Are you a Canadian business owner sitting on retained earnings but unsure how to invest them without losing half to taxes?

You’ve worked hard to build a profitable corporation, but the moment you try to grow wealth inside it, the tax system feels like a trap. Between passive income rules, dividend categories, and the dreaded 50% tax on investment earnings, it’s no wonder many entrepreneurs hesitate. The truth is, the system isn’t broken—it’s just designed to be complex. And without the right strategy, you could miss out on powerful opportunities to grow and protect your wealth.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How structuring corporate-owned investments—like real estate or insurance—can create long-term tax efficiency and flexibility.
  • Practical steps to balance retained earnings, leverage, and wealth transfer strategies so your money compounds instead of stalls.
