David Chilton is the author of The Wealthy Barber, Canada's all-time bestselling book. His unique combination of knowledge and humour helped to take the intimidation and dryness out of financial planning. Chilton's speeches aren't about just money. They're about believing in yourself, overcoming mistakes (many of his are truly hilarious) and, most importantly, they're about perspective – the missing ingredient in many people's lives. We asked Dave to speak to 500 of our clients a few years ago.

The Wealthy Barber: A Truly Unique Perspective
Bestselling author, entrepreneur and financial guru David Chilton shares his unique perspective on life with audiences. Dave has experienced both success and failure.

The Wealthy Barber: The Common Sense Guide to Successful Financial Planning
The book The Wealthy Barber has accomplished a "publishing impossible" by selling over 2 million copies in North America. More than ten years after it was first published it still appears regularly on bestseller lists. The reason for its sustained popularity? It provides financial education in an entertaining and understandable format.
The Wealthy Barber is not full of new techniques, complex strategies, nor get-rich-quick-or-even-semi-quick schemes. Instead it focuses on the financial planning basics that, over time, have proven to be effective. It's primarily common sense—common sense that, unfortunately, in our society is not common knowledge. By using a "novel" format and strong doses of humour, Chilton has taken the intimidation and boredom out of the financial-education experience. Dave's speech delivery does not fit the stereotype of a dry financial expert. The Chicago Sun-Times said it most succinctly when they stated "Chilton is charming, unpretentious and funny."
