Keep More Of What You've Earned
At Goald & Co Financial, we believe that the wealth you’ve built through hard work should stay in your hands. Taxes are inevitable, but paying more than necessary isn’t. Our mission is to help you retain more of what you’ve earned by minimizing your tax liabilities and optimizing your financial strategies. It’s not just about protecting your money—it’s about securing the future you’ve envisioned.
About 70% of Canadians overestimate the price of life insurance, but it’s not their fault! Life Insurance is vague and confusing, and we are here to fix that by getting Canadians with the right policy for their situation, and it all starts as low as $30/month.
We achieve this by crafting personalized strategies that align with your specific financial situation and goals. Our team collaborates with top financial experts, accountants, and private banking institutions to develop solutions that reduce your tax burden while ensuring your assets are protected. We focus on simplicity and efficiency, so you can enjoy the benefits without the hassle.
Life insurance is a way to make sure that your family and dependants don’t suffer financially when you pass. Life insurance can be used to pay for a funeral, pay off debts (including your mortgage), pay for your children’s education and help your family maintain their standard of living when they no longer have you to support them.

When Should I Consider Insurance?
If you're planning to exit your business within the next 5-10 years or want to reduce your tax liability while withdrawing money from your corporation, life insurance becomes essential. It’s also crucial if you aim to build a Capital Dividend Account (CDA) to pass wealth tax-efficiently to your family. For newer successful business owners with significant retained earnings, life insurance can help you mitigate annual tax liabilities while keeping your assets entirely liquid.
While age does influence the cost of life insurance, corporate-owned participating whole life insurance offers additional value. As you age, the investment component of COLI grows within a participating fund, which can help offset higher costs. This ensures that your policy remains a strong financial tool, providing both protection and growth potential over time.
The amount of life insurance you need depends on several factors, including your income, retained earnings, business structure, and shareholder agreements. A tailored strategy is crucial. For example, if you have substantial retained earnings, a larger policy may be necessary to shelter more of your wealth from taxes, provide liquidity for business opportunities, and ensure financial flexibility in the future.
Corporate-Owned Life Insurance (COLI) is a powerful tool for high-net-worth individuals. It offers a tax-efficient way to shelter growth on corporate invested assets and provides liquidity for your business through a tax-free loan. Additionally, the interest on this loan might be tax-deductible when used to secure a collateral loan. Upon your passing, the outstanding loan is repaid from the death benefit, with the remaining proceeds paid out tax-free to your corporation. This strategy not only helps minimize tax liabilities but also maximizes the wealth you can transfer to future generations.
if you’re planning on getting married, having kids, or buying a home, you should probably start to think about it. You will want to make sure that your family is provided for, and can pay off your debts after you’re gone. Getting life insurance while you are young and healthy can result in lower premiums, as you pose a significantly lower risk.
Yes, your age can affect your premiums. Your insurance company is going to evaluate the risk that you pose to the company and place you in a ‘risk grouping’. Usually, the younger you are, the healthier you are, the lower the risk you pose, the lower the premiums that you have to pay. Keep in mind that age is only one factor, and the insurer will also look at things like your gender, medical history, physical condition and if you smoke.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer. The amount of insurance you will need is a highly personal decision. A life insurance agent will look at your assets, debts, personal situation, financial goals and your family’s needs so they can make recommendations tailored to you. Remember, your needs might change throughout your life, so it’s a good idea to review your policy at milestone events such as getting married or having a baby.
Life insurance is a way to make sure that your family and dependants don’t suffer financially when you die. Life insurance can be used to pay for a funeral, pay off debts (including your mortgage), pay for your children’s education and help your family maintain their standard of living when they no longer have you to support them.
