In this episode of Smart Wealth, Brett and Omari discuss saving for education, specifically for children. They start by highlighting the power of compound interest and early investing, using the example of investing in a hockey stick. They then dive into the details of Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) and how they work. They discuss the limitations of RESPs and explore alternative strategies, such as using whole life insurance policies. They emphasize the importance of starting early and diversifying investments for long-term financial success.
