About the show

For What It’s Worth with Rubina Ahmed-Haq is a one-hour radio show airing across Canada every weekend. We cover personal finance and workplace stories that matter to everyday Canadians, and how this story affects our pocketbook. It could be the latest interest rate numbers and how your mortgage payments have changed or what to do if you win the lottery. The goal is for listeners to walk away after every show thinking I learned something new about my money today.
