Introduction
Learning about personal finance is a lot easier when you can consume the content in your medium of choice. For those of you who love Youtube, we bring you the list of the top 30 Canadian personal finance youtubers to watch in 2024. Adding these channels to your viewing rotation can vastly improve your knowledge in personal finance, budgeting, investing and more!
Criteria For Inclusion
My goal is to help Canadians Improve their financial Literacy, so included in this list are Canadian Youtubers who have published in the last six months whose content was broad-based enough to cover personal finance topics. There may be one or two included who are not as recent, but their content was strong, so I wanted to have them even if the latest video was a little older than six months.Â
I have grouped the Youtube channels into three main categories so you can select from the group you find most appealing.Â
