You have probably heard that raising a child from birth to adulthood can cost a few hundred thousand dollars. Given the rising cost of education, what are some places where you can cut back without depriving yourself or your children? How can you improve children's financial literacy early on and help them establish good money habits? What is the difference between individual, family, and group RESPs? How are the Quebec Parental Insurance Plan and the Canada Child Benefit calculated? This workshop will tackle these and other related topics based on some of the latest available data from development psychology, behavioural economics, and finance.
