In this episode g, Chad and Scott delve into the topic of how the story we tell our kids about money can have lasting effects on their financial mindset. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the influence our own childhood experiences have on our attitudes towards money and how we unknowingly pass them on to our children. They discuss the potential negative impacts, such as entitlement, anxiety, and trauma, that can result from not being aware of the stories we are telling about money. By understanding the power of the narratives we create, we can avoid driving our kids over the potholes of financial missteps and instead foster a healthy and empowered relationship with money for future generations. The story you tell your kids about money will stay for generations. The story of your money can ruin your kids. The story of money can create high stress and anxiety. Money should be viewed as a tool, not the end-all be-all. Parents should have conversations about their own childhood stories and how they want to shape the story of money for their kids.
