The Real Cost of Not Having a Plan
Most people don't have a financial advisor. They have a bank advisor who sells them products. Here's what that actually costs you:
$11K
avg annual fees on $500K
I Have No Idea What I’m Paying in Fees
The average Canadian mutual fund charges 2.2% per year. On a $500K portfolio, that’s $11,000 annually eating into your retirement every single year.

Can I Actually Retire When I Want To?
You’ve been saving, but you have no idea if it’s enough. No projections, no plan, no confidence. Just hope.

My Bank Advisor Doesn’t Know My Full Picture
They only see what’s at their bank. They can’t optimize your taxes, your corporate structure, or your full retirement picture.

I Keep Putting This Off
Every year you wait costs you money in taxes you didn’t need to pay, returns you missed, and retirement years you could’ve had.

Common Questions
Financial Planning FAQ
How much does a financial advisor cost in London, Ontario?
My fee is based on a percentage of the investments I manage for you — typically much less than the 2.0–2.5% embedded in bank mutual fund fees. There are no upfront planning fees. The financial plan, investment management, tax strategies, and ongoing reviews are all included.
What is the difference between a financial advisor and a financial advisor?
In Canada, the terms are often used interchangeably. A financial advisor typically builds comprehensive plans (retirement, tax, estate), while a financial advisor may focus more on investments. In my practice, I do both — I build detailed financial plans and manage investments, life insurance, and tax strategy as one integrated service.
Do I need a financial advisor if I only have $200,000 in savings?
Yes — in fact, this is often where professional advice adds the most value. Proper tax planning, lower investment fees, and a clear retirement strategy can save you tens of thousands over your lifetime. You don't need a million dollars to benefit from a financial plan.
What services does a financial advisor in London, Ontario provide?
I provide six integrated services: retirement planning, tax planning, investment management, corporate financial planning, life insurance, and estate planning. Everything works together in one plan — no silos, no conflicting advice.
How is an independent financial advisor different from a bank advisor?
A bank advisor is limited to the bank's own products. As an independent financial advisor, I can recommend solutions from the full market based on what's best for you — not what pays me the highest commission. I also build a comprehensive financial plan, not just a product recommendation.
