Episode Summary

You might’ve read the title of this episode and thought, ‘well, that sounds contradictory…’, but Clifton Corbin will tell you it’s anything but. Since we start forming habits by age 7, it’s even more important that we’re teaching our young one’s the most effective ways to save — not to mention ourselves.

Clifton is author of the new book Your Kids, Their Money: A Parent's Guide to Financially Literate Children. He holds an MBA and was a financial and business analyst before stepping up to make financial literacy approachable for kids and their parents.

In this episode, Clifton and host Anastasia Barbuzzi discuss why he despises piggy banks (and why you should demolish yours), how to teach financial lessons to your kids time-efficiently, and the importance of storytelling when it comes to teaching personal finance.

Even if you don’t have kids, Your Kids, Their Money is a great, jargon-free guide to becoming financially literate. As someone who was once stuck in a negative financial position, Clifton’s main goal is to make financial concepts “easy to consume and convey” for everybody.
