About Life Money

A trusted team of certified financial planners dedicated to making financial guidance accessible and understandable for everyday Canadians across the Greater Toronto Area.

Our Story

Life Money was founded by a group of certified financial planners who came together with a shared vision: to create a place of trust where exceptional financial service meets clear, understandable guidance for everyday people.

After witnessing too many families struggle with complex financial jargon and overwhelming investment options, our founders decided to do things differently. We believe that sound financial planning should be accessible to everyone, not just the wealthy elite.

Today, Life Money serves families and individuals across the Greater Toronto Area, specializing in life's most significant financial transitions: divorce, inheritance, business sales, and career changes. Our approach is simple yet powerful: listen first, explain clearly, and act with integrity.

The Life Money Editorial Team

Every guide on this site is published under one byline: Life Money Editorial Team. We use AI tools to research and draft, and a person checks every figure against the CRA, Service Canada, ESDC, provincial fee schedules or the product issuer before it goes live. We don't put individual names or professional designations on articles.

The advisory practice behind Life Money is led by a CFP®-certified financial planner in the Greater Toronto Area. The editorial team works to that standard, and the planner is who you speak with when you book a conversation about your own retirement, inheritance, severance or business sale.

About This Site & Our Editorial Standards

Alongside our advisory work, we publish one of Canada's largest free libraries of plain-language personal-finance guides — over 1,200 articles covering government benefits (EI, CPP, OAS, GIS, CCB), inheritance and probate, tax planning, halal investing, and side-by-side comparisons of Canadian financial products. We started writing them because the questions our clients asked rarely had clear, Canadian, current-year answers anywhere online.

Every guide follows the same standards:

  • Primary sources only. Dollar amounts, rates, and thresholds are verified against the CRA, Service Canada, ESDC, provincial fee schedules, or the product issuer's own published documents — and dated to the current year.
  • Corrections happen fast. When a figure changes (or we get one wrong), we fix it across every affected article, not just the one you're reading.
  • Faith-based content is screened, not improvised. Our halal investing guides apply the AAOIFI screening methodology to each fund's actual holdings, and every ruling carries a clear "this is not a fatwa — consult a qualified scholar" disclaimer.
  • Education, not personalized advice. Articles explain how the rules work; they don't replace one-on-one planning for your specific situation.

Life Money is based in Mississauga, Ontario and serves clients across the Greater Toronto Area. The fastest way to reach us — whether it's a question about an article, a correction, or your own planning — is the contact form.
