I stumbled upon an eye-catching YouTube video this morning titled “Mark Carney SHOCKS The World by Threatening Donald Trump!” and it got me thinking about how global politics and big-power economics are shaping our world’s future — often in ways ordinary people don’t fully see. Before you watch or share that video link with your friends, let’s unpack the real story behind the headlines in a way that’s easy to follow and actually grounded in real events . 🧭 Who Is Mark Carney? Mark Carney isn’t a political newcomer — he’s one of Canada’s most experienced economic minds. He once led the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England before becoming Prime Minister of Canada in 2025 . His leadership has come at a time of rising tensions between Canada and the United States, especially under the presidency of Donald Trump. 📉 So What Was the “Threat”?

💡 如何保護您的 RRSP、TFSA 和遺產,免於沉重稅務 很多人擔心,一旦身故,政府會拿走自己一半的積蓄。這種顧慮特別針對那些在 RRSP(退休儲蓄計劃) 中累積了可觀金額、又沒有配偶可承接的人。下面我們一起看看實際情況,以及如何透過理財規劃減少損失。 1. RRSP 的稅務陷阱 如果是單身或離婚人士, 過世當年的 RRSP 餘額會被視為收入 。例如,RRSP 有 60 萬,可能會被推到最高稅階,最後高達 45–50% 會被徵稅 。 👉 應對方法 :在生前逐步提取 RRSP,分散在多年納稅,避免一次性被抽重稅。也可將 RRSP 轉成 RRIF ,定期領取。 2. TFSA 的優勢 好消息是: TFSA(免稅儲蓄帳戶) 無論生前或身故,提款一律免稅。唯一的問題是如果沒有指定受益人,可能要經過驗證程序。 👉 應對方法 :務必在 TFSA 上直接指定 繼承人或受益人 ,可避免繁瑣程序。 3. 為子女與孫兒規劃 可在遺囑中設立 信託 ,讓孫兒到 18 歲(甚至更晚)才能動用資金。 也可在生前贈與,但未滿 18 歲會有所得歸屬的稅務規則。 4. 與子女聯名帳戶 與子女開設聯名帳戶可避免約 1.25% 的驗證費,但要小心: 容易引起 兄弟姊妹間爭議 。 聯名帳戶資金可能受子女債務或婚姻糾紛影響。 5. 整體觀點 驗證費遠低於 RRSP 的所得稅問題 ,規劃重點應放在稅務。 可考慮在遺囑中安排 慈善捐贈 ,用抵稅額來減少 RRSP 稅。 保持遺囑與受益人指定 最新 。 💬 重點 :及早逐步提取 RRSP、善用 TFSA、清楚指定受益人、靈活運用信託,就能避免您辛苦積攢的財富,有一半落入政府手中。 💡 How to Protect Your RRSP, TFSA, and Estate from Big Tax Bills Many people worry that when they pass away, the government will take away half of their life savings. This concern is especially true for thos...
