Derek, Thanks for the great information you gave me in our life-changing discussion, and thanks for the mortgage information.Life Changing Discussion It was so nice seeing you today, and I really appreciate your help and advice, as always. I wasn't quite sure what to do with the proceeds from my house sale, and am a lot more confident now. I am always so glad to talk to you. I'm glad you don't think I'm nuts to keep a fair bit of ready cash in my bank account, but I will move it to a savings account. I trust you implicitly and am so grateful that you are there for me to lean on. You are my rock. Besides, I really enjoy your company.Implicit Trust You recently received a letter from AON Consulting advising your firm was placed on the UBC Faculty Pension Plan List of approved Financial Planners. AON also advised that our office would send a communication package to you in the near future....UBC Faculty Pension Plan Approved He is very good at his craft - wise, imaginative, and well informed. He has done scores of cases for Facelift and is an advisor whose counsel I would not hesitate to take.Andrew Allentuck, Globe and Mail I just wanted to let you know that we took your advice and bought and moved to a new house in the same neighborhood (instead of doing the big renovation on the old house). It has now been 1 year and it is very clear to me that, doing the math, moving was by far the cheaper (not mention less stressful) choice. I estimate the reno approach would have at least two times more expensive. Thanks again.Great advice |
