One big common misconception is that you have to have a ton of money to start doing cool things with your money, like growing it or giving it a direction, and that simply isn’t true. Some of the best money moves I’ve made is when I didn’t have a lot but I knew I needed to be really intentional and good things happened because I had a plan in place.

How to Talk to Kids About Money (with Gregg Murset)

Do you remember who talked to you about money?

For most of us, the answer to that question is no one, really. In fact, a recent study by Quicken revealed that one-third of adults said no one taught them about money when they were a child and in turn, are twice as likely to delay talking to their own children about money until they are 18 or older.

Frustrated by this, Gregg Murset, CEO of BusyKid, decided to find a better way to talk to kids about money. Using technology, Gregg created My Job Chart, the first electronic chore/allowance platform to take advantage of our modern digital society. I so wish I had this as a kid!

New podcast episode about how to talk to your kids about money

What You’ll Learn

  • Practical ways to talk to your kids, or anyone’s kids, about money
  • How to use technology to change the conversation and impact with kids
  • Money wisdom Gregg has learned from talking to his 6 kids about money
  • Why Gregg thinks we all need to pay attention to financial literacy
  • How to turn chores and an allowance into a savings account and stock investing
