April is financial literacy month, and in celebration we will be sharing two special episodes focusing on personal finance for your kids. Christian works for the nation’s #1 provider of teacher professional development for personal finance, as I did with the same organization in a previous role and was a former personal finance teacher. Dr. Ross teaches a personal finance class at the University of Kentucky is personal finance.
Today we discuss the lessons and resources parents can use to teach their own children money lessons.
