Markets closed last week hopeful that a U.S.–Iran peace deal will finally help unwind the shock to global energy markets seen this year, with equities hitting new record highs and bonds rebounding.
Weekly market wrap How did the markets perform this week? Get the highlights and the latest economic news.
Market ups and downs can feel unsettling, but they're a natural part of investing. When markets dip, it doesn't mean your long-term strategy is broken. It means markets are doing what they've always done: moving in cycles.
Reacting to every market swing can pull you off course. The investors who reach their goals are often the ones who stay focused on what matters most to them, not what's happening this week or this month.
If market volatility is making you second-guess your plan, let's talk. We can review your strategy together and help make sure it still aligns with where you want to go.

One of the most common questions about Old Age Security (OAS) is when to start taking it. The standard age is 65, but you can delay until age 70. Each choice affects how much you receive.
Starting at 65 means you begin receiving income earlier. But if you delay, your monthly payments increase by 0.6% for each month you wait, up to a maximum 36% increase at age 70.
So which option is right for you? It depends on several factors unique to your situation. Your current tax rate matters. If you're still working or have other significant income, delaying might make sense. Your total income matters too, because OAS is subject to a clawback if your income exceeds certain thresholds.
If you're approaching 65 and wondering when to start your OAS, reach out. I can help you evaluate your options based on your personal circumstances.

Many couples don’t talk about money until they have to. A cohabitation agreement can help you answer the uncomfortable questions early:
Who pays for what? Who owns what? What happens if things change?

If you’re navigating these conversations or want guidance on how financial planning fits into your relationship, reach out. I’m happy to talk through your options and help you feel more confident moving forward.

Helping your child buy a home is meaningful. For many parents, it's a natural extension of supporting their children through major life milestones. But it should fit within a sustainable plan that protects your own financial future.
Before you commit, review your retirement needs. Can you afford to part with this money without affecting your lifestyle in retirement? What about emergencies or potential caregiving needs down the road?
Consider how this support today affects your other goals. Are you delaying something important for your own future? Could this impact your ability to maintain your home, travel, or cover healthcare costs as you age?
Planning ahead helps you balance generosity with financial security. It means you can help your child in a way that doesn't create stress or limitations for you later. A structured approach provides clarity for both you and your child about what's possible and what expectations make sense.
If one of your goals is to help your children financially, let's plan for it. I can help you understand what you can comfortably afford while protecting your own long-term security.

A cohabitation agreement is a smart first step, but it's really just the beginning of your financial journey together. The conversations you have while creating the agreement often reveal bigger opportunities for financial planning.

Whether that's building wealth, planning for a family, saving for retirement, or buying a home together, your financial strategy should evolve as your relationship does.
Financial planning isn't just about managing what you have. It's about creating room for what you want to build together.

Cohabitation agreement checklist Do you need a cohabitation agreement? And if so, what should it include? Before we answer those questions, let's first ask, what is a cohabitation agreement?
A balanced family budget isn't about deprivation or cutting everything you enjoy. It's about creating a realistic plan that supports your goals and fits your life.
Start with clear, achievable goals. Build in flexibility for unexpected expenses, because life rarely goes exactly as planned. Review your budget regularly and adjust as your circumstances change. The families who succeed with budgeting are the ones who stay consistent, not perfect.
And remember, you don't have to figure this out alone. Working with an advisor means having someone who can help you review your current situation, refine your goals, and create a strategy that can help keep you on track.
