FI for Kids
A weekly podcast for parents who want to guide their kids on the path to financial independence and extraordinary lives. Join us for wide-ranging conversations about teaching kids the habits and skills they need to reach financial independence and retire early. Combining basic financial smarts with self-knowledge, guide your kids to create lives that bring them deep fulfillment and joy. We bring you insightful interviews with financial experts, parents, behavioral experts, kids, and those that have achieved F.I. (financial independence) in their 30s, 40s, and 50s simply by working regular jobs, being smart with their money, and prioritizing the things in life that they value most.
