1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: She's on the Money. She's on the Money. 2 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome to She's on the Money, the podcast 3 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 2: for millennials who want financial freedom. As we've learned over 4 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: the journey of this podcast, our money stories are largely 5 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 2: influenced by the way we were brought up and by 6 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 2: the example that was set for us by our parents. 7 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 2: Maybe they were tired on cash so we've learned to 8 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 2: become really good savers. Or maybe we had everything handed 9 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: to us growing up, so we've never really understood the 10 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: value of money. No matter your story, it's really hard 11 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: to deny that the people who brought us up play 12 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: a huge part in our relationship with finance. So how 13 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 2: can we teach our kids about money so they understand 14 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: the basics before they're out in the real world. My 15 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: name is Georgia King, and joining me to help answer 16 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: these questions and plenty more is financial advisor Victoria divine V. 17 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 3: Hello, Hi, tool. 18 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,279 Speaker 2: Why is it so important that we make an effort 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 2: to teach our kids about money before they're all grown up? 20 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: Because I said. 21 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 3: So, No, it's super important to be teaching our kids 22 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 3: about money because that's where our money story comes from. 23 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 3: Our money story, and I've said this on the podcast, 24 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 3: and I'm sure it'll come up a lot in this episode. 25 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: Our money story starts to solidify at the age of seven, 26 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 3: which means we need to be learning about money. 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 2: Far before school, far before. 28 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 3: We actually start using money and start actually earning it ourselves. 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 3: So it makes a lot of sense that if you're 30 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 3: a parent or you're in charge of some children, you 31 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: start teaching them good money habits young, because they usually 32 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 3: start in the home. So it's one of those things 33 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 3: where you know, it's a little bit fickle, and there's 34 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: no such thing as right or wrong when it comes 35 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 3: comes to money. And I'm sure we'll get into the 36 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: grand debate of pocket money very shortly, Georgia. 37 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: But at the end of the. 38 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 3: Day, unfortunately, our money story starts before we get to school. 39 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 3: And then on top of that, I believe that the 40 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 3: school system is letting us down when it comes to 41 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: teaching us holistically about money. So it kind of falls 42 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 3: back onto us to do that job. 43 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: For anyone brand new to the podcast week, can you 44 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: just give us a little refresher on what money stories 45 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 2: actually are. 46 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 3: So, money stories are the thoughts that values, the beliefs, 47 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 3: and the behaviors that you hold to be true around money. 48 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: So these are the things that have been ingrained in 49 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: you since the very beginning. So if you grew up 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 3: in a family where money was really tight, maybe you 51 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 3: get a little bit of a sick feeling in the 52 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 3: bottom of your stomach every single time someone mentions money 53 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 3: or splitting the bill. But if you grew up in 54 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: a family where money was in abundance, maybe you've never 55 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 3: worried about money and you slipped really easily into debt 56 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: because you grew up with credit cards around you. They're 57 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 3: really easy to use. You just tap and go right. 58 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 3: There's no form of repercussion around that. So money stories 59 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: are the things that are ingrained in us, and they 60 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 3: are made up of, as I said, the thoughts, the values, 61 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: the beliefs, and the behaviors. But when it comes to 62 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 3: money stories, your beliefs and your values are two very 63 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 3: different things. So your beliefs are the things that are 64 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: ingrained in you and you've grown up with. Then you 65 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: might believe that money is evil, or you might believe 66 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: that money is inherently bad, But your value around money 67 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: is creating wealth. So therefore there's a bit of a 68 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: disconnect in your beliefs, and then your values, because you 69 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 3: value creating wealth and investing and you really want to 70 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: do that, but inherently you feel a little bit sick 71 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: about money because your belief underlyingly is that money is 72 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: bad and investing is bad, and it might be related 73 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: to greed. So we really need to work through these 74 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: two things and actually be able to separate them out 75 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: and understand where our beliefs have come from and challenge 76 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: our own beliefs to say, Georgia, that belief you hold, 77 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: is it actually true? And if it is true, is 78 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: it something that you grow? What are we actually aiming 79 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 3: for here? And a lot of this is going to 80 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 3: be picked up in early childhood, so it's not something 81 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: we choose. It's not ever our fault, but our money 82 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: story is ingrained. But the thing that is really cool 83 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 3: about money stories is that you can change them. So 84 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 3: we can't change the past, but we sure as hell 85 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 3: we can change the future, and we can create the 86 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 3: money story that we want to align to. So for me, 87 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 3: that's why talking about money with kids and talking about 88 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 3: it from the very beginning is so important. 89 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 2: So from an overarching perspective, then, V, what would you 90 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,799 Speaker 2: say the main money. Lessons that we should be imparting 91 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: on our kids are so. 92 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 3: First things first, I think the value of money and 93 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 3: all of the things that I'm going to say right 94 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: now are going to be a lot easier said than 95 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 3: they are done. Because as much as you can say, oh, 96 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 3: it's so important to teach your kids about the value 97 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 3: of money, okay, how like that is something that is 98 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 3: so hard, and it's also so hard in an economy 99 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 3: we're in twenty t twenty one. Everything is card based. 100 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 3: We aren't really a cash society like historically we were. 101 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 3: Whereas you know, I'm not that old, I don't think. 102 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: I mean a lot of our listeners would probably look 103 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 3: at me and be like, oh, my gosh, thirty, she 104 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 3: is ancient. But that is not the case at all. 105 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: But I remember when I was younger and we're on 106 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 3: school holidays and Mum would give us like two dollars 107 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: and we'd get two dollars each, my sister and I 108 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 3: and we go down to the shops in Tazzi and 109 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 3: we'd get two dollars worth of hot chips together, and 110 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 3: then we'd go halves because that was dollar each for 111 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 3: hot chips, and then we'd have a dollar for lollies, 112 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 3: And I mean we probably didn't get as many lollies 113 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 3: as my parents got if they ever had a dollar 114 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 3: to spend at the shops. But at the end of 115 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 3: the day, I remember learning the value of money and 116 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 3: what it could get for me and the fact that 117 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: I could exchange money for goods or services, and for me, 118 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: that was a really big part of my life. And 119 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 3: as time goes on, I started to learn the value 120 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: of you know, saving up for a top that I 121 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 3: really wanted from Seprey, which had like the see on it, 122 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 3: Like yeah, it was iconic, and I really wanted those 123 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 3: big belts like do you remember the Like yeah, they 124 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 3: were made of stretchy material. They were horrendous. 