    I took it at 60, because it allowed me to afford to work 4 days (32 hours) per week instead of 5 days(40 hours), right up until I retired at 64 due to COVID layoffs. Constant 3-day weekends makes for a much better work/life balance.

    My 2cents is stop working as soon as you can , don’t work anymore then you have to and Take what ever you can as soon as you can . I seen so many people die within a couple years of retirement after staying late because their going to live forever and there’s never enough money. Or your going to end up in some home that’s taking 75% of your pension while you share a room with someone who never worked a day in his life. Enjoy your retirement as soon as you can .

    I once read about taking early CPP and it was put this way: They took an example of twins. Both earned pretty much the same throughout their lives and both had about equal net worth. One took early pension and the other did not. The one who did not take it early took 13 years to receive the amount the other did. Take it early since we don't know how long we've got.

      The example I posted above shows the growth of the roughly 40 K at 3, 4 and 5 percent. which is left to grow and added to the running sum of money collected after 65. You can see the 3 percent rate breaks even at 76, the 4 percent breaks even at almost 79 and 5 percent always exceeds. Add to that any possibility of growth if that money is in the market or ETF and its easy to see that investing the 60-65 money will outperform... Now I'm using some rough and probably incorrect assumptions about the 60 and 65 year old pension rates... Use your own values to confirm.

      I think the decision is case by case .. life expectancy is one piece .. retirement timing .. need for the money (semi-retirement) .. taxes (if there’s enough RRSP contribution room) .. RRSP performance (if I contribute all CPP that I receive before retirement, how much more / month will I be able to take out after retirement) .. etc

    @KanataVIP ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I took my CPP @ 62. Reason: I am still working and am forced to pay CPP premiums until 65...with no increase my future CPP benefit! If I don't collect, I send about ~$20K in premiums out the window by age 65. Collecting ($10,245 in 2022) gives me needed income now, and allows me to start building the post-retirement benefit (PRB) which generated an additional $710 annually in 2022 and maybe up to $1500 annually by age 65 which offsets a good chunk of the original penalty. The overall penalty averages out to about ~$1500/yr if I live to 80 and my wife collects the survivor benefit for 5 more years. Worth it.

I have seen interviews on Tv when people are getting extra help from government and they are passing it to their grand children who are running around with a thousand dollar cell phones .

    Assuming you can retire at 60, the most critical factor is how much more "useful" the money is from 60-70 versus 70-80. I had an acquaintance tell me that his 60th birthday was awesome since he still felt really fit and ready to really enjoy retirement, he also said his 70th birthday was _completely_ different, with age really starting to become "noticeable". He was still very able-bodied at 72, but he said there is absolutely no comparison to 62! Past 60, age-related effects are an *exponential* curve, so don't kid yourself into thinking that 40-60 is _at all_ the same as 60-80.

    I don’t have much of a pension so I’m using rsp’s from 61 - 65 , taking as much out as possible to keep me in the lowest tax bracket.
    From age 65 - 69 I’m going to collect my small pension, oas and gis, using a little from my tfsa to supplement (tfsa is not considered income so it won’t affect my gis amount), then at 70 I will shift to the highest payout of all with my cpp.
    Cpp increases 8% per year by not taking it, great return on your money.

    David . in my opinion , taking CPP at 60 does not incur a reduction ( of 36% ) on the total amount showing at the end of the graph . in fact , the word “reduction” here is misleading , simply because you do not talk about the PRESENT VALUE of money . Please look at your graph at minute 5:27 and see what happens between age 60 and 73 , and all the money cashed in during those 13 crucial years . Crucial because money has a lot more value in that timeline than in the future . Also , the person who started getting money at age 60 did just that : started getting money !! and 5 or 10 years more than their counterparts . That is a lot of money compared to no money at all till age 65 or 70 . Not to forget , with age , quality of life also deteriorates , there is no way around that .. much like the purchasing power of money .. Who cares about the total amount received by the end of the graph which depicts the end of one’s lifetime , providing the individual actually lives that long and does not get hit by a bus , besides all the other probability and statistical challenges or negative odds that the individual is facing .
    I say live your life now .
    It would be interesting to see a graph that shows how misleading statistical graphs can be .
    This is my opinion . I am not an accountant or a professional financial planner , but I believe it is important to clearly explain to your audience the present value of money , the ever diluting purchasing power of currency , the trailing lagging index that our government portrays as the ultimate solution to inflation ( CPP GIS OAS ) . At this rate , many Canadian pensioners will never be able to make ends meet because the real purchasing power of money needed for say food , accommodation , energy is much much lower than any graph based on statistics and theory presents . just saying

