Episode 1: Investing in TFSA vs RRSP vs Corporation
Most physicians in Ontario are incorporated, which means they have more options available to save for their retirement. They can put their retirement savings in their corporation, in their Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), or in their Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA).
In this debut episode of The Financial Checkup, Dr. Paul Healey, cofounder of the Physician Financial Independence online community and a member of the Advantages Retirement Plan™ Investment Committee, shares his insights on what physicians may consider when planning and saving for retirement.
