Book a FREE call with me here: https://calendly.com/mdoelman-cgf/doe... The five years before retirement may be the most important planning period of your entire financial life. Because the decisions you make during this short window can affect your retirement income, tax bill, CPP strategy, investment risk, and long-term financial flexibility for decades to come. Yet most Canadians spend surprisingly little time planning this transition. In this video, I walk through a complete five-year retirement blueprint, including the tax strategies, CPP decisions, RRSP planning opportunities, and portfolio adjustments that may help improve retirement outcomes. Here’s what you’ll learn: • Why the traditional 70% income replacement rule often fails retirees • How to build a retirement cash flow projection properly • Why early retirement spending is often higher than expected • The RRSP versus TFSA decision many Canadians overlook • How RRIF withdrawals can create future tax problems • The RRSP meltdown strategy explained • Why CPP timing can dramatically affect lifetime retirement income • How OAS clawbacks impact retirement planning • The hidden danger of sequence of returns risk • The five-step retirement blueprint many Canadians use to prepare for retirement more strategically If you're within five years of retirement, understanding how RRSPs, TFSAs, CPP, OAS, retirement income planning, tax projections, withdrawal strategies, and sequence risk all work together could potentially improve your retirement outcomes significantly. #retirementplanning #canadianretirement #rrsp #tfsa #cpp #oas #financialplanning #wealthmanagement #retirementincome #taxplanning #retirementstrategy #oasclawback #canadianfinance #financialfreedom #retirementadvice #wealthbuilding #retirecanada #investmentplanning #sequencerisk #retirementtaxes
