Canadians aged 100 or older than there was two decades ago basically more Canadians are getting
older and living longer which poses a significant challenge for retirement funding traditional
retirement savings have relied on withdrawing from a fixed amount of capital with some cash
flow from CPP OAS and fixed income Investments like bonds and gic's however as Canadians live
longer they may expect significant costs down the road such as long-term care at the same
time most of these fixed income Investments are paying at rates below current inflation
levels and what about running out of capital some Canadians are faced with the difficult
and complex choice of delaying retirement or going back to work compromising the retirement
lifestyle dreams or passing on the cost of care to the Next Generation attractive and steady
