Right now all my extra money is being frantically thrown at a loan I took out last year. I figure I'm about 5 months away from killing it off, and once that's done, all the money I was putting on the loan will go into savings. I get $20/cheque automatically transferred from my chequing to my savings account every payday though, it's not much, but it builds up. It also takes a week for me to transfer the money back out, so if I want it, I'd better have a really good reason.
I get 5% of my paycheque put into an RRSP, which my employer matches, once again, it's not a lot, but I've still got about 40 more years in the workforce.