      Hi I'm thinking about taking my CPP early as well and will continue to work til I'm 63 at the same job which I have been working in for 36 years and paying max amount for most of those years - I had children and had an industrial accident so my contributions were less those years. I was told my CPP now would be around $850 pm. Since I had my work place accident and collect WCB for 1 day a week, my earnings at my job are less and they increased the yearly earnings for max amount I no longer pay max amount into CPP. I missed it by $400. last year and $1200. in 2021. I still collect over the minimum amount to pay max with my WCB and my job but WCB doesnt pay into CPP. Yup I got screwed. So my question to you is how much did it affect your CPP between age 60 and 63 when you retired? Did you continue to pay max amount and how much of a difference did those 3 years make when they calculated the 3 extra years into your CPP when you retired at 63? Sorry to be so long winded.

    Another think that is never discussed is the survivor benefit with CPP. I was 60 and my wife was 59. She had breast cancer and would probably die. I phoned SC and discussed my options knowing my wife was going to die in the next few months. In simple numbers if I took CPP at 60, 65, & 70 I'd get $600/$1000/$1400 per month assuming my wife would also get her max CPP since she was fully paid up. Since it was pretty sure my wife was going to pass and I would get a survivor benefit which would be about 40% of her CPP. So I figured at 65 I'd get $1400 per month. But the agent told me at 65 there is a max benefit payout of $1100 (round numbers) so the this all I'd get and the govt would keep the rest. So taking CPP at 60 made more sense because I'd get my $600 plus the 40% death benefit and even then, they would still claw back $25 per month.
    So if either of you and your spouse is terminal take the pension early. I asked why that max payout number isn't published but didn't get an answer - because they didn't really want people to know about the claw back.

      My husband passed at 52. I didn't know anything about CPP but got the survivor benefit. I work full-time as well. He worked from 18 years old, and I get approximately $680/mth. This $680 actually costs me more in tax than I get, but when I asked about stopping it for now, I was told if I stop it, I lose it. I cannot restart it later if I cancel it now that I've already started taking it.

    Another reason (and the one which I took early CPP for) is that I knew I will definitely be a GIS recipient at age 65 due to lower income over my years of work. Right now I have a situation that allows me to live 'ok' on this lower CPP amount and I know that at 65, both the full OAS and a certain amount of tax free GIS will apply. The lower my CPP plus OAS is at 65, the greater the amount of tax free GIS I will receive. (I knew this from others in similar situations and searched and searched until I found this on a financial website to be true....so decided to go this way. So far, so good! Am 61)

It seems to be hard to find information on this as i suppose not many couples are 5 years apart in age?

    I am retiring at 58yo and my wife will retire at 62yo. We both have Derived Benefit Pensions. Women in her family live to 95-100yo, there is no history on my side of the family. In my retirement at 58yo till 60yo I will get $4200/month while My wife will be making $92,000/year over those 2 years while still working. Wondering if I should take my CPP at 60yo since I have no family history of longevity? By my calculation if I take CPP at 60yo I will make $4200/mo Pension, $770/mo CPP and about $600/mo OAS for $5500/month or $67,000/year. My wife in retirement will get $3,000/mo Pension, $770/mo CPP and about $600 OAS for $4370/month or $52440/year. Total income will be $120,000/year. We will both be under the OAS clawback amount. We will also still both be under the OAS clawback amount if we took CPP at 65yo. Is having an uncertain family longevity on my side of the family a good enough reason to take CPP at 60yo? or should I wait till 65yo so if I die after that my will will get more money? We will have our home paid for and our vehicles when we retire.

    Nice video, but I would ask that you explore the growth of pension benefits accumulated between early and late start.. and factor in the compounded interest over the interim years. Notably, if you can afford to delay the pension start date, then you can afford to save 100 percent of what you would collect if you start early.
    By my math, this is a win win for an early start as the pensioner is the winner over both a long life or early death. At least the pensioner would have had a chance to collect something if he dies early and not risk collecting nothing if he waited.
    If they live longer than the cross over, then start drawing down the difference from the growth balance from collecting early. If you were to collect $40k over a 5 year period then invest in a simple GIC at 5 percent, it will be around $100K by the cross over date, which moves the cross over date out significantly.
    If I put all my pension collected from 60-65 while still working, into a tax free savings account, and the same amount into an RSP, the tax is deferred on the boosted income while still working. But the best part is the growth of the money in a TFSA is tax free forever.

