Building wealth is not as difficult as it seems, but it does require patience and discipline. I've been on a wealth-building journey for a couple of years now, but I wish I had started much earlier. So in this video I want to share with you the simple steps to take to start building wealth. Even in. Canada, with sky-high living costs, it is possible, if you set your mind to it!

RRSP is not free money, you're simply deferring your taxes, and it's only worth it if you genuinely want to invest in your retirement. If you withdraw this money before retirement, you could potentially pay even more in taxes because your income will increase by this time. But RRSP matching is a free money for sure.

The rising interest rate can surely control inflation, but won't prevent erosion of the eroding purchasing power of the Canadian dollar. I have learnt my lesson this time. The banks can't be making money off my money, while inflation eats into it. I have set aside 650k to invest in the stock market now, since that keeps up with inflation, but I don't know how to get started.

I found myself a financial advisor/planner and we invested in 100% risk free "Market Link Term Investment" with up to 66% return and a 150% participation rate. If only I have more capital, the rate would be even higher. My financial planner advised how I use my money to invest and maximize return but minimize tax. I suggest you look for an independent financial advisor too but don't look for a bank financial advisor - they only advise what their bank offers. Btw, you don't need to pay the financial advisor. They get paid from the companies where you invest your money in. In my case, there are insurance companies.

What worked well for me is self directed investing and taking advantage of dollar cost averaging. Keep investing on a regular basis regardless of market fluctuations. Then for asset allocation I use the formula: 80% SPY ETF + 10% yolo + 10% crypto. Yolo investments are individual stocks of companies I like. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. For crypto buy BTC, ETH. or any of the more reputable coins with some history like SOL. Just my $0.02. I am not a professional investment advisor.

But the RRSP funds are not liquid and can't be withdrawn easily so while you're saving yourself from getting taxed, the money is not usable
@LivinginCanada
@LivinginCanada Жыл бұрын
You're right in a sense that there are restrictions to withdrawing your RRSP funds. You can withdraw it tax-free only if you use it for certain purposes, e.g. HBP. The assumption is that by the time you withdraw your RRSP funds, e.g. at retirement (or you've reached 'FIRE'), you are in a lower tax bracket, as many retirees (not all of course!) no longer have income. That's why it's important to still have liquid funds elsewhere, non-registered, so you can access it anytime, and also in your TFSA, where the money you put in is already taxed.

Great advice! Thank you. Been doing these except for 1st year in Canada I did not enroll in RRSP matching although it was 1:1 match !!! What a waste. Now I m maximizing all the deductions. Question for you: do you think someone making 53k maximizing their FHSA is worth it, I mean they are in a low tax bracket anyways right? They also have deductions for daycare expenses of around 6k. Or is it putting the 8k in TFSA makes more sense in this case?
@LivinginCanada
@LivinginCanada Жыл бұрын
Thank you! That's awesome! I'd say it's still worth it to put money into your FHSA, even though your tax rate is low, as it's still taxes saved. Personally, if I were to buy a house in very near time, I would prioritize FHSA, because you don't need to pay it back, and there's a maximum you can carry forward ($8,000). 1. But I'd do that subject to already having a sufficient emergency fund, and also 2. I like to still diversify a bit just so that I have some options, so I'd probably still put some (portion depending on how much I need for the home, and how quick I need to save it) in my TFSA/RRSP.

You never know when life might throw you a curveball, and having cash on hand for emergencies like house repairs or car issues is crucial. Being forced to sell investments in those situations wouldn't be ideal. To me, the peace of mind this brings is invaluable.

It might be easier to build wealth in the Asian countries but not there or here in Australia. First the bloody income tax is shocking, if you're single without dependents, you get taxed up to 46%. After paying heavy tax, you have some money left put into your saving account that incurrs interest, and they tax you again, it's like double tax on your every hard earned dollar. They even tax your super fund for retirement. Just any dollar comes into your bank account has to be heavily tax unless you it's cash on hand like those in the prostitution industry. Plus the laws and regulations here is so strict to hinder you from getting rich, unlike in Asian countries where you can always go around the laws to make big bucks. That's why many would rather be on the dole than working hard for nothing.

