News: The Wealthy Barber Reboots!

RobHLeave a comment

Thanks to the Canadian Financial Summit, I learned that David Chilton, aka The Wealthy Barber, has completely revamped his book and it’s scheduled to be released on November 4th, 2025.

David’s original book had a massive influence on me when I read it, um, back in 19891?

A lot has changed since then:

  • The invention of the low-cost ETF structure (I’m a fan)
  • The creation of the TFSA and FHSA
  • Online everything: brokers, banks, and research

The new edition will (per the author) echo the conversational tone of the original, so it’s a great read for new investors, too. Consider buying a copy for yourself or your children2!

I haven’t myself attended this summit before, but it appears to have a very strong lineup and interesting topics. And, good for the cheapskates among us, free if you watch the prerecorded content up to 48h after it’s posted.

It kicks off tomorrow with my hero, David Chilton, aka The Wealthy Barber. Also featured, another great speaker (who I thought was retired), Rob Carrick.
