    Thinking about turning your current home into a rental when upgrading to a new one? Before you commit, how do you know if it’s a smart financial move or a costly mistake?

    Many homeowners face this dilemma when moving—do you sell your home and reinvest, or hold onto it as a rental property to build long-term wealth? In today’s episode, we break down a real listener’s Canadian financial crossroads: a dual-income couple with a low-interest mortgage and a growing family debating whether to keep their current home as a rental property. The challenge? Balancing cash flow, investment returns, and financial security while avoiding potential pitfalls as first-time landlords.

    With rising interest rates, equity access considerations, and rental income projections, making the right choice isn’t always straightforward. We explore the key factors every homeowner should consider, from mortgage refinancing to the hidden costs of rental ownership, so you can confidently decide if keeping your home as an investment is the right move for you.

    By tuning in, you’ll learn:

    • How to assess whether your current home makes sense as a rental property.
    • The risks and responsibilities of becoming a first-time landlord.
    • Alternative Canadian investment strategies that might provide better returns than holding onto your existing home.

    Don’t make a costly Canadian real estate mistake—hit play now to uncover the best strategy for your financial future!

    Many Canadian business owners struggle to maximize their retained earnings without triggering unnecessary taxes. Traditional investment strategies can expose you to high tax rates, limiting the growth of your wealth.

Whether you’re looking to enhance liquidity, reduce taxable income, or create a tax-efficient legacy, this strategy could be the missing piece in your financial plan.

    What you’ll learn:

    • Discover how to use retained earnings to invest while maintaining liquidity and minimizing taxes.
    • Learn how corporate-owned life insurance can be leveraged to create tax-deductible interest.
    • Understand how to build wealth efficiently while ensuring a tax-free payout to beneficiaries.

    Are traditional Canadian retirement planning strategies (RRSP, TFSA, RIF, ect) setting you up for success—or failure? What if the research shows that strategy isn’t enough—and that a smarter, more resilient asset mix could ensure a stable, worry-free retirement?

    Many investors rely on the classic stock-and-bond investment portfolio, believing it's the safest way to ensure a stable retirement. However, market volatility, inflation, and economic downturns can leave even the most disciplined savers vulnerable. When the market crashes, emotions take over, and many investors make costly mistakes—selling low, hesitating to buy, or failing to adapt to changing financial conditions.

    But what if you could create a Canadian retirement plan that minimizes risk while optimizing returns? This episode explores Ernst & Young’s research on integrating insurance products into retirement planning and why the traditional "buy term and invest the rest" strategy may not be the most effective path to financial security.

    You’ll learn:

    • Discover why permanent life insurance can act as a volatility buffer, protecting your investments from market downturns.
    • Learn how combining high early cash value whole life insurance with investments can outperform traditional stock-and-bond-only portfolios.
    • Explore strategies to maximize retirement income while preserving a greater financial legacy for your heirs.

    Tune in now to uncover the research-backed strategies that can help you build a more resilient retirement plan—one that stands strong no matter what the markets do.
