Today’s episode is a special one. I’m joined by someone who has shaped the way Canadians think about money for nearly three decades: Rob Carrick.
As a longtime personal finance columnist at The Globe and Mail, Rob has helped Canadians navigate housing bubbles, market crashes, and shifting economic realities with honesty and a deep respect for the everyday investor.
Now retired, or as he puts it, “re-wired”—Rob joins me to reflect on this next chapter and share his insights on the current state of personal finance in Canada.
In this episode, we explore:
- What led Rob to retire after nearly 30 years at The Globe and Mail
- The biggest shift he’s seen in how people think about money
- Whether home ownership is still a realistic goal for younger Canadians
- Why ETFs remain an underused investment tool
- What retirees need to know about drawing down their savings
- How to cut through the noise of online financial advice
- Rob’s future plans in this new phase of life
- Whether you're planning for retirement, building your portfolio, or just starting out, this episode offers clear, thoughtful insights from one of Canada’s most trusted financial voices.
