I'm very passionate about teaching children's financial literacy and business because with social media, it's easy for children to get caught up in the flashy and shiny materialist things. I like to teach kids about business and how to use the mistakes in business to scale and grow. I have expertise in this area as I've written three books, taught financial literacy & business at schools, and own a few different businesses. After I graduated college, I was thrown into the 'real world' with a good job and learned my lessons the hard way by spending too much money on things that did not matter. Hence my passion to want to help The Misguided.

This eventually led to my niece asking questions about money and how to manage, save, and invest it. That's amazing to hear a young person start to think about money.

This book is for your older children and may be best to read with an adult as there is very minor explicit wording (I've counted one).
I really like this book because it helps with Mindset. When learning about money, can be confusing, exhausting, and overall not fun. Kids want to spend their money, it's human nature, and it's okay to want to feel like that so I am recommending this book because it allows the kids what can happen when they put in the work.
This is another great recommendation for older kids.
This book focuses on the drive to want to be better and the mindset that may be holding us back. I really enjoyed this book and although it is not geared towards financial literacy, it's geared towards the mindset and actions that can lead your child to want to be better with their finances.

Teaching children about financial literacy is important because it sets them up for success in the future. Learning about financial concepts, such as budgeting, saving, and investing, can help children understand the value of money and how to manage it effectively. It also teaches them to make informed decisions about their finances and develop good financial habits early on. Without proper financial literacy education, children may grow up and make bad financial decisions. Moreover, financial literacy can provide children with a sense of independence and responsibility as they learn to manage their own money. Overall, financial literacy education is an essential life skill that can positively impact a child's financial well-being and long-term success.
