  • Episode 161:Teaching Teens the Value of Money

    Teaching kids about the value of money is an important life lesson that can help them develop good financial habits in the long run. It's never too early to start teaching your kids about money and its value. In this episode, Melissa Fradenburg, AIF, ® shares three tips to help you get started. 

    •  By helping teens understand the difference needs and wants, they can learn to prioritize their spending and make informed financial decisions. 
    • Setting boundaries with spending but allowing your child to make decisions around money while the stakes are low.  Earning money, whether it's a job or an allowance is so important to developing good money making decisions in adulthood.
    • If you want your kids to be financially responsible, then you need to be financially responsible too. Talk to your kids about how you manage your money, and let them see you make smart financial decisions. For example, if you are saving up for a big purchase, explain to your kids how you are budgeting your money to reach your goal.

  • Episode 158: Important Estate Planning Documents for Adult Children With Liz Derrick

    As children turn 18 and become legal adults, it's important for parents to be aware that they no longer have legal authority over their child's finances, healthcare, or personal decisions. This means that parents should encourage their children to create certain estate planning documents to ensure their wishes are carried out in the event of incapacity or death. In this episode, Liz Derrick, Senior Vice President of Partnership Development with LPL Financial, shares her personal story about needing to go to court during her daughter's health crisis. It's important for adult children to work with an estate planning attorney to create a Health Care Proxy and Durable Power of Attorney.  With these documents in place, parents can have peace of mind knowing that their child's wishes will be carried out in the event of incapacity or death.
