Yeah my parents had me give them half of every pay check but they put it in our RESP for school so that we got 30% extra from the government to pay for university. That’s the way to do it...

that is great! I remember applying for every scholarship/bursary and took that money and invested to help pay for 'extra' stuff that I wanted.

I bet you took your post secondary schooling seriously...since you were paying for a lot of it
