i noticed that i have what i consider a lot of money in my TFSA contribution room, but i have no idea what a tax free savings account even is, or what is meant by contribution room, or how i’ve accumulated that money. am i supposed to do anything with it? is there anything i should know? for context i’m a student in my mid-ish 20s
