What people have said about this workshop

"I thought your recent Retire Happy Workshop was fantastic and very worthwhile! I found your whole approach very refreshing and encouraging. I appreciated your extensive knowledge, down to earth “you can do this” approach and most of all your energy and enthusiasm. Thanks again for a very informative day!"

"Retirement planning has always been for me an anxious endeavor, with the underlying concern of "not having enough money", a message that is constantly reinforced by those individuals trying to sell me more RRSPs.  Attending Jim's workshop was like lifting a weight off my shoulders because I learned that retirement planning should reflect what I want to do and how I want to do it, and that I will be able to afford the retirement I want. I won't be pressured by financial sales pitches any more."

Thanks so much for presenting the recent Retirement Workshop.  There was so much jammed into the day that my brain is still swimming.  One of my "lightbulb moments" was learning that it's not all about the money.  I am looking forward to using the tools provided to help make my retirement "the best ever".
