It’s time to talk about the elephant in the room. Let’s talk retirement.

The largest generation—the baby boomers—is set to retire in the next 15 years. In fact, it’s the largest group to ever retire in Canada’s history! And yet, the vast majority have not planned for what comes after age 65.

 

1. Life expectancy was 64 in 1941

Old Age Security pensions were only payable at age 65. So, the government expected you to die before you could even draw a single payment for your retirement.

2. Understand your tax liabilities

Consumer tax index has increased well over 2,200% since 1961, far outpacing the cost of living like food, clothes, and even the average income. The average Canadian only takes home less than half of what they earn.

3. Retirement priorities

It all starts with a written plan, but do you know which strategies are the best to retire by design? Almost half of Canadians outlive their retirement and continue working beyond age 66.

Tax planning strategies

Do you know what tax strategies you can apply to your retirement plan? Though you can’t apply them all, Shawn highlights a few that could be beneficial to you.

 

✓  Minimize dividends

✓  Severance payment spread

✓  Optimize TFSAs

✓  Corportate tax funds
