Meet Chris, a resilient entrepreneur who understands the true value of money and the importance of strategic financial planning. Through the challenges of bankruptcy in his first business, he learned that a strong balance sheet is only meaningful when you can effectively extract funds from your business while minimizing taxes.
When it comes to selling your business, Chris knows that this pivotal moment represents a significant tax event in your lifetime. You can either write a hefty check to the CRA or redirect those funds towards a cause close to your heart. With his expertise, he guides entrepreneurs on a strategic path to not only support charitable endeavors but also ensure that the money finds its way back into their family's hands.
