Do you feel frustrated with the money you’ve been making (or NOT making is probably more like it) on your savings?

Do you start getting stomach pains or anxiety attacks when you pick up your mail and see investment statements from your bank or financial advisor? If you do, then there is only one way to stop the pain and begin your journey on the road to building true wealth.

The first 3 video's are seminar lectures in the Personal Pension Academy and are FREE where I will teach you:

  • How to turn your Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA) into a personal pension that will start paying you income immediately
  • How to avoid what I call the ADD Investment Death Trap and stay focused on a simple and achievable investment goal
  • How the financial industry murders your money and the dirty little secrets they would rather you not know

Just scroll down to the curriculum listing below for Instant Access to this very important training series. If you like what you see and want step by step guidance on how to invest and build your own personal pension, then sign up for the full Personal Pension Academy online course.

Have you ever wondered why it seems so difficult to make any money on your investments? Doesn’t it seem that you’re never getting ahead when you invest in mutual funds?

In this course, I teach people about investing and give them the formula to build true wealth.

WARNING: I throw convention out the window and tell you how the current financial system is set up so that Bay & Wall Street makes all the money, and we get left with any crumbs. I’ll admit it is somewhat controversial, but believe me I think you will find it quite eye opening.

Think of me as the Mike Holmes of financial advice. I am hoping to change, or at least get another perspective, on the way you think about money.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Understand the most effective way to invest for the long term and build true wealth
  • Build a portfolio of investments that pays income distribution and dividends
  • Manage your own portfolio with minimal or no fees and keep more of their money for themselves
  • Understand what to look for when buying a security and have the right tools to help you choose

I absolutely love this course. I wish I was told this in accountancy classes that I am taking. Do not get me wrong, it is great that I will get a paper at the end of my studying, but this course is definitely worth time and money.

Ian, thank you so much for creating the PPA, and continuing to post your recommended securities! You do a fantastic job, and it is worth every penny of what you charge for it.

My wife and I are very grateful for you, we searched high and low trying to find information for self-investing in Canada - and besides you, there isn't much.

We first became inspired to self-invest after reading Tony Robbin's book "Money - Master the game", only to find out that investing is very different here in Canada. Most of the companies offering help and services don't go north of the border, leading to the typical "online runaround" of trying to find info but ultimately becoming frustrated and confused by the lack of clear information.

So you saved the day, you're a great Canadian, helping fellow Canadians...so thanks again.

- Jeff R.
