Are your capital gains quietly building into a financial time bomb that could detonate right when you need liquidity the most?

For many high-earning Canadians—especially tech professionals with stock options and RSUs or business owners with most of their wealth tied up in their company—capital gains don’t feel dangerous… until they suddenly are. As positions grow year after year, so does the tax liability, the concentration risk, and the emotional resistance to selling. By the time liquidity, diversification, or retirement planning becomes urgent, the opportunity for elegant, tax-efficient strategies has already closed. This episode digs into why capital gains become such a trap, how optionality slowly disappears, and what both employees and business owners can do before they hit a point of no return.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How concentration risk quietly compounds and why waiting makes the tax burden exponentially harder to manage.
• The strategic moves that only work before you need to sell, from trimming positions to pairing gains and losses to building diversified buckets.
• Why business owners face the same capital-gains trap as employees—and what they can do to de-risk while keeping growth potential and flexibility intact.

Press play now to learn how to unwind capital gains strategically—long before the tax bill dictates your decisions. If you'd like, I can tighten the tone further, make it punchier, or create a more SEO-optimized version.

Are you relying on popular wealth-building books but still unsure how to actually follow their advice without stressing over every dollar?

This episode breaks down two of the most influential personal-finance books for Canadian business owners—I Will Teach You to Be Rich and Becoming Your Own Banker—and reveals the hidden challenges most readers never address. You’ll hear how seemingly “simple” strategies like automated index investing often collide with real human behavior, business-owner cash-flow fears, and the psychological barriers that keep money sitting idle. You’ll also get a grounded look at infinite banking—what works, what’s misunderstood, and how to avoid forcing yourself into rigid systems that don’t match your goals. If you’ve ever wondered why “the math makes sense” but still feels impossible to follow, this conversation will connect the dots.

You’ll discover:

• Why strong wealth strategies fail without accounting for real-life behavior and cash-flow uncertainty
• How a “wealth reservoir” can make investing easier, safer, and more consistent than traditional emergency-fund thinking
• A clearer way to blend equities, fixed income, and high-cash-value insurance so your plan reflects your reality—not someone else’s formula
