Episode description

Welcome to a special edition of Debt Free in 30. This week, instead of featuring one industry expert we're giving you four (including myself, of course). In today's show our panel of experts will answer questions on four recent issues within the personal finance realm. Each expert brings something different to the table, which gives us a well rounded view at these issues from all angles.

Today's guests are Barton Goth, a Licensed Insolvency Trustee. Barton is joining us today from Edmonton, Alberta where he owns and operates his firm Goth & Company. We have personal finance expert Robert Brown, author of Wealthing Like Rabbits joining us from Ajax, Ontario. Lastly, we have my Hoyes Michalos co-founder Ted Michalos joining me here at our head office in Kitchener, Ontario.

Today we discuss four stories in the news:

  1. Walmart vs. Visa
  2. CIBC Survey: Will Canadians Pay Down Their Debt in 2017?
  3. Bank of Canada Issues Warning to Consumers
  4. Paid Promotion and Financial Advice
