We even created a FAQ page which pretty much sums up most of the common questions you would need to know. https://samuelconsultant.com/rdsp-faq/
- Solution: Yes, RDSP is for long-term savings, but if you need to use money today, why will you not need to use money years from now? The key is to allocate your money properly, which fulfill your short-term needs to access the money, while accumulating your long-term investments.
- Solution: Of course, you can, but a regular bank account does not provide you with matching grants. As for RDSP, your contribution could result in 100%, 200% or even 300% of matching grants. If you are not planning to use that money in the short run anyway, directing a proper amount into a RDSP should seriously be taken into consideration.
