The question we get most often from readers is usually some variation of this: How do I even begin managing my money and saving for the future? Every Canadian is on a different financial path, so we thought the best way to approach such a complicated question was to cram every answer we could think of into a flowchart. Of course, money isn't one-size-fits-all, so you should only follow these steps if they make sense for you! But consider this a TLDR-approved guide to all things wealth-building, designed with time-tested financial principles in mind.
