Wealth Accumulators
Professionals and self-employed business owners looking towards retirement.
- They have been saving throughout their careers, contributing to their Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs), and have accumulated a nest egg of $500k+.
- Now that their children have just about finished university, they are motivated to contribute more to their retirement plan.
- They are willing to assume some of the associated risks of market uncertainty in exchange for greater income potential.
- They are also trying their best to avoid or reduce debt.
- They enjoy entertaining family and friends at home and travelling to the Caribbean for their vacations.
- Most of their savings were through their employer-sponsored plan and investing with a major Canadian bank. They felt that even though they had someone to speak with on the phone or in the branch, it was on a superficial level, and they were not confident in a one-size-fits-all approach. They wanted a long-term trusted advisor who would tailor an investment strategy around their situation and objectives.
- They prefer independent advice that allows them to participate and learn more about various investment options.

Wealth Accumulators
Incorporated business owners who are seeking an exit strategy.
- They are hoping to eventually leave their business to their adult children or sell it.
- They maximize their RRSP and TFSA contributions each year, but most of their retirement savings are invested within their corporation.
- They want tax-effective solutions for the money invested in their corporation and the transfer or sale of the company.
- Risk management is also essential in the case of death or illness.
- They spend a lot of time in their business but have a lot of flexibility to go to the cottage and travel outside of the country.
- The majority of their savings are accumulating in their corporate accounts, and they are now interested in setting up a Personal or Individual Pension Plan. This allows them to create a guaranteed income stream for life along with the taxation and estate benefits that are of tremendous value to them and their family members who are part of the business.
- They appreciate the coordination of their accounting and investing advice into a unified strategy that will allow them to meet their objectives in a tax-efficient manner.

Wealth Preservers
Retirees seeking tax-efficient cash flow and estate planning.
- They want to maintain their lifestyle without compromise and eventually leave an inheritance to their children. They have now converted their RRSPs and LIRAs to RIFs and LIFs and are receiving income from their investments.
- They prefer stable investments and are interested in ways to reduce taxes on investment income while maintaining government benefits.
- They want strategies that will generate tax-efficient income and a tax-effective strategy to leave their estate to their children.
- They are seeking income in a low-rate environment.
- Most of their time is spent with family, grandchildren (and their doctors) in between home and their cottage.
- There is a lot of interest in downsizing to unlock the value of their principal residence and invest. This represents a sizable portion of their assets, along with their accumulated savings in RIFs and LIFs.
- Lifestyle consideration is important as are retirement cash flows, and estate planning strategies.
- My clients want to ensure that each of their children receives their fair share of assets from the estate.
- They also want to know that their grandchildren's education is adequately funded.
