Welcome to episode 4 of Retire Me.

Today we talk about strategies that retirees can use to lower their tax bills in retirement.  We touch on topics including:

  • the types of income that can be split or shared in retirement
  • tax credits (coupons) that are available to retirees
  • how CPP sharing is different than income splitting
  • how a retired couple with $100k of family income can save 25% on their tax bill in the first year of retirement using income splitting and tax credits
  • Mark talks about his great skiiing adventure from Sunday with Sarah and the kids :)
