We invite you to join us for our upcoming complimentary workshop we call the “Lunch & Learn” series. Each month we will be introducing new and interesting topics.

This event took place at the Thornhill Golf & Country Club on Friday, August 22nd between 12:00 and 1:00pm.

The market has reached all time highs. What do I do now? You are not the only person who has asked yourself this question. It’s the extremes of 2008 and 2014 that create panic and anxiety in investors. No pressure, but the success rate of your long-term financial plan is contingent on how you react in these situations.

We will cover

  • How can I invest in the market successfully?
  • How taking advice from magazine and newspaper articles can ruin
    your portfolio.
  • Two identical portfolios with identical time-frames, yet different results?
  • When do I sell?
  • What does “managing behaviour” have to do with my investment returns?

Join us, and ask the questions you want to know.
