RRSP REMINDER

Quick reminder, we have 2 weeks to add to our RRSP to have it count for 2020 tax year. If you are working and need to top up your RRSP, consider this:

-At income level of $50,000, you will get around a 25% return on your money, in form of tax refund. So for a $10,000 RRSP contribution, you will get around $2,500 tax refund.

-Investments in your RRSP grow tax free.

-That refund is another way to create additional income that you would not otherwise have.

DEADLINE is MARCH 1st, so if you wish to top up your RRSP, please let us know, or use this link to book a quick phone chat with me. BOOK A PHONE CONVERSATION TO TOP UP YOUR RRSP

Tips and an Update to start 2021.

As we begin a new year, it is always good to reflect on the following:

1. Your 2021 money goals

2. Ensure all financial items are addressed and you are moving towards your money objectives

3. To get an update on what to expect economically and from the markets for the year
   

Here is how we are here to assist you in addressing all of the 3 items:

1. We have created a 10 point Financial Health Check Questionnaire (see below to DOWNLOAD ) that you can use to ensure all your money areas are in order. I usually review all those areas with you all during our meetings, but this is a self review tool you can use and if you wish you can share with others.

As I mentioned earlier, we have worked hard in 2020 to add value to you all and your families and to continue to fulfill on our mission, to not only educate but help all of you create and reach your money goal. We are looking forward to a year filled with possibilities of growth and contribution.

Giving Back - Simplicity Financial's Founding Principles

Giving back to our communities, the less fortunate and making a massive positive impact on this world are the founding principles of Simplicity Financial. Through our education work, we aim to empower families to gain control over their financial well being. We have delivered our courses to number of charitable organization such as The Rotary Club and Rosalie Hall and moving forward we stand committed to amplify our empowerment efforts. In 2021 we have the lofty goal to create and deliver education curriculum to marginalized youth through our affiliation with like minded professionals.

Ongoingly, we donate part of our profits to local charities such as Daily Food Bank and have supported World Vision and The Covenant House and stand committed to continue those efforts. Lastly, we as a firm we do take on a select number of pro-bono cases annually. We are looking at expanding this and hoping to be able to set up an ongoing weekly financial advice walk in clinic.

For our clients, we have access to philanthropic solutions. As an example, through our partnership with Mackenzie Financial we can help our client structure a giving a part of their overall financial plan. A simple and convenient solution, the Mackenzie Structured Charitable giving program combines immediate tax benefits with the ability to support your favourite charities now and into the future.
