[REPLAY] Joline Godfrey – Raising Financially Fit Kids
Manage episode 356798624 series 3262460
How do you raise financially fit kids?
Joline Godfrey has spent a lifetime helping families to do just this. Trained as a social worker, Joline has spent most of her career being involved with kids; much of it focused on resilience. Joline has focused on this issue in a way that few people have been able.
Joline believes that financial fluency is a family activity, not just something to help kids with. When the values, practices, and conversations are woven into the family culture, this work can be easy and fun, preparing our kids for the future.
To build and understand financial fluency, you should think about it in terms of it being developmental. Building blocks that include financial, intellectual, social, and human capital (FISH).
Even for kids growing up with significant abundance, there is all too little awareness of 'what things cost' and their obligations when it comes to spending, saving, borrowing, and investing.
Joline points out that we should expand the notion of what it means to be wealthy. With raising financially fit kids, we as parents have the capacity to build strength in our kids into adulthood.
