Show Notes

Retirement planning is just figuring out how to pay the bills without working. This week we take inspiration from the book “ Pay Cheques and Play Cheques - Retirement income solutions for Canadians” by Tom Hegna, Robert Gawthrop & Steve Tate to figure out how to plan for the retirement we actually want. Learn to save for retirement like you do vacations, plan for enjoyment rather than only basic needs and more.
