Laughing Stock Vineyards is Offering the Ultimate Financial Giveaway

This holiday season, Laughing Stock has partnered with Jay Gangnes, founder of Ocean 6 Wealth Advisory, a Vancouver-based financial planning company that works with clients on how to best invest their money and create solid financial plans for building the life they dream about. A certified financial planner serving a diverse range of clients with varying goals, Gangnes has built out some practical financial tips for the holidays and beyond focused on how to grow your wealth and plan for your financial future.

Tip 1: Wealth management is a lifestyle that starts with asking questions.

Wealth management really starts with your goals. If you don’t know where you’re going, you’re never going to get there. Ask yourself: what life do I want to live? Do you want to start a wine collection? Do you dream of a vacation property? If we can clarify your goals from the beginning, then we can make sure we are allocating money to the most important areas so those goals are prioritized—and we can create a plan to ensure they are met.

Tip 2: Saving doesn’t mean holding back on doing what you love.

Imagine your savings plan like a wine collection: there are some bottles you are going to want to enjoy now and some you will want to hold for later. If you were to drink the entire collection, you’d have nothing left, and if you never enjoyed it at all, well, where’s the fun in that? When it comes to saving, it’s important to be allocating money towards your goals, so you can spend what’s left over on things you enjoy and love in the present without feeling guilty. Cheers to that!

Tip 3: If you plan wisely, you can enjoy the holidays guilt free.

Just like anything worthwhile, financial planning takes work. If you remain dedicated to allocating your money toward the things that are important to you and investing year round you’ll feel a lot less pressure over the holidays.

Tip 4: Above all, get clear on what’s important to you and start working toward that—today.

Wealth isn’t just about money—wealth is about living the life you want, and wealth management is how you get there. The holidays are a perfect time to take stock and think about what really matters to you—and to start building a plan to get there.

Laughing Stock Vineyard’s founders led conservative, methodical and calculated lives in the financial industry. Then, in 2003, they followed their hearts and bullishly invested everything into the wine industry. A term used over and over again by their colleagues on Bay Street and Wall Street inspired the Laughing Stock name.

More than two decades later, Laughing Stock, nestled in the Naramata Bench in the Okanagan, is no laughing matter. It delivers exceptional and expressive wines in super premium, small production batches that rival some of the best in the region and abroad. When consumers have a bottle of Laughing Stock, they know it’s a luxury wine that won’t fail to impress and will deliver exceptional quality.
