I firmly believe that it’s never too late – and certainly never too early – to develop a successful financial life. I suggest teaching financial literacy from early childhood in the spirit of “give a person a fish she/he will eat for a day; teach them how to fish and they’ll eat forever”.
With the Family in Mind – Money Matters is somewhat like books on tape. I talk to you about:
ways to re-evaluate your relationship with your personal money and build solid financial habits
the mindset needed to successfully grow your money
why sustainable wealth building requires educating the next generation
why inquiring parents want to know how they can start banking on their child’s future by jumpstarting them to thinking money smart
how to adjust to a lifestyle you never thought would happen
family economics derailed by divorce or widowhood
I often describe these 90-second to two minute radio features as “the first step on the financial education food chain”. They are committed to helping each member of your family become better financially educated. I look at money as a family affair through a three generation lens where cooperative economics (family finances) must be taught and practiced; multiple goals and needs met; and good money habits put in place and used consistently.
My message to you is positive and hopeful. It outlines specific suggestions regarding how you and your family can create a secure financial future based on making informed decisions today. In doing so, you’ll become a producer of wealth rather than a consumer of debt.
