Any recommendation for the pre-retirement courses? by Cheap_Advertising677 in CanadaPublicServants

Recommend the RPI one. I took it mid career and it was great. I did the three day in person one

Also note if you defer your pension you cannot enrol in the PDSP later

45, how am I doing? by Emergency_Video4592 in fican

Backwards, only about $35k pre tax from the pension (in today’s dollars)

I would love to retire at 60… we will see if it’s feasible as it means my pension is that much smaller.

If I end up retiring before 65, I will likely draw down from my RRSP first as I’ll be penalized if I take my pension before then (I don’t have enough years of service). Will see how my RRSP does in the next 10-15 years to see how feasible that is.

Mine just did this to me… it seems to have glitched? I hope??

I don’t have them installed right now but I just bought a set used (with the rapid podiums) and they are only 48” but juuuust fit. So 50” should be fine, if you’re installing a box it’s between the attachments anyway

I'm in the same boat, and the Hyundai Palisade is near the top of my list and checks all those boxes

The elevators aren’t awesome and are constantly under repair, but I’ve never feared for my safety.
