Unfortunately, no matter how vigilant you are, there is always the chance that you will be taken in by a telephone scam. While many of us are well-guarded against concerns related to email phishing, there are still opportunities for many to engage in identity theft using your personal information. And, if you aren't careful, you might give a scammer all of that information on your own.

This week was "budget week" for Ontarians. The highlight of the "budget week" was that the federal government will finally stop producing the penny. Although you will be able to use the penny for as long as you want to, The Royal Canadian Mint will stop producing them this fall. I am sure you have read enough about the budgets this week so I won't get into it :) .

Teaching your children about money can be a tricky proposition. After all, the concepts are often abstract, and can sometimes be boring. In order to help your children understand money, it can help to make it fun. One way to do that is to play games based on money with them.
