Every year millions of Canadians make two retirement preparation mistakes:
1. They pay a lot of money for bad advice and poor investments.
2. They decide to just keep working hard and leave the planning for later.
Don’t just hope that retirement works out for you.
If you’re looking to retire in the next 20 years, it’s important to take control today.

What others have to say
Are you on track to
meet your goals?
Why not learn from a real teacher- at your own speed.
Taking control of your own retirement is the only way to quiet that little voice in the back of your head that’ssaying:
Do I need to work one more year? Two more years?
Can we afford to travel after we retire?
Will my pension be there for me when I need it?
Investing scares me - there’s been so much bad news lately - where should I put my money?
How do I turn my nest-egg into a reliable amount of cash that I can spend each month?
Should I downsize my home to get some financial breathing room?
Would I save more taxes if I knew the ins and outs of the RRSP and TFSA?
Will my investments keep pace with the high inflation I see on the news?
What if I need long-term care in later retirement?
Is there anyone who can really explain this money stuff in a way I can understand?
With so many questions, it’s no wonder that most Canadians procrastinate retirement preparation. To make matters worse, financial salespeople are constantly thinking up new ways to siphon off a chunk of your nest-egg each year.
Four Steps to a Worry Free Retirement isn’t about giving you some top secret investing tip that will magically solve all of your problems.
It’s about gradually mastering each piece of your personal retirement puzzle - so that you can finally feel confident in piecing together your own unique solution. No more depending on salespeople who show pretty graphs and use fancy financial terms - but don’t actually help you understand the overall plan.

FAQ: Your Worry Free Retirement
Because rules for programs like CPP or taxes are always changing, books are already out of date by the time they hit bookshelves. This online course will be continuously updated. An online course also offers many more options for video and interview media - which many people find more accessible than hours of reading. Finally, there is no book out there that comes close to the value of being able to ask questions in our private Facebook and course forum groups.
Four Steps to a Worry-Free Retirement is for Canadian residents and former Canadian residents who wish to retire somewhere else. The tax rates, types of account, and examples provided, are all unique to a Canadian audience.
Most Definitely! Everyone chooses their own version of retirement and the sooner that you start planning the easier it will be to get the most out of your plan. While it’s never too late to start planning, the more beneficial it will be to your future you!
Yes! While it would have been ideal to go through the Worry-Free Retirement online course a decade or so ago - the next best time is today! Folks who have already started retirement might have CPP or OAS decisions left to make. The section on how to best use your housing equity alone is probably worth the price of admission for Canadians who have already been retired for a while.
Absolutely. You know how there is kind of a stereotype that if you get your car fixed and the mechanic picks up right away that you don’t know much about cars - then you might be getting taken for a bit of “ride” on your final bill? Well… are you sure you understand everything you’re being told by a financial salesperson? If you follow the action steps in this course you will quickly find that you no longer need to pay thousands of dollars each year for financial help. If you still want an advisor, that’s ok, but at least now you'll understand what they’re saying, and have a better grasp on if they’re really providing any value to you.

Hundreds of Canadians are Enjoying a Worry-Free Retirement...
“I never realized how much I was paying in mutual funds fees before taking Kyle’s course. I’m embarrassed to admit that it was over $22,000 every single year - all for mutual funds that had mediocre investment results and a once-per-year meeting that didn’t really answer any of my questions. Never again! Low-fee DIY investments forever!”
Parvinder Singh
Consultant, British Columbia
“I wish I would’ve had this course in high school. Kyle is that teacher that maybe cares a little too much - but that’s a good thing when he’s helping you plan a retirement budget! I appreciated the workbook that I could print off and fill out as I was listening or reading. Now I actually have a physical plan that I can hold and move forward with. Plus - updated information I can come back to whenever I want.”
Grant Gillis
Doctor, Ontario
“I was always wondering how the Canadian pension plans worked and if they’d still be around for me. Now I know exactly how much money I’ll get from CPP and OAS when I retire and how to work that into my overall plan. That alone was worth more than I paid for the course, and it doesn’t even get into the best parts!”
Yan Chow
Project Manager, Alberta
“Kyle - where were you when I was in school??!! This stuff used to
intimidate me, but it’s pretty simple when you break it down into smaller
bites. 5 Stars? 10 Stars? All the Stars!!”
Carly Morris
Architect, British Columbia
I had done a fair bit of research before taking this course, but the sheer volume of information I was coming across was stress inducing to say the least! I just couldn’t put all the financial puzzle pieces put together in an efficient way. I also did not know which pieces were missing! The 4 Steps to a Worry Free Retirement course allowed me to put these pieces together in a logical manner, knowing that I was making decisions based on having all of the information I needed – decisions that were based on my individual situation. I really appreciated the way impartial tradeoffs that were presented (“all sides of the argument”) so that I can make decisions based on my specific situation. If you are on the fence about taking this course, I can only say the savings and strategies presented have incredible value - and they’re lifetime access! The confidence gained is worth every penny!