      Thanks for the response. One consideration I’m looking at is the fact that having too much in my riff and liff will result in a potential clawback when it comes time to collect OAS. The other issue is that I will be required to withdraw a certain amount when I reach 72. Also, there’s no guarantee on the performance of my investments whereas the CPP is a guaranteed income and is adjusted to inflation as you said. So this appears to point in the direction of taking larger Riff and Liff withdrawals now and waiting on CPP. Makes sense ?

      Hi Vincent, receiving and contributing to CPP will enhance your benefit. It’s not a significant adjustment although the cumulative amount is, given you live to an old age. The disadvantage is the increased taxation. You have employment income plus government benefits! A financial plan may provide withdrawals strategies that may result in a better outcome.

    PLEASE - if you are in you late 40’s - go to a good advisor. It could be to your advantage to take you benefits early - but I doubt it. There are 50 scenarios! Think about just this one: it is pretty standard knowledge that ya if you are 30 or so, medical science will give you excellent chance to live to 100. If you retire and take benefits at age 60 - your CPP would be about $600/mo. But you would live another 40 years. From age 60 to age 90 (for example) with inflation @ 3% - your $600 would be worth just about $300! If you are living to 100, keep paying into CPP. At age 70, your CPP will be over $1400/mo. @age 90, it will still be worth about $1100! Like I said - see an advisor!

    Then at 65 you can start collecting full CPP benefit of approx $ 1200 and your pension is only reduced by no longer getting the bridging benefit.

    @iliumboy ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Am I wrong about thinking that the numbers are incorrect? For each year you delay, the amount goes up 8.4%, but isn't the amount adjusted for inflation too? Let's assume inflation adjustment is 2% and at 65, the CPP benefit is $1000. So if you delay 1 year, isn't the benefit now $1020? And the 8.4% increase is now on $1020?

    Thanks for creating the video, there’s allot of information there and even more in many of the comments. I turned 60 last Nov. and decided not to apply for my CPP for several reasons but mainly because I did not need the extra money at this time. I have a great pension, a few RRSP soon maturing and a good chunk of money in my savings. Question 1 - Should I wait until I am 65 to begin receive it? On another note, my wife turns 60 this coming Nov. she also receives a fairly good pension but less than half of mine because she decided to retire early before reaching her full pension age and magic retirement number. We share equally our income and expenses (she has access to mine and I have access to hers) and we spend most of our winter where it is a much warmer climate than back home in Northern Ontario (I wish our Canadian $ was worth more, LOL). My 2nd question is because her pension is less, should my wife apply for her CPP at age 60? It is important to note that her family line has a very good life longevity in its history! 😂 Thanking you in advance for your advice.

We've already been in consultation with lawyers and that's going forward. However, I'm now considering the age 60 CPP option just down the road as it's doubtful at this point whether I'll be able to return to work. Fortunately I'm able to draw on E.I. med benefit payments - but that's only good for 26 wks...and then I go into the twilight zone.

    Love the videos and expert, technical advice! I have a question that I’m not sure was addressed in the videos or comments. ( if it was I apologize for not picking up on it..). I have a Canadian Armed Forces pension that I’ve been drawing since 2017. I’m indexed. I’m also in a second mini career but retiring completely in 2025. My Army pension has a Bridge benefit that gets clawed back when I hit 65 earlier if I opt to take CPP at 60. I’m currently considering waiting to 70 but perhaps 65 is the better option. I think if I take CPP at 65 the Bridge benefit loss is almost cancelled out or equalized by the CPP benefit I’ll get. But waiting the 5 years might be better if I can eat the drop in my pension for the 5 years. Do you have general advice for those of us with a bridge benefit? Thank you Aaron!

    Maybe I missed it, but the cummulative 60 line is the minimum, and the cumulative 70 line is the maximum with 65 not quite the middle. So the plot would be better represented with colored areas showing where your CPP could be if you deferred to say 62 and 6 months or 66 and 3 months, because your circumstances required it. There is also no discussion about those with indexed pensions and bridge amounts vs savings only retirees, where pulling CPP leaves their capital intact a few more years, etc.

    Also: I am not totally sure, but was reading that there is a reason to take CPP early if you retire early and don't have a full number of years paying into the system. I think the number of years counted changes if you take CPP early so you have less 0 years in the average. feel free to correct this if you know better.

    I do think that people worry far too much about OAS clawback. If you have over $129,000 a year in retirement income (almost $11,000 a month, double that for a couple) and your OAS is entirely clawed back then I would say you have little to worry about financially in your retirement. It seems like the OAS tail wagging the retirement dog to me.
    Of course planning your retirement finances is never a bad idea and if you can reduce the amount of OAS claw back why not but realistically, if you are in clawback territory, is some portion of the $600/month that OAS pays really going to affect your finances appreciably?

