Our Story
“Hi, I’m Christopher Liew and I’d like to share the story of why I started Blueprint Financial.”
I grew up often feeling anxious about money, even though my family was financially stable. That scarcity mindset followed me throughout life. No matter how much I earned or how hard I worked, I always felt like I didn’t have enough.
Over time, I realized financial stress wasn’t just my problem. Rich or poor, it was something many of my clients, friends, and family struggled with.
Interestingly, some of my wealthiest clients and friends are the ones most stressed out about their money!
Navigating Financial Uncertainty
“In 2019, I launched a financial education website and YouTube channel.”
It reached over six million Canadians before I sold the two platforms. I kept hearing the same concerns from my audience: people saving for retirement who were worried they would never retire, retirees worried about running out of money or missing key lifestyle goals, and business owners struggling with investing extra income and managing taxes.
Over time, more and more Canadians were asking me about how to leave the country without tax issues. As someone who’s worked remotely abroad in the past and navigated international tax rules myself, I saw firsthand how complex it can be.
On top of hidden fees and the overall distrust of financial advisors and banks, many Canadians feel lost about their financial future and unsure of whom they can turn to for help.
When I started working as a financial advisor in Canada, I applied financial planning to my own life by closely tracking expenses, building detailed plans, and stress-testing my investments. For the first time in my life, I felt in control, and my worries and anxiety about money began to fade. This experience taught me that a solid financial plan and a little education can go a long way to improving your quality of life.
I wanted to help people using the same plans that provided me with so much peace of mind. That’s why I started Blueprint Financial.