I got paid US$200 K per year plus they paid for housing, food and air tickets. And I paid 15% tax. basically, the money I earned, I got to pocket almost all of it. I took the money I earned in Asia and was able to pay off student loans and put down a downpayment for a 1 bedroom here in Canada. If I hadn't gone to Asia to work for those two years, I doubt I would be able to do it.

All make sense. If you want nice things, unless you are very lucky to get a very high-paying job or have a wealthy family, you have to make sacrifices. I have lived with my wife for a couple of years in a studio apartment in Sydney, didn't buy a car until I had my first child, and saved the maximum that I could to buy my first property. Now, 14 years later, we have 2 properties with an equity of at least 40% on each one. We are not millionaires, but we are above the average in financial assets for our age. Now is the time for saving again, the interest rates are quite high. Avoid the Credit Card Debts Traps too.

What do you do if you put your 5000$ in and then the value goes lower than 5000$, do you take your money back out? Or move it to a different stock? What the value of what you choose does down instead of up over the years. Then you literally lost money and worth, instead of keeping it in your savings account at a never changing value. It's like everyone knows a secret list of all the signs to indicate when to put your money in, move it around, or take it out, and this gives people incredible anxiety and stuns their ability to make any decision to do anything with it.

I would give one suggestion to the young or new comers: Investing into Canadian banks. If you have a 10000 paycheck per month, make a plan to borrow 10000 every month from Royal Bank( or any other bank) and invest the money into Royal Bank stock. In 10-12 years, you will reach the first one million milestone, in 20 years, your investment income will be higher than your salary. Canada is a capitalism system, you need to learn and understand how to become a capitalist, this strategy is the very basic step to start, of course you can do better if you are smart.

The average paycheck in Canada is 3k. And anyone making 1 million dollar will pay more than half of that to CRA in tax! So where is the great plan here? Only the government keeps getting rich ,nothing else.. take from the rich and give to the government is the plan.

When do you recommend to take all your stocks out of the market and put them back into your savings account? How much % do you take out of your stocks if you are scared there will be a stock market crash like 2008 where everyones money just vanished? This is why millennials keep their money in their bank accounts.

@@LivinginCanada as a newcomer to Toronto, its a hard life, whoever is deciding if this is a good place to grow your family, come and see the real hardship for yourself. I was in a corporate management position in Korea and used to travel between Japan, China and Vietnam for work. Here, you need 'Canadian experience' to land a low entry job if it wasn't for my connections. I cannot speak for all of Canada but I already saw too many gullible people ditched their decent jobs back home for a garbage life here. Goodluck, you will need it, a lot.

It was a good video but like not much substance? What are the actual instructions and steps. Break it down into a recipe. Take 5000$ and put it into what? How do you pick which ones to put it in? Are there any that are so low risk that it's like common knowledge and you're dumb if you don't? What ones are the least of a gamble? What do you do after one year? How do you get your dividends? What types of investments should you go with? Who do you go to for financial advice? Should you trust a bank or trust a private accountant? If I were to give you $5,000.00 a month, make a list of exactly what you would do to grow it over 10 years. Make that list, and give me that list as a video. The point of this is to help people so just give them something they can literally just copy and follow as instructions. "I wish I did this earlier". Did WHAT earlier? This is what is frustrating about videos like this. You probably do more damage to people by being so vague and it's dangerous without an exact set of steps from 1 to 100 or whatever.

Absurd. Step 1: become prime minister Step 2: setup shell companies to pay no tax Step 3: get reelected. But kidding aside; wealth is not defined in worthless Canadian dollars which lose value at a current inflation rate of 10% per year. Good luck even with a 1000 side hustles.

I especially liked the very last piece of advice (RSB Matching) Back in Mexico in my job I also had that kind of benefit on which I got to decide how much money to put in my own "savings account" and at the end of the year they would deposit me that years return of investing. Back in my country I invested a lot so I am looking for alternative platforms here in Canada (I know which ETF I used to follow).will try moomo. I know this channel is not for that but would be awesome to see afterwards topics such as personal finance (I personally have an "emergency fund" which is liquid money I can use worth 3 months in case I lose my job/other incomes. Nywsy thanks again and great channel!! I am already in Canada and your videos have been great!
