There are still more sellers than there are buyers, and that is putting a little bit of a downward pressure on prices.”His perspective gave Canadians a clearer sense of the regional forces affecting home decisions.[04:48] Ian Gallagher: Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Succession PlanningEntrepreneurship continuously reshaped Canada's economic landscape, adapting it to new technology and ideas.Ian Gallagher explained younger companies used digital tools to drive growth and margins.He also highlighted how immigrant entrepreneurs brought creativity and momentum to many sectors.His insights showed why business owners benefited from planning early for future succession.[06:13] CIO David Wong: Investing Wisely Through Short-Term NoiseMarket volatility continued to test investor confidence throughout the season.Chief Investment Officer, David Wong explained how emotional reactions often led to missed financial gains.He explained why diversification and patience played a key role in navigating uncertainty.The conversation encouraged Canadians to stay aligned with their timeline rather than the daily news. [07:24] Aaron Young: Fixed Income's Role in a Balanced PortfolioFixed income remained a steadying force during uncertain market periods.According to Aaron Young, bonds helped offset equity risk and protect capital.He emphasized that fixed income still held value for investors at every experience level.His guidance reinforced the importance of keeping fixed income as part of a balanced portfolio.[08:36] Meric Koksal: Alternative Investments and Intergenerational Wealth PlanningAlternative assets became increasingly relevant as investors searched for new sources of return.In her conversation with Carissa, Meric Koksal outlined why private equity, private credit and real estate gained traction.She noted how longer time horizons supported higher potential growth for younger generations.Her perspective showed how alternatives complemented traditional strategies and strengthened family planning.[10:20] Michael Keaveney: Teaching Financial ResponsibilityBuilding strong money habits early continued to shape long-term outcomes for young Canadians.As Michael Keaveney discussed in his episode, giving children a voice encouraged responsibility and confidence.[10:48] Michael Keaveney: “I think it's entirely appropriate and a good idea for children to learn that the money didn't fall out of the sky, that a plan was put together, a conscious choice was made, maybe even at the expense of other options, and as time goes on, the child can have an increasingly a voice in that plan.”He explained how involvement supported better financial literacy over time.His insights highlighted how even small contributions taught meaningful lessons.[12:19] Richard Voss: Estate Planning and Lifetime GivingLifetime giving emerged as a meaningful approach for modern estate planning.In his appearance, Richard Voss explained how passing down financial gifts during a life time creates a greater positive impact for loved ones.In his experience, many inheritances arrived too late to be fully useful; Canadians are living longer, and the passing on of wealth happens much later.His guidance encouraged Canadians to support the next generation when it mattered most.
