Many of us have a house (borrowed from the bank) or on the market looking to buy a house. Home-ownership is a Canadian dream. Given how strong the Canadian housing market is right now, many of us are willing to buy over-priced or extravagant houses.

However, trying to live up to this dogma, we often neglect other important tasks that will increase our net worth.
