modern day experts, those graphs don't tell the complete story. For younger people overweight and obese aren't good things, but I've been told the important thing for us old codgers is being in good physical condition cardio vascular wise more so than B.M.I. In simple terms an extra 20 lbs. is good in case you do become seriously ill.

I'm sure you can provide a link showing which experts are saying being 20 lbs overweight is a good thing.

My family doctor, there hare brain!
Losing 5 to 10 percent of your weight may lower your chances of developing heart disease. If you weigh 200 pounds, this means losing as little as 10 pounds. Weight loss may improve blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and blood flow.
Perhaps I was wrong

I might consider seeing a different doctor if I were you JLM
BMI isn't everything. Body type is important as well. Also depends on how much is muscle and how much is fat.
Pie.Yeah, the article kinda paints the issue with a broad brush. Besides, how do you define wealth?
When you have a lot of pie.At what point are you considered "wealthy".
