Justin Thouin “Coaches” us all on Lowestrates.ca, Entrepreneurship, and Financial Literacy‪.‬ Stocks Not Sports

    • Investing

What does it mean to be a successful entrepreneur? Kenrick is joined by Justin Thouin, Co-Founder at LowestRates.ca, to discuss his journey as an entrepreneur and how the company he started, LowestRates.ca, is saving billions of dollars for Canadians on car insurance, mortgages and more. They dissect the different kinds of entrepreneurs (innovator, imitator, large, small, scaleup, social, etc.) and whether entrepreneurs are typically problem solvers or risk-takers. Justin also addresses an article he wrote five years ago, "Canadians need to admit that they have a financial literacy problem”, and discusses an insightful avocado toast analogy when it comes to saving money on car insurance. As household debt continues to swell, are most Canadians still financially illiterate or can financial education help us all better manage our day-to-day expenses?

RESOURCES:
- Millennials, Don't Feel Bad About Drinking Lattes Or Eating Avocado Toast
- Top 6 Reasons New Businesses Fail
- Seven Characteristics Of Successful Startup App Entrepreneurs
