Taking advice from an expert is always the recommended course of action but when it comes to your hard earned dollars it seems often the most difficult advice to receive. As fee-based advisors we sit on the same side of the table; if you succeed we succeed, likewise when you are unsuccessful we share in that financial loss. Today we highlight some of the areas we find the most difficult to give advice on and yet where we find it may be most useful to you; the conversion to cash, rebalancing, the hot stock tip, too much debt and to TFSA or not to TFSA. This and more today on ThinkSmart.
