Agree 100%

The proper thing to do is continue to put money away each week but only park that money within a TFSA or RRSP account. Don't automatically purchase anything immediately with that money.

Hold those weekly savings within those investment vehicles until the investments you want to own have dropped in price.

This does require investors like this couple to do a little more work, choosing numerous investments beforehand and monitoring those investments for good buy times. But it pays off much better down the road.