125 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: They were heinous, but they were heinous, stunning at. 126 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 3: The time, stunning, like supreme. I would wear them to 127 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: the roller disco. But I started to learn the value 128 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 3: of money because I realized it could help me get 129 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: the things that I wanted. But it's really hard to 130 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 3: teach kids about the value of money now because again 131 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 3: it's just tap So we need to be a little 132 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 3: bit more creative. We need to be able to start 133 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 3: to impart these things on a more regular and ongoing basis. 134 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: I think another thing that is really important to teach 135 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 3: kids is budgeting and what that actually means, and not 136 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 3: teaching them that it is something that restricts us, but 137 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 3: rather something that helps us align our values and our 138 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: goals to what we're trying to achieve. So maybe that 139 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 3: is sharing with the kids what grocery shopping looks like, 140 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 3: and this is the budget we have, and how are 141 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: we going to allocate that, and can we actually get 142 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: these snacks that they in budget or are they not. 143 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 3: It's not necessarily about teaching kids that we can't afford that, 144 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 3: And I mean that's a really valid lesson as well. 145 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, usually a budget 146 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 3: is not about we can't afford that, but rather we're 147 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 3: not prioritizing that, and why and what are we prioritizing 148 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 3: over that? And I might say to you, Georgia, those 149 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: fancy snacks are not actually in our budget at the moment, 150 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: because remember we were really trying to save to go 151 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 3: on that family holiday to the beach in a couple 152 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: of weeks. 153 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: Like don't forget, Like if. 154 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 3: We save the money now, we're going to be able 155 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 3: to do a few more fun things on that trip together. 156 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: And I think it's about really explaining to kids what 157 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 3: that means, because as a child and as someone who 158 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: doesn't fully comprehend the value of money, they're going, well, 159 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 3: why not, why are you personally stopping me from getting 160 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 3: something I want? And it's not about that. It's actually 161 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 3: about them understanding how money works and teaching them about 162 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 3: gratification and what delayed gratification could look like, because that's 163 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 3: the thing that's actually going to serve them well into 164 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 3: their future. I think also work ethic comes into this 165 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: as well, when you're talking about saving and budgeting and money, 166 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 3: explaining to them where money comes from, the fact that 167 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 3: you works really hard for that and that you are 168 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 3: trading your time for money. And I think that that's 169 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: why I'm such a positive advocate of pocket money. And 170 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: I know that it's a very topical conversation because some 171 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: people don't believe in it. Some people do, whereas I'm 172 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: more of the opinion that you do need to give 173 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 3: kids a level of responsibility so that they can learn 174 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 3: how to save themselves and they can learn how to 175 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 3: earn money, whether that's a set amount of chores or 176 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 3: a set amount of things or maybe there's a certain 177 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 3: amount that you pay them to wash your car. But 178 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 3: I do believe very inherently that pocket money is in exchange. 179 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 3: It's not paying your kids to exist. It's not paying 180 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 3: them because they should have their own income. It's paying 181 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 3: them because they might be doing something, and I think 182 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: it needs to be something. Again, this is all very personal, 183 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 3: and I'm not someone who has kids yet, so who knows. 184 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 3: Maybe in a few years when I have kids, this 185 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 3: will go out the window and my opinions will change. 186 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 3: But I think it's also not about contributing to the 187 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: household in general. So like Georgia, if you and I 188 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,239 Speaker 3: live together, I would fully expect you to be contributing 189 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 3: to the household. Like we used the dishwasher together, so 190 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: we have to empty the dishwasher together. It's above and 191 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 3: beyond tasks that are potentially rewarded with pocket money, if 192 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: that makes sense. Yep, Like I don't want to pay 193 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 3: you to do something you should have been helping me 194 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 3: with anyway. 195 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: Ah. 196 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: I think the final thing I really want to impart 197 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 3: on the younger generation or children is credit and what 198 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: that means, and not just teaching them that credit is good, 199 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 3: but rather the fact that it's not just a free 200 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 3: money tip, it is actually something that you're delaying, and 201 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: there's you know, implications of that. So teaching them the 202 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 3: value of saving for things and wanting them as opposed 203 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 3: to instant gratification. And I just feel like not enough 204 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 3: children and young people are taught the dangers of credit 205 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 3: and going into debt and what that actually means for 206 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 3: their financial future. Because also it's very hard to teach 207 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 3: someone about a financial future when they've never had any 208 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 3: emotive response to finances before. Like Jorgia, I could sit 209 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 3: you down when you were like twelve and try and 210 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 3: explain all these things and how dangerous it is, and 211 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 3: it's kind of like cool, mum, I'll hold your hand 212 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: while across the road if that's the rules. Like, they 213 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: just don't care as much because they've never had to 214 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 3: comprehend what that might mean. And I think that for 215 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 3: us as adults is really hard to comprehend because for 216 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: us it's often a really emotional conversation because we've been 217 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 3: through that, whereas the kid's kind of like, okay, can 218 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 3: I have my pocket money? And I've been getting through 219 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 3: that it's okay, But we really need to be ingraining 220 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 3: those things from the very beginning, not sitting them down 221 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: and being like, okay, cool, it's time to talk budgeting. 