Become and investor
Money is not something you can just put aside, forget about it and let the bank take care of it for you. Sooner or later you will have to deal with investments.
To do so, you want to have some degree of knowledge about what to do with whatever income you are earning and how to invest it.
There is not an infinite number of options of how to legally invest your money to make it grow. Depending of your needs, goals and projects for the short, medium and long term, professional advice can help you navigate through the difficulties of each option to set the best plan for your financial security.
Registered or non-registered accounts
Registered means an account registered with the Canadian Revenue Agency that receives tax advantages.
Non-registered means the account does not benefit of the tax advantages as a registered account, although it usually offers more flexibility.
They both have pros and cons and selecting the right one for you is something a financial security advisor can help you with.
