Individuals aged 65 or older by the end of the tax year will qualify for the Age Credit. It's factored on the Age Amount and can effectively increase your personal exemption. In 2018, the Age Amount is $7,333. So if you were entitled to the entire Age Amount, coupled with your personal exemption of $11,809, your federal "tax-free zone" would be $19,142. Increase that number by an additional $2,000 for the Pension Credit, and you're just over $21,000 before income becomes taxable in 2018. However, once your Net Income exceeds $36,976, the Age Amount (and Credit) starts to be reduced and is totally eliminated at the point where net Income reaches $85,864. [2019] - Daryl Diamond

In syndicates, money from investors support a property's acquisition for investment purposes. Buying into a syndicate requires that the investor get an independent legal opinion and a clear understanding of the risks involved. Syndicated properties offer several benefits, including potentially a lower degree of risk because the syndicator rigorously scrutinizes properties before investors join the syndicate. Syndicated properties also typically offer a higher return to investors than comparable properties investors manage themselves. A wise investor must know the syndicate's track record and read the prospectus carefully. [2020] - Douglas Gray

Panic, like asthma, is usually preceded by an increase in breathing volume and rate and a decrease in carbon dioxide. To stop the attack before it strikes, breath slower and less, increasing carbon dioxide. This simple and free technique reverses dizziness, shortness of breath, and feeling of suffocation. It can effectively cure a panic attack before the attack comes on. 'Take a deep breath' is not a helpful instruction. Hold your breath is much better.  [2020] - James Nestor