222 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 2: Okay. So the main lessons we've got the value of money, 223 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: how to save and budget, how to work hard, yes, 224 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 2: and how credit works. So those are the lessons we 225 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: want to instill in our kids. How do you actually 226 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: how do we teach them? Oh my gosh. 227 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 3: There are so many different ways to teach kids about money, 228 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 3: but probably the most important thing to do is highlight 229 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 3: that kids are little sponges and they are very likely 230 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: to follow what their parents do. And as you said, 231 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 3: Georgia in our very elaborate introduction today for this podcast, 232 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: money stories are so often informed by the way that 233 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 3: we're brought up, and you cannot, you literally cannot underestimate 234 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 3: the influence that you can have on your kids. Like 235 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 3: at the end of the day, as I said, they 236 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 3: are tiny little sponges, and they are going to soak 237 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 3: up your values, your beliefs, the things that you want 238 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 3: to do, whether they are good or bad. They're going 239 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: to take on your tone of voice, they are going 240 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 3: to take on the things that you know you hold. 241 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: To be true. 242 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 3: So I think the hardest thing about this, and teaching 243 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 3: your kids about money is actually the confrontational piece. That means, hey, gee, 244 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: if you're going to teach your future kids about money, 245 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: you've got to be pretty comfortable with it yourself. You 246 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: need to be on top of your budget, you need 247 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 3: to be on top of your cash flow. You've got 248 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 3: to be comfortable teaching this because if you're inherently not 249 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: doing the right thing for you, how are you going 250 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 3: to impart on somebody else these values that you hold 251 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 3: to be so important. So, Georgia, with all of that 252 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 3: in mind, I think the most important thing here is 253 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 3: to just be really conscious of your personal behaviors around 254 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 3: money and remember that little people and their little eyes 255 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 3: are literally always watching, and that your actions are often 256 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 3: speaking louder than your words are. So you could tell someone, hey, Georgia, 257 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 3: like it's really important to budget. But then if you're 258 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 3: not doing that yourself, you're not exactly showing them how 259 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 3: to model that behavior, like, you are not showing them 260 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: that those are the right steps to be taking. You're 261 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 3: saying one thing and doing another. And I promise kids 262 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 3: do really pick up on that. So as kids get 263 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 3: older and have more comprehension of money and how it 264 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 3: actually works. On a base level, You could actually start 265 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 3: involving them in your money management, which can be really 266 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 3: confronting because, as I said before, involving somebody else in 267 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 3: your money management is only going to be something that 268 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: you're comfortable with if you are comfortable with your own 269 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 3: money management at the beginning, Whereas if you're spiraling out 270 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: of control, the last thing you need is a thirteen 271 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 3: to sixteen year old coming in and being like, what 272 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 3: are you doing with your money? Like I would simply 273 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 3: pass away. So I think the most important thing here 274 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: is really understanding yourself and your money story so that 275 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 3: you can start to pass that down a generation, which 276 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 3: is actually really special. And when I say involve them 277 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 3: in your money management, that could mean a number of things. 278 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: So it could just be the money conversations around the 279 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 3: dinner table that you're going to start having. It could 280 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 3: also be involving them in grocery shopping. And I say 281 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 3: this a lot because it's actually a really easy way 282 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: to segment a part of money management off from the 283 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 3: bigger picture that has a number of different complex decisions 284 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 3: that need to be made while still having a more 285 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 3: rist ri did budget. If you were my daughter, I 286 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: might go all right, Georgia, like, I'd love for you 287 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: to help me with the money management around the supermarket. 288 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 3: And then you've got to make decisions around how we 289 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: allocate that. So we're not talking about just going and 290 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: buying food. We're like, okay, have we got breakfast lunches 291 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: and dinners? If kids go to school, have we got 292 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 3: stuff for school lunch boxes? If we're having dinners? Has 293 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: everybody's dietary needs been taken into consideration? You are now 294 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 3: going to realize very quickly how expensive meat is. So 295 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 3: how much of our budget are we going to allocate 296 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: towards that? And you know, are we going to have 297 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 3: a fancy takeaway dinner maybe once a week or is 298 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: that actually not something that's within our budget? Do we 299 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: need to do that once every two weeks? So, grocery shopping, 300 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: as much as it's a simple task for an adult, 301 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 3: more often than not, it's actually more of a complex 302 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: process for a child or an adolescent who maybe has 303 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: never experienced that, never comprehended how much a piece of 304 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 3: roast is. And so for me, I think that that's 305 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: a really powerful thing. But also when you're doing that, 306 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: you need to be really open to their insights and 307 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 3: their feedback, so not just telling them how you're doing it. 308 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 3: Maybe they could come up with a creative idea to 309 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 3: lower the budget. Maybe they're going to suggest, oh, well, actually, mum, 310 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 3: I've been thinking we could do like a meat free Monday, 311 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 3: and on Mondays we do like meat free tacos. I 312 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 3: think that that could be a really creative way for 313 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 3: them to get involved but also feel like they're having 314 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: an impact. And it's so important to make sure that 315 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 3: if you're going to involve your children in the money 316 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 3: management of your home, you're not just doing it at 317 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 3: a token level. 318 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 2: I feel like that's a really hands on way of 319 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 2: getting the kids involved as well, and it also kind 320 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: of teaches them how marketing works as well. Like when 321 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 2: you're in the supermarket and there's all the sales on 322 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: some you can definitely take advantage of if that's something 323 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: you were going to buy anyway, but you can also 324 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: learn how to resist those sales and resist two dollar 325 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,359 Speaker 2: chips in the basket, because. 326 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 3: That's actually a marketing tool. Yeah, back on to some 327 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: chips without money management. I think with kids, if you're 328 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: comfortable with it, and you want to involve your kids 329 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 3: in resetting your family budget as a whole. I think 330 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 3: it's really constructive to set your kids down and teach 331 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 3: them about your budget and get them involved in the 332 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 3: drawing up process of your budget and what income looks 333 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 3: like versus what expenses look like. That is absolutely not 334 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: for everybody, and that's why I'm always such a big 335 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 3: advocate of the grocery shopping part because it's such a 336 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: non confrontational way of teaching money management. But at the 337 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 3: same time, I think it's just so important for kids 338 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: to understand money management as a whole, and let's be honest, 339 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 3: the best way to do that is to actually get 340 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 3: into the nitty gritty of it and explain, Hey, this 341 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 3: is how much it costs to keep the lights on. 342 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 3: This is why your dad yells at you about the 343 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 3: heat of being on and that you need to just 344 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: put another pair of socks on. Like Like when I 345 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 3: was young, I just had no comprehension of what that 346 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 3: meant except for quote, through electricity bill was expensive. So 347 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 3: I think really getting kids to understand what that means 348 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 3: and how that works, that's going to be really constructive 349 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 3: for them in the law. And then I guess to 350 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 3: add on to that when we're talking about things like 351 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 3: electricity and gas bills. If you're reviewing a bill, show 352 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 3: your children the bills and explain how essential items like 353 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 3: this need to be paid and how you do it 354 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 3: and what that process looks like, and how you actually 355 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 3: go and review a better deal. Where do you look 356 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 3: for that? Why would you look for that? I promise 357 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 3: you children will be so much more interested than you 358 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 3: think they'll be, and it's for exactly the same reasons. 