The Barber is closing shop.

Dave as always, you're the smartest guy in the room You see life & reality very clearly Thanks for all the good you've done for Canadians for 40 years And factually the nicest guy in the Business

A true Canadian legend. You’ve given much of your life to supporting financial literacy in our Country - and leave an incredible legacy.

Congrats legend. Enjoy retirement

David is a Canadian icon. Prediction… he’ll be back! Enjoy your time off.

Congrats Dave, well earned!

We will miss you! But your advice and impact spans generations and we all as Canadians owe you so much!

Congrats on your (upcoming) retirement and thank you for all of the great advice that you have imparted over the years

I want to thank you for your sound advice I first found in 1990, with the original book, and then the Wealthy Barber Returns, & now with the rebooted book! But the podcast is what I will miss the most! So insightful & appreciated! Thanks again Dave!

Thanks! Yes, the podcast guests have been amazing!

Thank you for everything David. The Wealthy Barber is one of my favourite books and has helped me and so many Canadians become more financially literate. Enjoy your retirement.

This Canadian’s financial future (along with the four others in my household!) is in MUCH better shape than it would be without you, Dave. In fact, our oldest turns 17 today, and one of his gifts over dinner will be TWB. THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU, and thanks to your team!

For the people I have never met, you have had the biggest impact on my life. The Wealthy Barber taught me life lessons over 20 years ago that I still use today and have served me extraordinarily well. Thank you David. Thank you very much

Very kind!

Actually, this is wildly sad for some us! Thank you for being transformational in my own personal finance journey. But congratulations all the same on your retirement and your first grandchild! Your presence & content will definitely be missed.

I hope you find a way to change gears, but keep driving. Your voice is very valuable in our society. Best wishes to you and your family, and to all your friends.

Congratulations Dave!! You have had, and will continue to have, a tremendous positive impact on the financial well being of Canadians. Enjoy your retirement filled with the joy of family and friends!

All the best. Live long and prosper. 🖖

You are a good man with your head and heart in the right places. 🥰 Continue to make the most of your life. 🎉

I saw you speak at our teacher's convention about 10 years ago, and wrote you an email telling you that the top 2 speakers I had ever seen was Jim Valvano and you. Thank you for everything. My one request is you do the @loonie_hour one more time.

@loonie_hour Would love to!

All the best, Dave. Enjoy the next phase!

Thanks, my friend!

I gave your recent book to my 15-year-old grandson for Christmas, hoping to guide him toward building good financial habits early in life.

Congratulations Dave. Probably the most practical book on saving and investing ever written and your podcasts are equally valuable and informative. Thank you have a great retirement. Hit em straight and enjoy!!

Best of luck. You've done great work to help Canadians (and countless others) become financially literate, which is sorely lacking these days.

You are the spark that got me into real estate so many years ago. Will still see you at Daily Grill. Appreciate all you have done. Your impact is greater than you can ever know.

Good for you Dave ! We've just sold our home in Wloo to move 2 hours south to Dunnville. Our son and grand kids moved there recently. 40+ years in the region and we're leaving to be closer to our family. I'm happy for you and I'm sure it'll be great ! Thanks for all your videos !

So, same, same!

Congratulations 🎉 a grandchild and good friends are wonderful reasons to retire!

Congrats on the decision and next move. Reading the Wealthy Barber 20+ years ago is a big reason I work as a financial planner today - thank you ever so much.

Talk about a well deserved and earned retirement! 👏🏻 Years of helping others with financial advice to better their own lives, I mean come of what a great journey!

You changed my family and I’s life David! Thank you for your public service ! We wish you the best in your endeavour! Happy Retirement!!

Best wishes David. I bought your book in the early 90s in my 20s. I sincerely wish our PM, MPs & MPPs had done the same. Sad to see huge deficits & generational spending destroy this great country.

Have a fantastic retirement Dave, it's well deserved!!

Good on you, Dave. Wishing you all the best. Now plenty of time to ruminate over the Lions' underperformance!

Congratulations, you helped mould my thoughts on personal finance.

This is a huge surprise, but I love it. What is a mind good for if you can’t change it? Congrats on the upcoming first grandchild! I have no doubt you are going to be the absolute best grandad. We will miss your great $$ advice. The best there is.

You're a good man Mr. Chilton. Thanks for your integrity. Enjoy retirement to the fullest.

Congratulations. I read your book way back in the 80s. Very sound advice that I can credit for a successful financial retirement. Thanks and enjoy! 🍻
