Planning, Protection and the Right Advice

On this week’s episode of More Than Money, Dave Popowich and Rob Gerrie discuss a recent Benefits Canada article reporting that half of Canadians worry about outliving their retirement savings. How can a proper plan make that uncertainty more manageable?

Then, more Albertans are receiving fraudulent text messages claiming their health cards have expired and need to be replaced. David Shipley, CEO of Beauceron Security, explains how these scams work and how people can protect themselves.

Next, Dave and Rob look at how Canada’s major pension plans build their portfolios around the payments they will need to make years and even decades into the future. What can individual retirees learn from this disciplined approach to investing?

To close the show, they explore what to consider when choosing a financial advisor, including how they plan, communicate, and charge for their services. How can you determine whether an advisor is the right fit for your retirement, or whether it may be time for a change?