359 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 3: A child likes to not play with their toys, and 360 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 3: they're really interested in your makeup as opposed to you know, 361 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 3: what they've got in front of you. They just have 362 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 3: yearning for learning. I think it's really important to embrace 363 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 3: that as well. So in terms of being a little 364 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 3: bit more hands on, especially for the younger kids, having 365 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 3: piggybanks is a really good idea so that they can 366 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 3: pop their pocket money or their tooth fairy money or 367 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 3: coins that they're found in there and actually have a 368 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 3: tangible way of tracking those. And as I said before, 369 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 3: credit cards. We want to start education on this really early, 370 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 3: so explaining how cards work, debit cards, credit cards, all 371 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 3: of the cards work, and in the age of tap 372 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 3: and go, it's just so much harder for us to 373 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 3: grasp the concept of money and the value of money, 374 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 3: let alone for small kids who have potentially never seen 375 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 3: you take money out to pay for groceries from the ATM. 376 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 3: So teaching them about cash and how cards work and 377 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: what that balance looks like is really important. 378 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: How do you do that? VD? Because Hailey in our 379 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 2: group actually asked about this, she's in a completely digital household, 380 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 2: as most of us are. If you don't have cash, 381 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 2: how do you teach your kids? 382 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 3: So I think it goes back to really explaining to 383 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 3: them what mum and dad go to work for? What 384 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 3: mom and mom or dad and dad or just dad 385 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 3: or just mum goes to work for. Why do you 386 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,199 Speaker 3: go to work to earn an income? And why do 387 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 3: we need an income and what does that mean and 388 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 3: how does that work? And explaining to them maybe, hey, 389 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 3: mom does the budgeting and this is how we filter 390 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 3: our money and on this card is about three hundred dollars. 391 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 3: When we are going to the grocery shops, we want 392 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 3: to make sure that all of our groceries come to 393 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 3: below that, otherwise we're not going to be able to 394 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: pay for them. So I think teaching kids about the 395 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 3: transaction and about what that means and what actually sits 396 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 3: behind it is really important. And don't be afraid to 397 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 3: go back to a money system. Don't be afraid to 398 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: go you know what, we're completely digital. Yes, it is 399 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 3: a little bit harder because you're going to have to 400 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 3: get some cash out. And the worst thing ever is 401 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 3: when you go to an ATM, you're going to have 402 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 3: to get cash out and it's always notes. You're not 403 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 3: able to get change out like it's just a bit 404 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 3: of a fickle process. But I promise you that paying 405 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 3: your kids in cash and actually teaching them that way 406 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 3: is going to be far more constructive. Again, there are 407 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 3: a number of banks that have kids debit cards, so 408 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 3: you could absolutely do that and teach them about the 409 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 3: balance on that and what is being contributed to that 410 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: and how that works and how they can check their balances. 411 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 3: I think could also be really helpful. 412 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 2: Do you know how old you need to be to 413 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 2: have a card as a trunck? 414 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 3: So there are lots of different options. I know there's 415 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 3: a company called zap and also another option is Spriggy, 416 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 3: which is essentially just a pocket money card, and kids 417 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 3: from the age of six to seventeen can have those. 418 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,959 Speaker 3: It's going to be always managed by a parent at 419 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 3: an upholding level because obviously they don't have complete transactional authority. 420 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, there are really 421 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 3: specific cards that you can get to teach your kids 422 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 3: about money, and they actually often have apps that go 423 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 3: along with them so that kids can start looking at 424 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 3: their balances and seeing what's going on. But still as 425 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 3: a parent, it gives you the ultimate authority, which is 426 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 3: quite nice, so you can always do that. I think 427 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 3: there's a lot of different options, and to be honest, 428 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,159 Speaker 3: every family does money differently, so not every option is 429 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 3: going to fit your circumstances. But if Hayley wants to 430 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 3: start teaching her kids about money and not actually do 431 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 3: the cash thing, going and getting a card like a 432 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 3: Spriggy card could be a really great way about going 433 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 3: about it, so that their pocket money could go onto 434 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 3: there and they can start track that and understanding what 435 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 3: is there and comprehending how to spend and save and 436 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 3: donate that. So I think that that's another really important 437 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: point as well, because we're not just spending We're not 438 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 3: just saving. There are actually a lot of different buckets 439 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 3: we need kids to consider, because as life goes on, 440 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 3: it's not always just about saving your pocket money. Like 441 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 3: we might save a certain percentage, we might donate a 442 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 3: certain percentage. We might want to actually start teaching our 443 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 3: kids what investing means, but then also teaching them what 444 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: they can spend so that when they do become an adult, 445 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 3: they don't have that guilt associated with spending money. 