Preserving Wealth:

The Next Generation

by Jack Lumsden, MBA, CFP®

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE:  Non-Fiction (Business and Finance)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

"Toronto-based research firm Strategic Insight projects that approximately $1 trillion in personal wealth will be transferred from one generation to the next in Canada between 2016 and 2026, with roughly 70% of that in the form of financial assets."

~ Advisors Edge January 30, 2018

"70 % of Wealth Transfers fail."

~ The Future of Estate Planning. Trusts and Estates June 2010

"65% of Canadians say it's likely they will leave an inheritance to their heirs or estate but only 46% of Canadians have a will."

~ Sun Life Canadian UnretirementTM Index, 2015.

Experts estimate that $1 trillion of inheritances will pass from one generation to the next within a decade in Canada. In addition, many individuals are selling their businesses, resulting in substantial gains. Accordingly, the ability to effectively manage one's wealth and prepare and implement a proper estate plan is no longer just prudent. It's crucial.

Jack Lumsden is an experienced financial advisor who uses an easy-to-read narrative style to clarify financial planning concepts that everyone needs to know. Preserving Wealth explains:

Investment strategies to provide for growth and protection of capital,

How to develop an effective estate transfer plan to reduce estate costs and taxes,

Strategies to preserve wealth and safeguard an inheritance or gift for the next generation,

How to select an executor, and what to do if you are an executor,

The critical discussions to have with your family, and

How to assemble a financial team.

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT:

After Aunt Lorraine left, I asked everyone whether they had followed any of Uncle Wayne’s advice during the past week by starting to pay off their debts.

“I have,” Sally answered. “I paid off all my credit cards, and I’m going to pay the total every month now instead of just the minimum, so I won’t be charged any interest.”

“Atta girl, Sal. You’ve learned something already,” Mark said.

“Mark, I don’t much care for the condescending tone in your voice,” she countered, “and you had better quit referring to women my age as ‘girls.’ It would appear that the politically correct parade has passed you by. No wonder you can’t get a date!”

“I, for one, don’t want to hear about Mark’s social life,” Alice said. “Getting back to Jack’s question, our mortgage is coming up for renewal in about two months, so we’re going to do what makes the most financial sense. We’ll apply our double-up payments and the anniversary payment now and then pay off the balance at renewal time.”

“I’ve never had a mortgage,” Sally said, “so you just lost me, Alice. What are double-up and anniversary payments?”

“Well,” she answered, “there are lots of different kinds of mortgages, but I did some checking, and ours lets us pay an amount equivalent to the monthly mortgage payment, in addition to our regular payment, each month. That’s the double-up feature. The extra payment is applied directly against the principal, which is the amount that was borrowed in the first place.”

“And that would mean the interest component on the remaining mortgage payments would be less,” Sally reasoned, “because you’ve made a deeper dent in the principal.”

“Bingo.”

“Do all mortgages have this double-up feature?” Sally asked.

“No, they don’t,” Alice replied. “You have to check the terms and conditions of each particular mortgage.”

“Wait a minute,” Mark interrupted, “I thought extra payments like that were only allowed on the anniversary date of the mortgage … you know, when the day rolls around every year that you first signed the papers.”

“Well, that might have been true for your mortgage, but not ours,” Alice explained. “Ours was a closed mortgage, and besides the double-up feature, ours allows a one-time 10% at any time during the year, and it’s applied directly against the principal. By the way, the reason we aren’t paying off the entire mortgage now is that we wouldn’t save a dime. In fact, the penalty payments for an early pay-off would be more than the interest we’ll be paying over the next two months until we’re up for renewal.”

I smiled at Alice with respect and set out to explain the mortgage situation for Sandra and me.

“First, we took advantage of the terms of our mortgage by making an anniversary payment, much like yours, Alice. Then we arranged to pay off the remainder of our mortgage, with a penalty, at the end of this month. Come to think of it, it’s a good thing we’d put our cash in a high interest savings account, because Sandra was able to get at the money in a matter of two days.”
