À propos de cet audio

 Even in retirement, small expenses can quietly drain your income — until you take a closer look. In this episode, Joe Curry shares how a simple personal cashflow audit saved him over $2,000 a year and outlines practical steps retirees can use to find — and fix — their own hidden money leaks. Perfect for Canadians focused on tax-efficient retirement income planning and smarter spending. Key Takeaways Small leaks sink big ships — even in retirement. Performing a personal cashflow audit can uncover significant amounts in annual savings. Subscriptions add up fast. Many retirees pay for apps, streaming services, or memberships they've forgotten about. Canceling unused ones can free up hundreds of dollars a year. Your needs change in retirement — your insurance should too. Review life, home, and auto coverage regularly to make sure you're not overpaying for outdated protection. Tax inefficiency is an invisible leak. Pulling income from the wrong accounts or missing opportunities like CPP deferral can quietly cost thousands in unnecessary taxes. Question your habits. Routines you've "always done" — from premium cell plans to cable TV — may not serve your retirement lifestyle anymore.
