Oh No, It is that time of the year again. A time when even the most conservative, most careful and most diligent investors seem to lose grasp of what made them successful. It happens every year at this time, but with the ultra-winter that some many parts of the country are experiencing right now, it seems that it is happening even earlier than usual.
There are 6 Rules/Strategies to ensure you don't 'catch the Holiday Brain disease and in this series I will detail each and every one of these "Inoculations" so you can become immune. Don't become an easy target this winter:
Canadians Have Targets On Their Back
Not only do we see it every year, so do the big sales teams. They
know Canadians begin to make desperate decisions at this time of the
year as winter closes in and feels like it may never end. We are
especially targeted with `selling the dream` only to see those dreams
turn to nightmares when reality hits home.
Sure a piece of tropical or recreational paradise may make sense for
some but before you take the plunge please ensure you are following the 6 Rules For Canadians Buying Outside of Canada.
Not only will these rules protect you from `Holiday Brain` but will
also protect you from the often ignored tax, legal and currency issues.
Here is the first in the 6 part series. May I suggest that not only do you read it and implement it, but you also share it with those who will be traveling somewhere warm this winter - so you can inoculate them as well:
