For Professionals™

We are a group of fellow professionals who recognized that the traditional financial strategies weren’t enough for the current changing environment. We have devised the CPPP to be operated on a not-for-profit basis. By the time most of us learn or get around to having a sound strategy we often wish we started sooner. As professionals ourselves, we understand:

  • The financial challenges and stress of financial uncertainty
  • Lack of financial security and safety net despite high income
  • Lack of initiative by government and professional associations
  • The “merry-go-round”/hamster treadmill phenomenon
  • FIRE “Financially Independent and Recreational Employment”
