The Wealthy Barber’s New Edition: David Chilton’s Smart Tips on Saving, Debt & Side Hustles
Episode 284
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025
In this episode of Moolala: Money Made Simple, Bruce dedicates a full hour to personal finance legend David Chilton, author of The Wealthy Barber. Nearly four decades and millions of copies later, Chilton has fully updated his Canadian classic for a new generation facing soaring housing costs, ubiquitous credit and constant social-media-fueled temptation. He shares the story behind the original book, why he chose a barbershop narrative, how he self-published before it was cool, and what really happened when Canada Trust and Costco helped turn The Wealthy Barber into a phenomenon. Bruce and David also talk about family, travel, homeschooling, and what it was like for his kids to grow up with “the Wealthy Barber guy” as their dad. Then, they dig into the money lessons that still matter most: paying yourself first, crushing high-interest debt, using spending summaries to spot the leaks, and why car costs are quietly wrecking so many budgets. David explains how small daily changes can add up to fully funding a TFSA, why side hustles can be a game-changer, and how high-fee products still undermine long-term returns. He also looks ahead to the future of money, from AI and employment to open banking, and shares the one change he wishes every Canadian would see: practical, engaging financial education for teens that actually sticks.
