About this episode
How do we raise the next generation to be financially wise in a world obsessed with "getting rich quick"? In this episode, Lance Roberts sits down with financial writer Benjamin Gran to discuss the right way to teach children about money, work, and investing. From saving before investing, to understanding the true value of work, and avoiding the pitfalls of speculative frenzies — we cover everything from Enron and Kozmo.com to the meme-stock craze and the AI hype cycle on Wall Street. Benjamin and Lance break down how to build long-term investing habits that last, why risk management and time horizons matter more than "hot tips," and how classic investing wisdom from John Bogle, Warren Buffett, and Charlie Munger still applies today. You'll also hear how parents can instill financial literacy and responsibility early — through chores, jobs, and saving — not just allowances and apps. The real secret? Teaching kids that saving money feels as good as spending it, and that success is built on work ethic, patience, and purpose. 🔔 Subscribe for more market insights, behavioral finance lessons, and real-world money talk that helps you think beyond the headlines. #FinancialEducation #TeachingKidsAboutMoney #InvestingWisely #FinancialLiteracy #MoneyLessons
