June brings Father’s Day and with it memories
This post is quite personal to us and talks about a vulnerable chapter in our story that has been unfolding since 1996. It is about one father dealing with difficult times, moving forward, and choosing to come out on the other side of the journey stronger and having achieved something, rather than accepting to be enslaved by life’s circumstances.
In 1996 we were enduring much uncertainty coming at us from all directions. The crisis reached its climax when we had to deal with Bob having a potential malignant brain tumor. Through a whirl-wind series of events we ended up in Seattle, Washington later that year, where a doctor with questionable bedside manners told Bob “you do not have a brain tumor, you just have MS, get on with your life”.
Happy Father’s Day to all fathers, fathers to be and aspiring fathers out there.

When to Engage the Expert?

In late April, we hosted our 12th annual Group Insurance Symposium. We normally run this session live in Edmonton each April and again live in Calgary each October. This is a two-day event designed for those who make their home in the group benefits space to obtain their CE credits and share knowledge concerning group insurance and group benefits.

From my experience, advisors tend to add more specialization (and more outsourcing) as they gain more experience. If I were newly starting into the business today, I would list all the functions that I might see a client requiring and choose a small number of those that I would be the provider for. For anything else on that list, I would look for a solution provider that I am comfortable working with, and whose financial model works for me and my clients.

Testimonial
My experience from day one with BCC was nice. The part that really helped me was the review class of Tuesday and Thursday with Tyler. After attending 3 of the classes and adopting the strategies that he taught us for tackling the questions. I was ready to write the provincial examination. A special thanks to Tyler and Maria for the great work they did.