446 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: Okay, you mentioned pocket money there visa and it has 447 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: come up a few times already today. Are you a 448 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 2: fan or massive fan? 449 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 3: Not? 450 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: Okay, tell me why massive fan. 451 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 3: Everybody does this differently, and I don't want you to 452 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 3: think that because I'm a financial advisor this is the 453 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 3: right way. Again, every family does money differently. I think 454 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 3: from my perspective, it is really great tool that children 455 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 3: have to work for and then they're rewarded for the 456 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: work that they're doing, as you would in the quote 457 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: real world. I've seen lots of different examples of the 458 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 3: ways families allocate money and to allocate pocket money, and 459 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 3: you know, all away from people just giving their kids 460 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 3: a certain amount per week to you know, people going 461 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 3: all right, well, if you do your chores, you will 462 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 3: get that too. People going, you know what, it's only 463 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 3: extracurricular activities. So if you go and wash my car, 464 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 3: for example, then I will pay you to do that, 465 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 3: and there's no set pocket money. And then I've also 466 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 3: heard of families and I have a client that does this, 467 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 3: that pays their child a certain amount per week to 468 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 3: go to school. So I'm not saying that that's a 469 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 3: lot of money by any stretch of the imagination. I 470 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 3: think that they get like maybe it's like it does 471 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 3: seem like a lot of money. Actually their kid is 472 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 3: a teenager and they get fifty dollars a week. Well, 473 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 3: the way that this family has decided to teach their 474 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 3: child about money is mom and dad go to work 475 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 3: to earn money. And your job right now as a 476 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 3: teenager is to go to school and earn money and 477 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 3: get good grades. And that is your job as a teenager. 478 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: So we will pay you to do that job so 479 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 3: that you can still enjoy life on the weekends and 480 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 3: not do that. That is obviously something that's not going 481 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 3: to be financially accessible for a lot of people, but 482 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 3: I can see where they're going with it, and their 483 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 3: child seems to be really receptive to the fact that 484 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 3: they're like, Okay, cool, I'm going to treat my school 485 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 3: as a job. Mom and dad go to work every day. 486 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: I go to school every day, and I get paid. 487 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 3: If they don't go to school, they don't get paid. 488 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: If they don't have good performance, I eat good grades, 489 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 3: they don't get paid, Which makes sense because the real 490 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 3: world's a bit like that. So you know, each to 491 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 3: their own and at the end of the day, like 492 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 3: I grew up with pocket money, not a lot, and 493 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 3: again it's different horses for different courses, Like it is 494 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 3: definitely not one size fits all, and it's going to 495 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 3: be what suits your family. But at the crux of this, 496 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 3: my push is not necessarily saying you need to be 497 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 3: paying your child pocket money, because that's not the case. 498 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 3: But I do believe you you absolutely need to be 499 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 3: teaching your child about money, and whether that means allocating 500 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 3: them some money of their own or not, it doesn't 501 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 3: actually matter. And I also think that if you're not 502 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 3: in the financial position to be giving your child pocket money, 503 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 3: that's fine. Do not feel guilty about that at all, 504 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 3: Like you are doing the best thing that you absolutely can, 505 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 3: and no child quote needs pocket money to learn good 506 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 3: money habits. They do not need that growing up to 507 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 3: become a well balanced human who can do money well. Don't, 508 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 3: for any amount of time think that this is a 509 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 3: necessary component. Again, completely personal decision, and I just don't 510 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 3: want people to think like, oh, like they're gonna have 511 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 3: to get pocket money to learn Absolutely not. There are 512 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 3: so many different ways that you can educate children on money, Georgia. 513 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 3: In terms of how much fee, I know it will 514 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 3: be individual for every person. Absolutely how much though is 515 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: like how much? Again, I don't think that there's a 516 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 3: right or a wrong, and I don't think that there 517 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 3: is a perfect amount. I think it's an amount that 518 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 3: you guys, as the parents or the guardians, you need 519 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 3: to make that decision, not me, not a financial advisor. 520 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 3: It's kind of like saying, hey, Georgia, how much should 521 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: I be spending on groceries? 522 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I don't know. 523 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 3: Like I think that there's no right or wrong, But Georgia, 524 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 3: this is probably more of a personal point. I don't 525 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 3: think kids should be getting paid to contribute to household 526 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 3: chores that they should just be doing anyway. So like, 527 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,719 Speaker 3: I don't think that kids should be paid to empty 528 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 3: the dishwasher, or clean up after the dog, or clean 529 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 3: their rooms. Like for me, that's a base of living 530 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 3: and existing in a home because we all should be 531 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 3: contributing to that home. Like if you live there, that's 532 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 3: also your responsibility. It's not the mum's job or the 533 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 3: dad's job to clean up after you. So I think 534 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: for me, it's about that above and beyond thing or 535 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 3: explaining to them what that is for. Or you might 536 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 3: just be giving your child money each week so that 537 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 3: they can learn about money, but it wouldn't be tied 538 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 3: to if you do those chores, Like those chores should 539 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 3: be a given regardless what age should we actively start 540 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 3: teaching our kids about money. 541 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 2: You should do it from birth. 542 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 3: No, that's a bit aggressive, but you best believe, Like, 543 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 3: wait until I have babies and they come out of 544 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: the womb and they'll be wearing like their female financial 545 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 3: empowerment happens from a very early age. But at the 546 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 3: end of the day, there's absolutely no right or wrong. 547 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 3: If you haven't done it yet, that's totally okay. There's 548 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 3: always time to start. There's no such thing as too late. 549 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,959 Speaker 3: But according to a PBS dot org article by the 550 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 3: age of three, kids can actually grasp the basic money concepts, 551 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 3: which kind of makes sense, Georgia, because kids love playing shops, right, Like, 552 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 3: I feel like even younger than that, they start really 553 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 3: comprehending what money gets you and that you swap it 554 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 3: for things, and that that makes sense. 555 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 2: But by the age of seven, there's. 556 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 3: A lot of research out there that says that your 557 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 3: money habits have started to solidify, and that your thoughts 558 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 3: and your values and your beliefs and your money story 559 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 3: has started to really set in. So there's no such 560 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: thing as too early, but there also isn't such thing 561 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 3: as too late. We can start at any point, but 562 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 3: the answer, I think Georgia that we are looking for 563 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 3: is now. And if you've never spoken to your child 564 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 3: about money before, even if you don't have children, which 565 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 3: a lot of people listening to this podcast are going 566 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 3: to be like me. They're going to be young women 567 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 3: or young people who don't have children yet. But it's 568 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 3: kind of in the back of your mind, Like I think, 569 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 3: it's all very complex, but at the end of the day, 570 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 3: for me, it's actually just about making a conscious effort 571 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 3: to teach kids about money and starting as soon as possible. 572 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 2: Alrighty guys, we will be back after a very short 573 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 2: break to chat through the importance of delayed gratification, and 574 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 2: we will also be hearing some of the Shoes on 575 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 2: the Money community's top tips for teaching your kids how 576 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 2: to manage money. So don't go anywhere, Okay, they back 577 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 2: into it. So Georgia in our group has asked about 578 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 2: not a plant question, no out of it. She's asked. 