Finite Resources


Listen Later

We may indeed live in a world in which we can get whatever we want whenever we want it, but there's a problem with such instant (and incessant!) gratification: Resources are finite. 

On today's show, a conversation with blogger and author Liz Frugalwoods about how to teach our children that money doesn't grow on trees and buying new isn't consequence-free.

 

Here's a preview:

[4:30] Getting our kids on board: How to reframe eco-frugality as a game

[11:00] Proaction as a handy Waste Not, Want Not tool 

[20:00] The why and how behind early financial education for our children

[24:00] Real-time financial literacy: How to kick off a chore routine for kids

[32:00] Liz's thoughts on normalizing secondhand as a means of preserving finite resources
