On this week’s episode of More Than Money, Faisal Karmali and Leanna Wachniak look at why Canadians place such a high value on guaranteed retirement income and what those without a workplace pension can do to create more financial security.

Then, Salimah Walji-Shivji, CEO of AgeCare, joins the show to explain Alberta’s continuing care system, the different levels of care available, and how retirees can prepare for future costs before a crisis occurs.

Next, economist Moshe Lander discusses two major pipeline proposals involving Alberta oil and what their potential economic impact could mean for retirees and their finances.

To close the show, Faisal and Leanna explore the Financial Independence Retire Early movement and what Canadians in their 40s and 50s should consider if they hope to retire ahead of schedule.