579 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 2: She's asked about the dolomites program. So basically they are well, 580 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 2: can you explain them how they actually work? 581 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 3: Okay, So, Georgia, Dolomites is a fickle topic. And if 582 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 3: you've read my book recently, you know I throw it 583 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 3: straight under the bus. And the reason I do is 584 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 3: because longitudinal studies, so studies that have taken place over 585 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 3: the long term, show that dolomites actually had absolutely no 586 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 3: impact on the levels of financial literacy of Australian school children, 587 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 3: which is something that is really disappointing but also really 588 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 3: kind of heartbreaking because we all thought with our little 589 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,719 Speaker 3: yellow check books and our names on the front and 590 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 3: that kind of like Pink pumba guy who is the 591 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 3: dolomites guy for CommBank, We thought that that was the 592 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 3: right thing for our children. But at the end of 593 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 3: the day, school banking programs like the Commonwealth Dolomites Program 594 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 3: have actually been booted from schools because they've been proven, 595 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 3: as I said before, to not have had any impact. 596 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, I think that 597 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 3: given it's now twenty twenty one and we've been able 598 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 3: to do these studies, things are coming into play and 599 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 3: things are coming into place that are more constructive that 600 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 3: are teaching children about money beyond having a little yellow 601 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 3: checkbook that they put money into. One of the things 602 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 3: that I really didn't like about the Dolomites program was 603 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 3: that it was run by a bank, and a lot 604 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 3: of that actually ended up in children taking up Combank 605 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 3: as their bank of choice purely because that was the 606 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 3: bank that they were exposed to for the longest period 607 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 3: of time. They already had their account, they were already 608 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 3: ready and set up, and when they decided to go 609 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: start their first job, of course they trotted on down 610 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 3: to Combank to open another bank account when they started 611 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 3: a job and wanted something beyond Dolomites, because that was 612 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 3: the only bank that they knew. So I think it 613 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 3: was a little bit predatory if I'm being honest, and 614 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 3: I don't think I'm the only one that thinks that. 615 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 3: But people like their bare what investor like Scott Papers 616 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 3: doing a really good amount of work in this space 617 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 3: about teaching kids about money and getting into schools, and 618 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 3: that is something that I would adore doing in the future, 619 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 3: but the opportunity hasn't arisen just yet. So if you 620 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 3: are listening and you are like, wow, I have the 621 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 3: ability to help you do that, betraya slide on into 622 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 3: my dms. But at the end of the day, I 623 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 3: don't think that they were that powerful, and I don't 624 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 3: think that they were productive. But that's why I'm such 625 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 3: an advocate of parents and guardians taking charge of teaching 626 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 3: kids about money, because there aren't a lot of programs 627 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 3: in schools that are actually helping do that at this 628 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 3: point in time. 629 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 2: So when our kids are older, be and they are 630 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 2: a little more autonomous, maybe they've started a part time job. 631 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 2: How can we guide them at that stage of their 632 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 2: adolescence without kind of controlling them and cramping their style. 633 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 3: Teach them about budgeting and cash flow. Honestly, I probably 634 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 3: should make a teenager's version of my budget and cash 635 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 3: program so that kids can go in and put in 636 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 3: their pocket money and see what's coming. Actually, like genius, 637 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 3: I'm going to do that. This is what I'm doing 638 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 3: after this episode. Like you think I'm going to do 639 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 3: work for the rest of today. 640 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 2: You're wrong. 641 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 3: I'm going to make a spreadsheet. But I think that 642 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 3: there's been a few things that have been really constructive, 643 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 3: and teaching kids about money is very different. But Maria 644 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 3: from our group, she actually had a really good idea 645 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 3: and her daughter got her first job at the age 646 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 3: of fifteen, and she helped her transfer half of her 647 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 3: earnings into a savings account that she didn't touch, while 648 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 3: the other half they decided that she could just have 649 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 3: fun with it. And now her daughter's actually seventeen and 650 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 3: she's actually bought a car. She paid for her learners 651 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 3: and her car lessons with that money, which I think 652 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 3: is a really great idea. And I think that this 653 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 3: is going to be different for everybody. And again personal opinion, 654 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 3: because Georgia, this is my podcast. I can say what 655 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 3: I want. I mean within reason and obviously with general 656 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 3: financial advice like legislation, but I would really love to 657 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 3: see people starting to do spend saving, investing, and donating 658 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 3: for kids, So teaching them the importance of investing, but 659 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 3: also teaching the importance of giving back, I think is 660 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 3: something that is a really beautiful learning that can be 661 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 3: taught from a really young age. And I'm very, very 662 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 3: lucky in that that was something I was taught from 663 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 3: a very young age. Like my mum, was always about 664 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 3: giving back and how we could do more. And I 665 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 3: think that that has now become ingrained in me. And 666 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,719 Speaker 3: I would say that that, you know, without putting too 667 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 3: many tickets on it, that's quite evident now in the 668 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 3: way that I function as a human. So I think 669 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 3: that that was a really good idea for a Maria. 670 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 3: But then I think it's also really important to not 671 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 3: be controlling. So it's not your money. It is not 672 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 3: your money to tell your child what to do with. 673 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 3: I think that we are here to give them all 674 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 3: the tools and resources and for them to then adapt 675 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 3: that to what they might want to do, because at 676 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 3: the end of the day, sometimes we just have to 677 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 3: learn from our own mistakes. So letting your kids spend 678 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 3: money their way while gently steering them in the right direction, 679 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 3: providing them with all the tools and resources that they need. 680 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 3: So hopefully by the time that they've reached the age 681 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 3: where they're going to be fully equipped to make good decisions, 682 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 3: they're able to make the right decisions. But if not, 683 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 3: as I said before, making mistakes while they're young and 684 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 3: they're actually supported financially by family is a really good 685 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 3: way to learn lessons that they're going to take with 686 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 3: them for the rest of their life. So I really 687 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 3: wouldn't be stressing too much the end of the day. 688 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 3: Like if your kid isn't putting money into savings and 689 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 3: they're fourteen, like, that is not the end of the day, 690 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 3: because I promise you at some point in the future 691 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 3: they're going to go, I really. 