When Can I Retire?Planning Your Financial Life After WorkRetirement is one of the most critical financial and personal decisions you can make. After all, leaving a career or a business that has defined your life and moving on to the next phase is intrinsically risky. Timing is an issue in such questions as when to access registered savings, when to apply for Canada or Quebec Pension Plan benefits, and even how to make the most of Old Age Security. When Can I Retire? shows how retirees can obtain income and other benefits. Today, retirement is indeed an opportunity to live well. Old Age Security, the Canada and Quebec Pension Plans, numerous corporate pension systems, Registered Retirement Savings Plans, the new Tax-Free Savings Accounts, tax-efficient investments, and many forms of annuities allow people planning their lives after work to build future wealth. When Can I Retire? offers you a compass through the maze of alternatives, provides worksheets to estimate retirement budgets and income flow, discusses the tax consequences of particular choices, and even shows how you can live with a Canadian pension in Mexico, Israel, Panama, and other foreign countries. When Can I Retire? is a useful planning guide for making informed choices at a decisive point in your life.
When Can I Retire? is on the National Post's bestseller list! |
