This month on The Mortgage Show on CKNW, we had the privilege of interviewing David Chilton, author of The Wealthy Barber. I first read his book at 17, and his common-sense approach to money continues to help Canadians build confidence in a time where everything costs more. We discussed simple strategies that can make a real difference, including: – Saving and investing using the FHSA, TFSA, RRSP, RESP and RDSP – How a 5% down payment and 30-year mortgage can be a smart starting point – When debt consolidation through your mortgage may improve cash flow – Why living at home longer can be a financial advantage – The importance of protecting income with the right insurance Whether you’re planning a purchase, a renewal, a debt reset, or helping a young adult get started, this conversation is worth sharing.
