Episode 237-Vince Shorb on the Importance of Financial Literacy-with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

Welcome to Episode 237 of Building My Legacy.

In this podcast we talk with Vince Shorb, a thought leader in teaching and scaling financial education programming. Vince shares with us how he developed a passion and interest in money from a young age and was always frustrated that high schools didn’t teach students financial literacy — something that benefits all students. If you’ve ever wondered how to begin educating your own children about money management — or you need help yourself to reach financial wellness — you’ll find our discussion especially valuable.

So if you want to know:

What financial literacy really means
When children begin to develop habits about their finances and what influences them most
How parents can take advantage of financial “teachable moments”
The biggest challenges most people face with regard to personal finance
The role behavior and sentiment play in money management
