Kids Finance

Family Money Talks

Although many of us had to learn our money lessons at the school of hard knocks, we can make our children’s lives easier. In today’s age, our children have even more temptations than we did. From birth, they are inundated with messages from advertisers to “buy, buy, buy!”
FACT: A typical kid is exposed to more than one million advertisements by the time they reach age 21.

To counteract the conditioning to spend and give children good money management knowledge, teaching kids and teens personal finance lessons becomes essential.
Bottom line: Financial habits are formed early. We should begin teaching kids lessons about personal finances when they’re young. If they are already older now, that’s OK. It is critical that they receive professional-level training prior to moving out on their own.
By giving them practical lessons in formats to which they can easily relate, you’ll establish an educational foundation that supports continued financial education training as they mature.

How we deliver the THRIVE PROGRAM

The THRIVE program provides people with a complete wide-angle view of their financial world. Let us help you make the choices that are right for your future through the following sessions:

Protect First; Always consider protection first. You want to plan first for what may happen today before you plan for what may happen tomorrow. Without adequate protection, your wealth is left exposed to unexpected life events.

Save and Grow; Investing the right way means more than simply chasing a rate of return. A focus on minimizing risk and becoming more tax efficient allows you to make money while still having enough cash on hand to cover emergencies.

Leverage cashflow; Make the most of what you have. We’ll help improve your cash flow by showing you how to: live a budgeted lifestyle, reduce your debt, increase your discretionary income, gain tax efficiency.

Retire Right; How much do you need for retirement? Forget whatever arbitrary numbers you’ve heard. Future market performance, medical and tax expenses, and even your own longevity are impossible to anticipate. There is a better way to plan for retirement that doesn’t involve guessing about the future.
