awesome content!

I really appreciate the advice on raising kids to be smart with money. it makes so much sense not to focus on financing college, but instead on teaching responsibility early. It's all about setting them up for long-term success.

Great Resource

This book should be required for all 4th and 5th graders to listen to. The authors insight and explanations of more complex subjects that relates them to how kids can understand is great. I love the analogy of planting in the garden to saving as just one of the examples in this great book.
