Have you ever asked yourself the following questions? 

  • Will I be able to retire early? Will I have enough income to live comfortably in my “golden years”?
  • Will I receive CPP and Old Age Pension benefits when I retire? Will my beneficiaries have to sell the assets of my estate to cover the taxes payable? Will my spouse have enough income to live comfortably should I predecease them?
