Dan and David Ingram discuss Seabank Capital's accounts and the fact they can contain products in both US and Canadian dollars saving the discount fees normally charged by other firms when you sell or buy US investments (as a Canadian) or Canadian investments in the US. The savings can be dramatic.
During the show David answers a question from a Canadian interested in purchasing real estate as an investment from the California market. The answer to this question provides an insight into what is currently happening in the US real estate market today and alludes to a coming crisis in the near future as a new series of mortgages come due for rate increases.

Brian Elgood is new man on the block at Seabank Capital but he has extensive background in tonight's topic - charitable foundations and the various ways that individuals can make donations to them in the most beneficial ways.
David and Brian discuss the potential for giving charitable foundations stock that would otherwise require capital gains tax be paid. Doing the giving this way, rather than liquidating the stock and giving the proceeds, increases the benefit to the charity and may in fact lower the donor's tax burden more than the typical write-off would. Richard Moore, David's earlier guest this evening, has used this technique and explains how and why he used it.
