Your client, Cosmo, recently inherited $50,000 from his uncle. He wants to use this money towards his retirement savings. Cosmo is a 50-year old, self-employed carpenter and he earns on average $65,000
per year. He has a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) with the bank worth $425,000 and a tax-free savings account (TFSA) worth $46,000. He started saving when he was 25 years old and has always
made his own investment decisions. His money is mostly invested in balanced funds. He feels most comfortable with these types of mutual funds since they offer potential investment growth but without being too aggressive. Cosmo has no other assets.
