Saskatchewan Pension Plan
Hi there-
I was wondering if anyone belongs to or has any thoughts on the Saskatchewan Pension Plan. I first heard about it in the Toronto Star last week and after looking into it a bit, we considering it for my wife (27 years old). She's a dental hygenist who doesn't receive any pension in her job. We plan on investing more than $2500 this year into RRSPs, but thought that the first $2500 would do well in the SPP. We have long term growth in mind, with medium risk for her money.
I'll get an OMERS pension when I retire (still 26 years to go or so) so it would just be for her, with possible spousal contributions from me as well.
I've seen a few articles on the SPP but not to much conversation in forums. I'm trying to be informed as I can before making any decisions and welcome both positive and negative thoughts on it.
Thanks.
