Description

You’ve heard of money hacks before, but probably not like this. For the teenagers and parents of teenagers listening, this episode will give you everything you need to make yourself, or your child, financially successful, straight out of high school. Most parents think that a strong financial foundation is built through allowances, debit cards, and making their child get an after-school job. While none of that is bad advice, it doesn’t leave the teenager with a sense of financial security or knowledge of how to manage money.Thankfully, the Sheek Freak himself, Dan Sheeks, is back on the show to give his “ultimate teen money hack for parents.” This strategy has been built through years of teaching children how to manage and make money and is one of the easiest ways to get teens on the correct financial path. This isn’t an overcomplicated strategy, but it will take some buy-in from your teen. What they’ll get out of it is far more independence, responsibility, and the ability to save and invest for a better future.But Dan isn’t the only guest on today’s episode! We also have Carl Jensen and Claire Jensen joining us! Claire is fifteen years old, putting her in the perfect position to take ownership of her finances. She also asks some insightful questions your teen might ask when you try out this strategy. Thankfully, Claire is a fan of Dan's system, and she encourages all the parents (and teens) out there to try it too!In This Episode We CoverThree couples with three different ways of splitting finances How to combine monthly cash flow so that bills are paidThe bright side of prenuptial agreements and why every married couple should have oneRespecting your partner's money mindset by building a spouse-specific system for the two of youSaving for your child's college and whether or not higher education is worth it as college becomes increasingly optionalAdvice for couples who will (or already) combine their finances and investingAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Money Facebook GroupBiggerPockets ForumsFinance Review Guest OnboardingMindy's TwitterDavid on BiggerPocketsDavid’s Site From Military to MillionaireListen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceApply to Be a Guest on The Money ShowPodcast Talent Search!Subscribe to The “On The Market” YouTube ChannelListen to The “On The Market” Podcast: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, BiggerPocketsCheck Out Mindy’s 2022 Live Spending Tracker and BudgetMile High FI Podcast1,500 Days to FreedomWhy You’re (Probably) Wrong About PrenupsInterested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?
