Dakota Live! Podcast: Investing Early with the Brooklyn Youth Charitable Investment Group

In this special release episode of the Dakota Live! Podcast, we sit down with Jasper Gould and Emile Chilingirian, co-founders of the Brooklyn Youth Charitable Investment Group (BYCIG), just as students in New York and across the country begin their spring break.

It’s a timely opportunity to pause, reflect, and start conversations that matter—like how we talk to our kids about money, investing, and making a difference.

Together, we explore how a student-led initiative is managing real investment portfolios, giving back through philanthropy, and showing that the path to financial literacy can (and should) start early—with support from families, schools, and communities.

This is a perfect episode to listen to together with your kids over the holiday break and spark meaningful discussions about money, responsibility, and the world around them.