      It's easy to think, why would someone with a large investment account care about being ineligible to receive $7421 annually (OAS)? But they do. That also might explain why they have done so well.
      A good question to consider is, if your advisor didn't see a clawback coming, what else have they overlooked? There are literally dozens of ways people can save, stretch, earn and avoid on their way to financial success.

      @@AaronWealthManagement I agree that people do worry about OAS clawback when perhaps it's immaterial to their standard of living in retirement (which was kind of my point). I do know that when you've spent years and years of watching every penny "saving for the future" it's a hard habit to break when that future actually arrives. I guess I see some people that focus on avoiding OAS clawback to the detriment of enjoying their retirement, keeping their retirement income lower than it needs to be just to avoid it. Avoiding OAS clawback is kind of like trying to figure out how to dodge probate fees. Sure minimize it if you can but there's no need to go overboard, in the overall scheme of things it's not worth losing sleep over. Heck, I have a 7 figure investment account myself achieved through decades of scrimping, saving, and investing for the long term and between my wife and myself we don't come close to OAS clawback territory in retirement. We would have to have over $13,000/month of retirement income between us to lose even a single dollar to OAS clawback. It seems to me that if you are fortunate enough to be subject to OAS clawback you should count your blessings and move on. By the way... We've delayed CPP & OAS to age 70 for the longer term derisking of our retirement income stream. Who knows if that will pay off but at the end of the day I figure it's about peace of mind--it's not always all about the money.

    It is a house of cards. I would be taking the lump sum every time.

    Hello David - I enjoyed the video - Is it safe to say, if you DONT need the money, deferral is always the best option? I know life expectancy is important, OAS clawback etc. This always seems to be the 'classic gamble' scenario, so since you cannot predict lifespan, health, defer if you have money, seems to be the defining variable, and therefore if you dont need it wait as long as you can?

    • @AaronWealthManagement
      @AaronWealthManagement  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great insight and thank you for your comment. If you don't need the money, then delaying until at least 65 is best. There are other ways to mitigate a clawback on OAS if you start planning for the scenario ahead of time.

    Yeah this was a good video I still need to formulate some more questions on 56 and a very poor saver but my taxes are up-to-date and I’ve paid everything to the max but I’m looking to want to retire out of the country I have a wife in Indonesia and like I said I’m 56 right now I’m in limbo because I’m taking care of my 90-year-old mother I’m just waiting for her to do her thing and then I figure I haveFour years to crush it and get out of Dodge

      Housing costs as a percentage of income have more than doubled since you were in your 20s. They have no money left over to invest. Most members of rhe next generation will never own homes unless they inherit them.

    Hi David, thanks for the very informative video.
    Taking CPP at the age of 60 in this video is assuming one works until the age of 60, correct?
    It would be interesting to know, for someone leaving the work force after 20 years, at the age of 55, would there be any benefit from delaying CPP until the age of 65? Thank you.

    • @AaronWealthManagement

      Hi Bob, this is a common question. Have a look at my video on CPP Breakeven timestamp of 22:25 where I do a live walk-through of CRA's website to calculate an estimated income. On the 2nd tab of the CRA website is the Canada Pension calculation. You can manually enter your income data showing you having zero income at 55. Let me know if that helps. I can always work on a financial plan for you. Great question and thanks for commenting.

    So in your opinion a retiree is better to take CPP at 60 rather than drawing down his investment portfolio.

    • @AaronWealthManagement
      @AaronWealthManagement  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      As each person's circumstances are different, I would say having a written financial plan is the first step. The plan details at what age to start receiving CPP, which retirement accounts to drawdown on and when. Taking CPP early is usually a decision based on needing income. Occasionally retirees will take CPP early to mitigate clawbacks although in my experience its been the need for income or a low family mortality history.

      @@bl9531 See @Practical Tactical response in this thread... he makes very good points that I totally agree with --- here's a snippet of his thread
      "...explore the growth of pension benefits accumulated between early and late start.. and factor in the compounded interest over the interim years. Notably, if you can afford to delay the pension start date, then you can afford to save 100 percent of what you would collect if you start early.
      By my math, this is a win win for an early start as the pensioner is the winner over both a long life or early death. At least the pensioner would have had a chance to collect something if he dies early and not risk collecting nothing if he waited..."

      High inflation certainly cuts into a tight budget. During these times it's a good strategy to have 1-2 years of cash on-hand in laddered GICs while the economy is resetting and inflation slowly returning to a reasonable number.
