Let's try a thought experiment.
Imagine you stored your clothes in four different closets.
One at home. One at your office. One at your parents' house. And one in a storage locker across town that you visit maybe twice a year.
Would that work? Technically, yes. Would it be super frustrating? You bet.
You'd spend half your life wondering where you put your good jacket. You'd buy duplicates of things you already own because you forgot you had them. And every time you needed to get dressed for something important, you'd have to mentally map out which closet had what.
Now here's the uncomfortable part: that's how a lot of people manage their money.
An RRSP from a job you left in 2015. A TFSA at the bank that you opened because they gave you a free tote bag. An investment account with an advisor you haven't spoken to in three years. Maybe a GIC that auto-renewed last December and you didn't even notice.
Each one made sense at the time. But together? It's chaos pretending to be a system.
And just like the closet situation, you don't realize how counterproductive it is until you need to make a decision. Then you're logging into four different accounts (password reset, password reset, security question you definitely made up and can't remember), trying to figure out what you actually own and whether any of it makes sense anymore.
Consolidation isn't about being tidy. It's about not making your life harder than it needs to be.
