Think you're saving enough for your Canadian retirement — or are you just chasing returns while missing the wealth-building moves that Canadians like Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary swear by?

For many aspiring high-net-worth Canadians and incorporated business owners, the drive to grow wealth often leads to chasing the next hot stock or investment trend. But as Kevin O'Leary reminds us, real financial freedom comes from discipline, strategy, and maximizing tax-sheltered opportunities that most overlook. In this episode, we break down the exact number O’Leary says you need to retire comfortably — and how he’d invest it to protect and grow wealth.

Whether you're earning over $200K annually or just starting to scale your incorporated business, this conversation will challenge your assumptions. We dive deep into why RRSPs are still one of the most underused tools for wealth creation, who’s actually maxing out their contribution room, and how the wealthiest Canadians are using strategies rooted in long-term thinking — not hype-driven returns.

What you’ll learn:

• Discover why many Canadians are leaving hundreds of thousands in unused RRSP contribution room — and how to avoid making a big retirement planning miscue.