692 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 2: Want X, and you go, you can't afford it. 693 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 3: You didn't save for it, that's not an option, and 694 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: they'll go, oh, I wish i'd done that. So I 695 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 3: think it's just sometimes you need to let people make 696 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 3: their own mistakes. Even if you can see the right 697 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 3: answer straight in front of you, it doesn't mean they 698 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 3: have their clarity that you do. 699 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of like a good time to be 700 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: learning with that complete safety net if you're profession enough 701 00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 2: to have that safety. 702 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,479 Speaker 3: Net exactly, And like being short of money when you 703 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 3: are sixteen and living at home, and the implication of 704 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 3: that is that you can't go out with your friends 705 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 3: on the weekend. Is very different being twenty three out 706 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 3: in the world on your own renting and then finding 707 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 3: you don't have enough money to pay rent or put 708 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 3: food on the table. They're two very different things. And 709 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 3: I know where I would prefer people to be making 710 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 3: money mistakes. 711 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 2: So how do we resist the urge then v to 712 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 2: give our kids everything? Because you know, we want to 713 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,959 Speaker 2: set them up for this beautiful life. And if we're 714 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 2: if we have the finance to buy them everything they want, 715 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 2: what are the dangers in doing that? Why should we 716 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: resist doing that? 717 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 3: I think that this is, again, a really fickle conversation 718 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 3: to have, because I've been incredibly lucky with the types 719 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 3: of clients that I work with to have real diversity 720 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 3: in the people I work with. So I've got clients 721 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 3: who don't earn a lot, and I've got clients worth 722 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 3: literally hundreds of millions of dollars, And I think that 723 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 3: the one thing that they have in common, when they 724 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 3: have kids that are really good at money, it's actually 725 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 3: not about having handed them everything. You know, even if 726 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 3: you're worth one hundred million dollars, that doesn't mean that 727 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,479 Speaker 3: you are spoilt. And I think that spoil is very 728 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 3: different for different people, and I think it's more about 729 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 3: expectation and you know, not understanding parameters and limits and rules, 730 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 3: and I'm like, I'm very different when it comes to that. 731 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 3: But the one thing that they all have in common 732 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 3: is delayed gratification. They know that by sacrificing now, there's 733 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 3: a bigger, better something hanging out in the future that 734 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 3: they're going to be able to access. And at the 735 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 3: end of the day, that's what wealth creation is. If 736 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 3: we can actually teach ourselves delayed gratification and understand what 737 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 3: that means, and that means giving up a smaller something 738 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 3: now so that we can have a bigger, better something 739 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 3: in the future, I think that we can all be 740 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 3: better off. So when it comes to kids and wealth 741 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 3: and giving them what you want, I don't think it's 742 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 3: necessarily about going, no, well, we don't buy that for 743 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 3: our kids, Like, it's not actually about that. What it's 744 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,800 Speaker 3: about is actually just being balanced and having good money 745 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 3: conversations and teaching them the value of a dollar so 746 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: that when you do buy them their first car, if 747 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 3: that's what you're going to do, and that maybe that's 748 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 3: a gift, they comprehend that that's a really generous gift 749 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 3: and they understand that that's really impactful instead of expecting it. 750 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 3: So I think that there's you know, there's different ways 751 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 3: of doing it, and you know, not everybody's gifted a 752 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 3: car when they start to grow up. It's actually not 753 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 3: normal at all. And I remember growing up and you 754 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 3: grew up in the same location as me, Georgia, and 755 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 3: there was a very big difference between the kids that 756 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 3: I went to school with. For example, like I went 757 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 3: to school with kids who got gifted BMW's for Christmas, 758 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 3: and I also went to school with kids whose families 759 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 3: couldn't afford to put dinner on the table every single night. 760 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 3: So I think that there's no right or wrong way. 761 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 3: It's actually just about teaching people how to earn things 762 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 3: for themselves and what gratification means and the value of 763 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 3: a dollar. Because if you can teach all of that 764 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,919 Speaker 3: when it comes to expecting things, I almost almost guarantee 765 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 3: that the kids that understand those things, regardless of how 766 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 3: quote spoiled or looked after they are, they're going to 767 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 3: appreciate those things more than the kids that just expected 768 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 3: that that was going to happen. 769 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: All right. To finish off today, V, I thought it 770 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 2: would be nice to integrate the community into the chat. 771 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 3: Yes. 772 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 2: I actually reached out to them last week V to 773 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 2: ask how they teach their kids about money, and they 774 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 2: had so many good ideas, so I thought we'd just 775 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: run through I'm about faith. Thank you to everyone as 776 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: well who replied it was great to see so many 777 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 2: amazing ideas. So the first one was from Tony. Yes, 778 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 2: tell me all about it. So every Monday they have 779 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: their Monday money meal. Well, they sit down as a 780 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 2: family hand out their pocket money for their weekly jobs 781 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 2: and their overtime jobs. 782 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: Good time. 783 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 2: That's a good idea, cute. So they then distribute this 784 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,280 Speaker 2: money however they want into their savings and their spending, 785 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: so the kids have that autonomy there. Then they discuss 786 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: lots of things in regards to money, like their savings goals, 787 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 2: how extra hard work gets extra money, as well as 788 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 2: some life lessons thrown in their love that their number 789 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,439 Speaker 2: one rule is to never get a credit card, which 790 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 2: we love. And after eight weeks of money meals, they 791 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 2: both had saved enough money to get what was on 792 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 2: their big goal list, which was brand new bikes. So 793 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 2: that's a very wholesome idea. 794 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 3: They were a lot of overtime. Those kids were working hard. 795 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 3: But how cute is that? And I really like that. 796 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 3: That's something super simple that I think, regardless of what 797 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 3: our income is, we could all do. Like we can 798 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: all sit down and have a meal together. It doesn't 799 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 3: matter what that meal is and talk about money, and 800 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 3: I mean Monday money meal. That's pretty catchy. 801 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 2: I like it. 802 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 3: Tony's a genius. 803 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, sell that to someone. 