Money Tips for Launching Financial Grownups

Bobbi Rebell, CFP® is the author of Launching Financial Grownups: Live Your Richest Life by Helping Your (Almost) Adult Kids Become Everyday Money Smart, a financial literacy advocate, the host of the Money Tips for Financial Grownups podcast and the founder of GrownupGear.com. She was previously a global business news anchor and personal finance columnist at Reuters and held various journalist positions at top news outlets, including CNBC, CNN, and PBS. Bobbi discusses the importance of gift-giving to children and how it can help them become financially successful adults. She also provides advice for parents on how to raise financially responsible children and how to ensure financial security post-divorce.


  • Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, parents can now keep their children on their health insurance plan and have other financial ties to them until age 26.
  • After a divorce, it’s important to take some time for introspection and identify what’s important to you. When reentering the dating pool and going into another marriage, you should have common values with your partner. That doesn’t mean you have to agree with every financial decision - you should just want the same things.
  • Talking about money in a kind and respectful way is conducive to building and maintaining a healthy relationship. When disagreements arise, be sure to pick your battles wisely.
  • Oversubsidizing your children to a level where it hurts your future also hurts them. There will come a time when you can no longer sponsor their livelihood, which leaves them floundering as they have not learned how to be a skilled financial grownup.
