May 2017 Update

Dividend & Family Update

I am happy with what I was able to get done in May both from a financial & personal point of view.

Personal Highlights for May:

• Made it through the first month of having 2 kids at home (somehow)
• Finally got the website up and running
• Opened up the Cabin

Financial Highlights:

• Set up Amber with a TFSA, Direct Investing Account and added her to my bank account
• Opened and started contributing to a spousal RSP
• Filed our Taxes – Expecting to get our refunds within the next 2 weeks which will be used to pay down the line of credit and contribute to Amber’s TFSA.

Now on to the fun stuff.