804 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 3: What else have we got, Georgia King? 805 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 2: Okay, So the next one was from Samantha. So this 806 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,959 Speaker 2: was from her experience as a child. So she said, 807 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: as kids, we had a pocket money book each and 808 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 2: if we wanted to save our pocket money each week, 809 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 2: we would get something like a one dollar bonus for 810 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 2: that week we were investing precisely, so it was all 811 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 2: on paper. They'd have to ask mom and dad to 812 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 2: cash it out if they wanted to buy something, and 813 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 2: it really it made them think more about their spending 814 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 2: as they didn't have cash just laying around, and then 815 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 2: there was the benefit of increasing their balance faster. By 816 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 2: waiting a little bit longer to make that purchase delayed gratifications. 817 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 3: I love that, And that's a really good investment return 818 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,399 Speaker 3: because they guarantee you, like she wouldn't have been getting 819 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 3: paid one hundred dollars a week. A one dollar return 820 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 3: on a hundred bucks is good, but imagine that probably 821 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 3: like five. 822 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 2: Bucks a dollar return. 823 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 3: I will wait. That's great, thank you. 824 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 2: The next one here was from Larissa. Bit cheeky that 825 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 2: I threw this one in, but she said having the 826 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 2: Shoes on the Money podcast on the car radio when 827 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: they're in the cars messaging. I love that. 828 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,280 Speaker 3: I love that. Get at Larissa. 829 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 2: Next one is from Jamie. So she said they would 830 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 2: get loans from mom for the things they wanted to buy, 831 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 2: and then they'd have to pay her back. If they 832 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 2: were too far behind on their agreed repayments, then they'd 833 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 2: have to start missing out on the extra things like 834 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 2: going to see their friends or getting ice cream when 835 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 2: they were out. Really taught them the importance of repaying loans. 836 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 2: So that's a different Strategy's like cute. 837 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 3: I like that, and I know that I don't like 838 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 3: debt by any stretch of the imagination, but I think 839 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 3: that that's a really good lesson to learn early. Like 840 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 3: it's not something that I would want to promote all 841 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 3: the time because obviously I'd much prefer a child to 842 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 3: save for something that they really want, because that really 843 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 3: goes back to that delayed gratification and actually make sure 844 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 3: that they really want it. And Georgia, can you remember 845 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 3: when you were really little, it was like the anticipation 846 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 3: of Christmas, like you knew were coming. Like that's what 847 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 3: saving often feels like to children, because you're like, all right, 848 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 3: you want the bike, Like we can work towards it, 849 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 3: like it's x amount per week, and like you can 850 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 3: actually make saving really excited, like putting goal sheets on 851 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,399 Speaker 3: the fridge for their savings goals and like they get 852 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 3: to coloring a square each time they get it. And 853 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 3: back to the cash thing. You don't necessarily have to 854 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 3: pay them that cash. You could have a little checkbook 855 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 3: that you make. And this is actually inspiring the hell 856 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 3: out of me, Georgia, to make a whole heap of 857 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 3: resources for our community. Like imagine you know how we 858 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 3: have our little savings hacks for She's on the money 859 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 3: that our community members put on their fringe. Imagine if 860 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 3: there was kids once. 861 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 2: That's a great idea. 862 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 3: I'm going to do it. 863 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, confident. 864 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 3: What else did the community have to say? 865 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 2: Okay, so the last one is from Christie. So her 866 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 2: six year old really wanted a skateboard. 867 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:40,240 Speaker 3: That's terrified. 868 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 2: Can you imagine six year old on a skateboard. I 869 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 2: really don't know. I feel like from ages three to 870 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: eleven they're like the same to me. 871 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have no same same. 872 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 2: Sorry, Christy, show off. 873 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 3: The fact that we don't have children here. 874 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, So Christie's six year old wanted a skateboard. 875 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 2: Then they worked out some weekly jobs that he could 876 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 2: do so that he would get some pay at the 877 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 2: end of the week and he would have to do 878 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 2: those tasks without being asked, and she said he was dedicated, 879 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 2: so cute. When he got to his goal, he then 880 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,879 Speaker 2: decided to wait for another week so he didn't leave 881 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,280 Speaker 2: himself with an empty wallet. 882 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 3: So he was learning the importance of an emergency fund early. 883 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 2: What a genius is. 884 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 3: Coming for my job, Christy? 885 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 2: Exactly, your child watch back off. When he did go 886 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 2: to buy the skateboard, it was more than they thought. 887 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 2: So now he's paying off a little debt to mum. 888 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 2: So great experience. Yeah, so many good ideas in there 889 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,919 Speaker 2: as well. We obviously can't get to all of them, 890 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 2: but do head to the Facebook group guys and have 891 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 2: a little flick through them. I don't know what you 892 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,359 Speaker 2: used to search search teaching kids about money and it'll 893 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 2: pop up, but yeah, really great ideas in there, So 894 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 2: thank you to everyone who contributed. 895 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely. 896 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 2: Before we head off today, any resources for our listeners 897 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 2: to refer to to back up this chat? 898 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,720 Speaker 3: Absolutely? And you all saw this one coming, are you ready? 899 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,240 Speaker 3: It's the Money Smart website, our favorite, the Money Smart 900 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 3: website this time really pulled through with the goods guys. 901 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 2: They have a. 902 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: Breakdown of different activities that you can complete with your 903 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 3: kids based on their ages to help them learn about 904 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 3: their money. So we'll link that in the show notes 905 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 3: so that you don't miss out on that one. And 906 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 3: then there are also board games like Pocket Money, which 907 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 3: Kiglie from our community recommended was great. Monopoly is also 908 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 3: another course of action if you want to teach them 909 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 3: about money, but again, if you don't want to have 910 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,399 Speaker 3: family fights, maybe avoid that one because that's how that 911 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 3: game ended in our family each and every single time. 912 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 3: And Fee from our group actually shared a link last 913 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 3: year to a resource from the Smith family which is 914 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 3: great for younger kids, so we'll also link that in 915 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 3: our show notes. And yeah, I think that there are 916 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 3: some really fun resources there. In fact, I'm probably going 917 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 3: to post on the day that we drop this a 918 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 3: thread to asking people more questions about pocket money and 919 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 3: how they learn about pocket money and money growing up, 920 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 3: because I just think it's such an interesting topic to 921 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 3: see how you grew up with money but how you 922 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 3: are with it now, Like that's super pervy. So unfortunately Georgia. 923 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 3: With that, I think we're done for today and that 924 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 3: is who we are.
