ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Could your Canadian retirement income actually buy you a better retirement outside Canada?
Millions of Canadians spend their working lives assuming they’ll collect CPP, possibly OAS, use their savings and retire right here at home.
But what happens when you compare the cost of housing, groceries, utilities, transportation and everyday life in Canada with retirement destinations abroad?
In this episode of Tap the Maple, we put Canadian retirement under the microscope.
How far could your Canadian pension income go somewhere else? What could the same monthly retirement budget buy you abroad? And has Canada become so expensive that some retirees may have to consider leaving the country simply to make their retirement dollars stretch further?
We compare hypothetical retirement budgets and ask a question more Canadians approaching retirement may soon be forced to confront:
Is Canada still an affordable place to grow old?
And perhaps the more uncomfortable question:
Is your own country financially pushing you toward the exit?
If you're approaching retirement, already collecting CPP or OAS, or wondering whether you'll ever be able to afford retirement in Canada, this episode is for you.
