    Check out our webinar for business owners: https://hub.controlandcompound.com/business-masterclass-webinar-replay   For decades, Canadians were told retirement was simple:   ✔ Pay off your mortgage ✔ Max out your RRSP ✔ Collect CPP and OAS ✔ Retire comfortably.   But that plan was built for a completely different Canada.   In this episode, Darren and Christina explain why inflation, taxation, government policy, and longevity are changing retirement forever—and why accumulating assets alone is no longer enough.   They break down:   Why retirement has become a control problem instead of a savings problem The hidden inflation most retirees underestimate The RRSP "tax bet" almost nobody understands How government policy can completely change your retirement plan Why wealthy Canadians focus on flexibility instead of simply accumulating more money How tax diversification creates more retirement options Where participating whole life insurance fits into a long-term wealth strategy   If you're relying solely on traditional retirement advice, this episode may completely change how you think about building wealth.   Subscribe for weekly episodes covering Canadian wealth building, Infinite Banking, tax strategies, investing, entrepreneurship, and financial freedom.

    Your Business Is Growing… So Why Are You More Stressed?

    https://hub.controlandcompound.com/business-masterclass-webinar-replay   Many entrepreneurs start their business believing success will eventually create freedom. But for a lot of business owners, the opposite happens.   The business grows, revenue increases, the team expands… but so do the stress, responsibility, payroll, decisions, overhead, and financial pressure.   In this episode, Darren and Christina break down why successful entrepreneurs can still feel trapped inside the business they built. They discuss the stages of entrepreneurship, how business owners become the bottleneck, why revenue alone does not create freedom, and how systems, delegation, liquidity, and long-term planning can help create true financial and operational freedom.   They also explain why many entrepreneurs are asset rich but liquidity poor, and how strategies like corporate-owned high cash value life insurance can help business owners build stability, flexibility, retirement options, and estate planning benefits outside of the operating company.   If you are a business owner who has built something successful but still feels overwhelmed, this episode is for you.   Show notes:   00:00 - Why successful entrepreneurs still feel trapped   02:17 - The entrepreneurship lie   05:16 - Does your business own you?   06:25 - The 90-day test   08:46 - The stages of entrepreneurship   12:04 - How to start creating freedom   12:46 - Document everything   14:07 - Hire for freedom, not just growth   16:16 - Stop making every decision   18:14 - Cash flow vs. wealth   22:39 - Building liquidity outside the business   25:06 - Why cash value life insurance fits business owners   29:13 - Creating a freedom plan   32:12 - The solution: structure, liquidity, delegation, planning   34:01 - Build your business like you plan to sell it FIND US ON:   INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/controlandcompound    TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@controlandcompound?lang=en   LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/company/darren-mitchell-associates-inc/?viewAsMember=true   BOOK A CALL WITH US NOW: https://www.controlandcompound.com/contact-us
