About Real Money Talk

Ratehub Staff
Real Money Talk is a Canadian personal finance podcast told featuring knowledgeable guests and hosts to ask the right questions.
Personal finance is rife with jargon, with seemingly impossible advice (don’t ever buy a latte; avocado toast is the reason you’re broke) from people who just don’t get it. They aren’t Millennials -- trying to get ahead against impossibly high home prices and seemingly insurmountable debt -- but we are. We may not be experts, but we know what questions to ask of our expert guests to get the answers you need. And we’re here to give you the real talk on all things money.
If you have a show idea or a guest you'd like us to feature on the Real Money Talk podcast, send us an email. We'd love to hear from you - [email protected]
