Are you ready to arm your children with the crucial skill of financial literacy? Join us as we pick the brain of Chad Willardson, founder, and president of Pacific Capital and author of four books focused on finance and literacy. A parent of five, Chad's unique approach to teaching his children about money is both unconventional and inspiring. From opening bank accounts at a tender age to forgoing the traditional forms of allowance, Chad offers a fresh perspective on preparing children for financial success. Our conversation quickly turns to the importance of instilling the concepts of cash flow, taxes, and the value of earning in children. We explore Chad’s interesting home economy model, designed to give kids an early start in financial skills. We also discuss his innovative company, Gravy Stack, which ingeniously combines banking with games, making financial education fun for kids. On a deeper level, we discuss how to balance wealth protection and generosity, a principle Chad strongly advocates for. As we engage further, we delve into the crucial topic of legacy. How can we leave a legacy that outlasts us? How should we encourage our kids to embrace financial literacy? Chad not only shares his insights on these matters but also brings a personal touch with a powerful message from his grandmother about the role of relationships in legacy. We conclude by examining ways to translate financial literacy into real-life experiences for kids and the significance of leaving an enduring legacy. Join us on this enlightening journey as we unpack the keys to raising financially-competent children.
