Financial Planning

The top 6 financial planning questions that we typically hear:

• How long will my money last so that I will be OK?
• How much can I spend so I won’t run out of money?
• When should I take my government benefits (CPP/QPP and OAS)?
• Which of my assets should I spend first?
• I’m currently saving $X – is this going to be enough?
• How much can I pass on to my children when I die?
