Also, we research RESP investment options. Originally we thought about setting up a RESP account at BMO so that we can ask everyone to put money towards her education instead of buying her gifts. BMO doesn't have a minimum limit like a lot of RESP accounts do. Then grandpa said he was going to give her $100 every month towards her RESP. And we were going to get $100 a month from Universal Child Benefit. With these two regular monthly amounts, we thought we set up a regular RESP contribution for her through our insurance company's RESP programs.
Through this program, they apply for the government matches, invest the money, and match our contributions by 15%. This will be a nice little sum for her to add to our other investments for her for her education when she's older.
