some background

My wife and I are both 31, we contribute to RRSPs, containing low cost mutual funds. We're set up financially for retirement; but what fun is that?

So we decided to start a non-registered portfolio that we can actually reap some benefit from before we move to Florida and join a shuffleboard league. We are building a non registered portfolio for our family's future. The Overriding Goal is to Make Money Less Important in our Lives. Not to be cliché, but one might use the word 'FREEDOM'.

I'll document our progress on the moneygardener while taking the stock market, business happenings, and financial life in stride.
