This is why I do what I do. This is why I work with WFG and nowhere else. #NoFamilyLeftBehind #IAmWFG

With the housing market on fire and everyone buying/selling up a storm, I thought I would share some information about the main differences between the mortgage insurance offered to you when finalizing your mortgage vs having your own private life insurance coverage. Know the difference so you can make the choice that best suits you and your family!

Wow! The list keeps growing! 3 more days!

You’re not really financially independent unless you’ve protected against loss of income and secured your family’s assets. Life insurance comes with options that help you keep what you need now while protecting your loved ones later. #FinancialLiteracyMonth #WFGFLM2020

Clearing up financial blemishes caused by debt is the first step to financial independence. More than half of Canadians (58%) pay their credit card balance in full each month, avoiding credit card debt and interest payments. #FinancialLiteracyMonth #WFGFLM2020

Had an excellent meeting with my contacts at BMO this afternoon about their mortgage offerings. They have a lot of measures in place to ensure fast, and excellent service - which is needed in markets like these! Reach out when you're looking for your new mortgage, or refinancing!

What’s one of the things you need to have real financial independence? Positive cash flow! That means you’re spending less than you earn and have cash left over that can be used to pay down debt faster or put toward your goals and dreams. #FinancialLiteracyMonth #WFGFLM2020

I was inspired to join the Movember cause by a great friend of mine, Daniel Georges. I will personally be donating 10% of my commissions earned, and $10 for every referral I am sent who I get to share information with. My goal is to personally donate $1000 and apply to have it matched through the WFG Charitable Trust. Want to donate to the cause or join our team? Click here: https://movember.com/t/mo-factory?mc=1

Dedicating the month of November to a great cause! Sharing a video shortly on what I'm aiming for, and how you can help me get there!

There is a lot to consider and too much we are assuming will fall into place in our retirement years. Having a plan in place will help put everything into perspective well in advance.

All I want for the holidays is to know that your family is properly protected and financially sound. I still have some availability around the holidays so you can still give yourself the greatest gift: knowing that your family is taken care of!

This is a very harsh reality but it's reality nonetheless. There are ways you can protect yourself and your family over the holidays before putting anything into full force in the new year and I can show you how. There is nothing more I would like to see this holiday season than all of my friends, family, clients, and anyone else they would like to protect go into the holiday season with peace of mind that their family will be ok should something happen.... Who would you want to make sure is protected in time for the holidays?

I'll be at Penny Lane Farm Sanctuary tomorrow for their Indoor Holiday Market, sharing information on Socially Responsible Investments! Come check out the amazing work that they do and the other amazing vendors!

Even the smallest of changes can make the largest impacts; make sure you are properly protected!
