Many millennials are rethinking money, housing, and long-term security in today’s economic environment.

Bram Kanstein, host of Bitcoin for Millennials, joins The Honest Money Show to discuss how money has evolved, why traditional paths to wealth feel increasingly uncertain, and how Bitcoin is reshaping conversations around value, scarcity, and personal agency.

The conversation explores generational shifts in financial thinking, the psychology of money, and the role of housing in long-term planning. Rather than focusing on price or speculation, the episode approaches Bitcoin as a framework for understanding incentives, responsibility, and long-term decision-making.

🎙️ EPISODE SUMMARY

Anja and Bram discuss Bram’s journey into Bitcoin, the motivation behind launching Bitcoin for Millennials, and the diverse, intergenerational audience engaging with these ideas. They examine how monetary systems shape behaviour, how assumptions around wealth and housing are changing, and why authenticity and personal responsibility matter in both finance and content creation.
