Description

For Financial Literacy Month, Simon dives into one of the most overlooked parts of investing: freeing up cash flow. From understanding what your true inflation rate is to identifying high-impact savings in your budget, this episode is all about practical ways to improve your purchasing power and invest more even if your income hasn’t kept up with rising costs.

Simon shares how he cut his own internet bill in half, how to negotiate with Canadian telcos, the smartest places to trim spending, and two simple questions he uses to avoid impulse purchases. Small changes can compound massively over time, and this episode shows exactly where to start.
