Canadians are becoming more confident about their retirement, but confidence without caution can lead to risky moves, especially when market conditions are uncertain. At Veracity LD, we know that building long-term retirement success isn’t just about investments, it’s about understanding how emotions influence your financial decisions.
When families combine smart planning with emotional control, they’re better equipped to reach their retirement goals and stay there.
Confidence Is Up, But So Are the Risks
Research shows more Canadians are feeling financially prepared for retirement. That’s a win. But we also see people taking bolder risks:
- Moving money too quickly after market rebounds
- Relying heavily on volatile investments
- Not updating their strategy as life changes
Overconfidence, especially during market highs or lows, can weaken even the best retirement plan.
Volatile Markets = Emotional Decisions
Market dips can trigger fear, while rallies can create overconfidence. Both lead to impulsive decisions like pulling out investments too soon or chasing unrealistic gains.
The best strategy? Stick to your plan. Retirement is a marathon, and your emotions should never dictate your next financial move.
What Canadians Really Need for Retirement Confidence
True confidence comes from:
- Clear, measurable goals
- A written plan that includes income projections and lifestyle needs
- Protection strategies like permanent life insurance or annuities
- Diversified investments (RRSPs, TFSAs, pensions, real estate)
- Regular conversations with a financial professional
Employers Want to Help, But Personalized Advice Matters
Many Canadian employers offer retirement support through workplace pensions or group RRSPs, but without proper education, these tools aren’t enough. That’s why one-on-one guidance from a trusted advisor is crucial.
At Veracity LD, we help working Canadians and entrepreneurs make sense of their retirement path with practical advice and custom strategies.
