    I was this guy and I was sweating it too. I actually ended up retiring at 61. I would say when it comes down to it most people have a hard time walking away from what they've been doing for the last 40 years and I did too. Over those 6 years from 55 to 61 when I retired, I kept on contributing to my RRSP and my savings also continued to grow so that only improved things. My wife and I retired at the same time (we are the same age) and pushed off our CPP & OAS to age 70. A little over 9 years in and life couldn't be better. He will be fine.

      I was almost downsized out of my job at 56 but I didn't feel ready and took another position within the company. Personally I felt that if I had stopped work at 56 we would have had to sell our house to downsize and my wife would have needed to continue working. But that didn't happen so who knows what could have been? Either way we are happy with what we did.

My portfolio has returned over 8% after expenses annually and has grown to over a million dollars. Life is good. With care and planning anyone in a similar situation can comfortably retire today.

    Hi,
    Love your videos. When you do you plans involving couples, you seem to assume they are similar in age. Have you ever done a video about things to avoid/look out for when couples have a larger age difference between them? For example, I am 8 years older than my spouse but we want to retire at the same time. I would love to see you walk through a plan like that.
    Keep up the great work.

    Delaying CPP and OAS will require using savings/RRSP's early on to live off and then more so CPP and OAS later on. It all sounds good until one spouse dies. The survivor is entitled to 60% of spouses CPP up to their max, which could be 0 if they are already at max. OAS stops. On top of that, if the deceased had great medical benefits from work, those may disappear as well. That leaves very little to live on if one has used up much of their savings. That rainy day will mostly likely come eventually and relying on gov't payments may not be a wise idea.

    I started investing in real estate in my mid 30’s. Built a nice portfolio of 5 income properties. I knew CPP and OAS would never be enough for retirement.
    I sold my free and clear principle residence and made one of my income property as my principal property. Repeated that for next 2 properties and cashed in till 60. Still have 2 rental income properties, my defined pension and very healthy TFSA accounts.
    Avoided RRSP like the plague. Now I don’t have to worry about RIF, LIF and all the BS that goes with it. Cash is king!
    Didn’t need any financial advisor, just used common sense and living a very comfortable retirement.
    I came as an immigrant with nothing in my pockets, but hard work, good education with a solid career with smart savings and investing did the job.
    If a simpleton like me could do it, so can anyone else. Just need to be disciplined and don’t throw money at useless things.

    If you live to be 90 good for you. Factor in mass inflation of goods and services. Well let me tell you. Your annual or quarterly dividends will not keep pace. RRSP etc are tax deferrals " dont pay now, but pay later on in life when you retire". So many unknown variables by having a 25 year retirement plan. The old saying that schools dont teach you about money is SO TRUE. Banks and government are the ones that tell you RRSP TFSA etc is the way to go. Of course its the way to go as you keep lining the pockets of the elite corporations. DYOR not financial advice, but skepticism

    When you do plans like this and are looking at scenario's of when to take CPP/OAS do you run simulations? Sequence of return risk could be a giant factor here. A bad market sometime within the first 10 years of retirement when they are relying 100% on their nest egg feels like a scary proposition to me. I'm going to need to make this decision as well as I plan to retire at 60 or 61 but possibly delay CPP/OAS to 70.

    • @DoneByD
      @DoneByD 2 місяці тому +3

      In this scenario, the rates of return on investment can be seen in the screen shot at 0:39 second mark. The numbers used were 1% for cash, 3% for fixed income and 7% for equities averaging out to total return of 5% on a 50/50 fixed income/equity split for all investment types (RRSP, TFSA & LIRA). I don't believe snap projections will run things like Monte Carlo simulations but to see impact of various ROR you could run the same scenario changing only the ROI rate to get a better idea on the effect of low ROI rates. Another potential issue you may see is the software uses the same ROI rates throughout the total timeline (no variances so SnapProjections is averaging out the highs and the lows over the years to get to the average 5% ROR).
      Although I'm not sure this is uncommon with any of the big financial planning software programs (Razor, Conquest or Snap Projections) out there as they are not statistical analysis tools. If you wanted this kind of analysis I believe you would have to go to an actuary to do the calculations for you, which might be considerably more expensive than from a financial planner...

    Here's what I'd really like to know because I want to know if my thinking is flawed. If this person invested their $800K into something stable, like the preferred shares of a split share fund, they could easily get 8-9% in dividends without depleting their capital. At 8% that's over $5,000 a month in dividends. FFN preferreds for example pay 9.35% which would be $6233 a month.
    Why is the way of thinking always about building up this huge amount of money and then drawing it down until we're dead instead of using our money to continue to pay us a salary through dividends for the rest of our lives?

      @@AMG-BENZ-1 In Life there is something called "Opportunity Cost'. Most people don't make decisions through this lens. When you buy a home, Yes you are very happy, raise a family, own something over the long term. However, there is an opportunity cost involved. I bet any real estate agent will not talk about. Moving Flexibility is limited (no one has a job for 30 years anymore), your taxes/downpayment could be invested in the markets for higher returns (the younger you are the greater the cost of opportunity). Owning home is purely emotional decision. When emotions are involved, everyone is Happy. Even if the opportunity cost is great.
      A young prudent investor will recognize this & allocate significant capital at young age to compounding assets (ie. markets) & buy a home at a later stage once you are comfortable. But reality is, people do the reverse. They get debt at young age & think they can invest later in life or have all net worth tied to thier home. Not prudent in my opinion.
      To each their own...but my general observations. Thank you.
