  • A baby or financial security: Who can still afford to have kids?
    Nov 3 2026

    Having kids hasn’t been cheap for a long time. But with the cost of living so high, is starting a family becoming something only well-off Canadians can afford?

    New research from Statistics Canada suggests that income is playing a bigger role in who becomes a parent. In this episode, we hear from two mothers who want another child but are struggling with the financial realities of growing their families. We also speak with chartered professional accountant Janine Rogan about why job security plays a big role in that decision, the hidden costs of parenthood, and how to know when you’re financially ready for a baby.

  • Influencing looks glamorous. But does it pay the rent?
    Oct 27 2026

    When you scroll through Instagram and TikTok, influencing can look like easy money. But how much do Canadian content creators actually earn, and can they afford to leave their day jobs?

    In this episode of Stress Test, we speak with three Canadian influencers about their finances, from a full-time food creator earning six figures to a nurse making tens of thousands of dollars a year from a social media side hustle. They break down what brands pay, what it costs to create content and why a big following doesn’t always mean a big paycheque.

  • Is 40 too old to buy your first home?
    Oct 20 2026

    As more Canadians buy homes later in life, homeownership is increasingly competing with another major financial goal: saving for retirement.

    We meet two Canadians who bought their first homes in their 40s to learn why they waited, how they made it happen and whether they have any regrets. Then, Meera Raman speaks with certified financial planner Adam Jenkins about the risks of buying later in life and how to balance mortgage payments with retirement savings.
