I’ve been waiting 10 years to do this interview. Like so many other Canadians, reading David Chilton’s first book, The Wealthy Barber, is what got me started on my personal finance journey. I learned about paying yourself first, automating your banking, and investing early, and I’m much richer now for it (thanks Dave!). But who knew his book would also propel me into my current career as a financial educator and that one day I’d be able to have him on the podcast to talk to him face-to-face.
Since the world looks a lot different now compared to 1989 when his book was first released, he’s back with a fully updated version for a new generation, The Wealthy Barber: The Fully Updated All-Time Canadian Classic. Although the fundamentals have stayed the same, some of his advice has changed over time, which is why if you read his original, it’s time to read this updated version. So listen, take notes, and I hope this episode inspires you to get started on your personal finance journey too.
