This was me at 20.

25 really bothered me. Something about being a quarter century old. Worse than 30. Body isn't too far gone yet, but I already have weird shit that's probably never getting fixed.

Get on that RRSP! By the time you're 32 you could be like me, with a cool 6k saved!
Real talk: You're getting to the end of the phase in your life when that'll be the case relatively effortlessly. Get ready to be drunk, fat and mean like the rest of us.
the CDN is fucking us hard, the amount of money i'll put in every year will be laughable. #WorkTilYour90YearsOldGeneration

I'm not thirty YET, but with how I feel now I worry about the future. I never took great care of myself, and am overweight (not insanely, but enough to be considered fat and obese.) I don't like it, but I deal with bad depression which comes with terrible fatigue and anxiety that makes me feel like I have the flu all the time. Lots of that is worry about a family member who's the closest person to me and has had health issues/we don't know about.
It's pretty Hellish. I have no energy, and hate myself for not having a job or life. Jealousy sets in, so does envy (which I hate), and the mindset of misery loves company.
I was never that kind of person before the mental illness really set in, depression wise, and I don't like it at all.
That's true. I kind of forgot about them in all the excitement. (My memory also sucks ass.)
Really exciting going forward. This is a team I can get behind, and management I trust so far. No real complaints, outside of getting little for Reims.
At the very least, they're fun to watch and root for (tanknation hoping is hard when it's a team of underdogs).

Definitely true right now, but in theory you're going to hang on to your RRSP long enough to ride out market fluctuations.

For the Tank.
I think i'll be okay if our consolation prize is a good Forward like Tkachuk or something.
bro we're so picking between 12th and 15th... we're going to end up with some Nylander type bust again
I'm trying to get a better handle on my finances, and one of the things I decided to do a few years ago was open up a TFSA. Admittedly, my TFSA almost got cleaned out after I had to make a few payments for school and other things, but I'm back on track with it again.
Now I'm working on insurance. Car insurance is taken care of, just other stuff now. I'm now really starting to look at my future and preparing myself, I guess.
I got a piece of mail from the Social Security Department yesterday explaining how much money I'll get from them when I retire (lol)
Over a year ago I was starting to gain more weight than I liked so I started playing hockey, some exercising and pretty much cut out chips and beer during the week. Lost 20 lbs in 4-5 months and have been able to keep it off. Need to start running again when it gets nice.
fucking car insurance will cost me 750 per year, i'm buying my moms car and she's paying 400
I HAVE NO CLAIMS IN 8 YEARS YOU SCUMBAGS

I hope we lose in all 3 California games.
this is where we are at now according to a Mock Draft.

We missed our Chance with Chabot maybe we can get Dubois
OOF
So much for regular analytics being important to GMs. Well, at least the Dallas GM.
RIP Sportsnet
AND, starting today cable companies are obligated to offer a $25 cable option, per the CRTC, which probably hurts Rogers
AND, the CDN is shit
What a terrible deal they made

Yeah what's that pick & pay stuff about?

You should tuck that money into an RRSP first and hopefully get a refund on your taxes that you then put into your TFSA.
Debt first, put a chunk into RRSP, use the tax you get back, if any, and any other money you can spare into a TFSA.
Well, for you young fucks, enjoy your 20s and try to take care of the old body now. I was never in great shape but I could go on gaming marathons like nothing, get a few hours of slee and get right back up, drink and eat a ton.
Now I'm slightly overweight and prediabetic and like I said before, aches and pains and other shit you never think will happen to you when you're in your 20s.
I also found when I took classss in my mid - late 20s I was also a bit more motivated. Now, I can't be bothered to do shit.
well they HAVE to offer you a basic package at $25, the basic stuff used to be like $40-50 I think...
the big news today is that Bell ordered their employees NOT to offer the deal unless the client asks for it, which is incredibly scummy
Today? I read about that last week...

I need to set up an RDSP, but don't know how to do it. All that shit confuses me.
The financial advisor I spoke to when I set up my TFSA said that it's probably best I keep to just a TFSA at the time, since I didn't really earn a lot of money (par time job, woo!).
Now that I have a full-time job with stable income, I'm looking into details for RRSP.
As far as everything else, I'm in the clear. Credit card can be paid off by the time I get paid next, I make (what I think are) large enough contributions to my TFSA, and it's just the matter of exploring more options for growth.
When you initially posted this issue, I thought this was monthly. Annually, I'm paying over double that amount. God help me.

Did I miss a meme.
Apparently Benning called all 8 teams on Vrbata's list and none of them wanted him. Too bad he wasn't traded in the offseason.

you're insane. Or rich, or both. Video games cost a lot of money, food cost a lot of money, everything cost a lot of money
I don't wanna take credits off him but I did mine, I shamelessly stole his concept tho

So i'm playing Pokemon Y... i don't remember it being this easy lol. I can't wait to buy Pokemon Red and Sun/Moon when I get the chance

I can live, but by no means am I rich. I don't sell cars or have my parents give me money.
But for real, that's what the insurance company quoted me at, and I just ran with it.
There's always baseball.

The campaigns in the Pokemon games are almost always easy so long as you level up early on. I usually spend a good amount of time over levelling.
The after campaign stuff is difficult, though. The Elite 4 stuff is too involved for me.
you gotta turn off exp share if you want anything resembling a challenge
it is of huge interest to nearly every canadian team! if oilers accidentally win, there may be hope!
