Guardian Capital provides a free calculator for use on its site.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, this calculator is saying if you invested $100,000 in this product today (and would have to be born between January 1, 1957 and December 31, 1961 to be eligible) then Guardian Capital estimates you will receive $6,500 in distributions each year. Then, if you haven\u2019t yet gone to the \u201cgreat tax haven in the sky\u201d 20 years after you make the investment, you will be eligible to receive a lump-sum \u201ctontine\u201d payout. In this example case, you\u2019d get $81,783 at a time in your life when many Canadians are worried about increased expenses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When I asked Guardian Capital about the assumptions behind their returns, they responded by stating, \u201cGuardian assumptions are, in our view, based on sound actuarial principles and conservative market outlooks.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I believe it\u2019s a fair assessment. To be honest, the combination of actuarial math and investment return probabilities are pretty complex math to be checking. Personally, I think this is worthwhile for investors to look into, though, especially if they want to ease their minds when it comes to longevity risk (outliving their nest egg) while at the same time having the comfort of someone else managing their money in a responsible manner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A quick note for those interested in this unique product. The Series A version of the fund has a management fee of 1.35% whereas the Series F version has a management fee of 0.60%.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a pretty sizable difference worth investigating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Want to know more?
