Avoid Throwing $90K Down The Drain In This Canadian Passive Income Trap

Are you unknowingly giving away tens of thousands of dollars in taxes each year by being too conservative with your passive income and business earnings?
For many business owners, keeping retained earnings safe and secure is a top priority, but this cautious approach can often come with a hidden cost-unnecessarily high tax payments. If you’re like many Canadians, you might be trying to save wisely, opting for conservative investments like GICs, only to see nearly half of your hard-earned gains going straight to taxes.
