The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada has a number of sections on the site, and one section of the site was devoted to topics that related to [Life Events](http://www.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/Eng/forConsumers/lifeEvents/Pages/home-accueil.aspx) such as: - [Starting your first job](http://www.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/Eng/forConsumers/lifeEvents/firstJob/Pages/home-accueil.aspx) - [Moving out on your own](http://www.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/Eng/forConsumers/lifeEvents/movingOut/Pages/home-accueil.aspx) - [Planning your retirement](http://www.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/Eng/forConsumers/lifeEvents/planningRetirement/Pages/home-accueil.aspx) - [Living in retirement](http://www.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/Eng/forConsumers/lifeEvents/livingRetirement/Pages/home-accueil.aspx) - and a number of other events The section of living in retirement was well laid out and had a number of links to other topics - overall a pretty good resource. now if only my client had a computer................
