In this episode of Financial IQ, your host Kerry — Chartered Accountant, money mentor, and founder of Money University™ and her son Connor (13) — Gamer, saver, and co-host.
Connor recently saved $2,000 for his own computer using our four-card system.
You’ll hear simple, kid-friendly tips that build confidence fast, then Connor jumps into the Hot Seat to share how real kids think about money goals, chores, and that “OMG it’s growing!” feeling.
Last episode we shared the four-card system (Spend | Save | Invest | Give). Today we pull the Save Card and show your child how saving becomes a superpower—by naming a goal, paying themselves first, and watching progress grow week by week. Stick around for Connor’s Hot Seat and a quick family challenge you can try tonight.
Why kids need this—now
Schools rarely teach it. Kids learn to read and write—but not to budget, save, invest, or give.
Money is mostly digital. In-app purchases and tap-to-pay make spending feel invisible; kids need visible rules and habits.
Habits form early. Simple wins (name a goal, save weekly, track progress) build identity: “I’m good with money.”
Confidence beats control. When kids understand choices, they don’t sneak or stress; they plan.
It’s a family language. Weekly money moments create connection, not conflict.
