Four things every plan delivers, no matter which tier you choose.
Get a clear, honest answer to the question that keeps you up at night: can I actually afford to retire, and stay retired, on what I have built?
See how your savings become a steady, reliable paycheque: which account to draw from first, how much, and in what order, year after year.
Keep more of what you saved. The plan finds the tax you can avoid over your whole retirement through smart timing and the right drawdown order.
We pressure-test your plan against a long life and bad markets, so you know it holds up even if things do not go perfectly. Confidence, not guesswork.
Here is exactly what you walk away with. Not a binder you file and forget, but a clear plan you can read at a glance.
The plan is not a binder you file away and forget. It is a clear, visual dashboard that shows the spending you can afford, the income that funds it, and the tax you can keep. Built only for you, and simple enough to understand at a glance.
You own it. It lives in your own private, secure folder, ready to open whenever you want a calm look at where you stand.
See exactly where your retirement paycheque comes from each year, and in what order to draw it, from the day you stop working onward.
Your spending is mapped to the real shape of retirement: more in the active early years, less as you slow down. No flat, unrealistic budget.
The plan shows the tax you can avoid over your whole retirement, not just the current year, by drawing from the right accounts in the right order.
Your plan lands in your own private, secure folder you can open any time. No login to a portal, no app to learn, no clutter.

Plain-English guides on the questions your plan answers.
Most Canadians take CPP at 60 or 65 — and most of them are wrong. A clear, math-grounded guide to the CPP timing decision: why breakeven analysis misleads, how longevity risk should drive the choice, and how the decision pairs with RRSP drawdown and OAS clawback in Ontario retirement planning.
Once retirement income crosses roughly $94,000 in 2026, every additional dollar costs you 15 cents of OAS. A complete, math-grounded guide to the OAS clawback for Ontarians — how it actually works, who gets hit by it, and the planning moves that keep you under the threshold.
At 71, every Canadian RRSP must convert to a RRIF, and the government takes over your withdrawal schedule. A clear, math-grounded guide for Ontario retirees: minimum withdrawal rates, the younger-spouse election, the $2,000 pension income credit, withholding tax, and what happens at death.
You get a complete, written retirement plan built only for you. It shows your year-by-year income picture, the spending you can afford through every stage of retirement, the order to draw from your accounts, the timing of CPP and OAS, and the tax you can avoid over your lifetime. It is delivered as a clear visual dashboard into your own private, secure folder you can open any time. It is a one-time, build-it-once plan, not a subscription.
No. What matters is whether the person across the table actually specializes in turning savings into retirement income, and whether the plan they build holds up under real-world pressure. Marc focuses on one thing: retirement income planning for Ontarians with real money to protect. Every plan models your taxes, your government benefit timing, and your drawdown order, then stress-tests the result against a long life and difficult markets. Judge the work by the clarity of the plan and the dollars it keeps in your pocket, not by initials.
A calculator answers one narrow question with rough averages. The Retirement Plan answers the whole question and is built on your real numbers: your accounts, your spending, your tax situation, your goals. It coordinates retirement income, tax, government benefits, and estate goals into a single coordinated plan, then pressure-tests it. A free tool can tell you roughly where you stand. This tells you exactly what to do, year by year.
It depends on your situation. The Individual plan suits one person turning savings into income. The Household plan adds spousal income splitting and a life-length stress test for couples. The Corporate and Rental plan adds corporate tax planning, salary versus dividend modelling, holding company strategy, sale of business planning, and rental property cashflow for owners and landlords. Each tier inherits everything in the tier above it. On your free assessment we will confirm which one fits and walk through the fee together.
The fee depends on the complexity of your situation, and it is walked through clearly on your free assessment, with no obligation to move forward. There is no pressure and nothing to buy on the call. You leave the assessment with a clear read on where you stand either way.
It is a straightforward conversation about your situation: what you have built, what you want retirement to look like, and where the gaps are. We look at your numbers together so you leave with a clear sense of whether your retirement is on track. If The Retirement Plan is a fit, we walk through what it includes and what it costs. If it is not, you still leave with a clearer picture. No pressure, no pitch.
Yes. The Corporate and Rental tier is built for incorporated owners and landlords. It models salary versus dividends both ways, plans corporate tax across you and your company, optimizes the Capital Dividend Account for tax-free distributions, evaluates a holding company structure, plans a tax-smart sale of the business, and works your rental property cashflow into your retirement income. It coordinates everything inside the corporation with everything in your personal plan, because the two are connected.
