Useful answers

Cornwall healthcare professionals questions

Do you work with both employed and self-employed healthcare professionals?

Yes. Recommendations are based on your actual compensation, benefits, professional expenses and business structure.

Should I pay off student debt before investing?

Not always. The appropriate balance depends on interest rates, available cash reserves, repayment obligations, income stability and long-term goals.

Is my workplace disability coverage sufficient?

It may be, but the benefit amount, waiting period, definition of disability, taxation and portability should be reviewed before deciding whether additional coverage is necessary.

Should I invest personally or through my professional corporation?

The answer depends on your corporate cash requirements, personal income needs, registered-account room, tax position and investment objectives. Your accountant should confirm the tax implications.

Can Centerpointe coordinate with my other professional advisors?

Yes. Financial planning can be coordinated with the accountants, lawyers and other qualified professionals involved in your affairs.
