85: Founders of the My First Nest Egg app talk about how they got their kids involved in housework

from The Joyful Frugalista · host joyfulfrugalista

During COVID, friends Nicolle Hood and Annie Shoen felt that their (combined) seven children were beginning to act entitled. Specifically, they weren't doing much housework - and they thought their parents could buy virtually anything at the click of a button. Realising there was a bigger problem around financial literacy for children, the pair decided to create an app - My First Nest Egg. In this podcast, Nicolle and Annie discuss incentivising housework through gamification, teaching financial literacy and lean innovation. This podcast was recorded live at #fincon22, and the sound quality is less than perfect. We apologise and hope you will still enjoy the messages.   Love the sound of the My First Nest Egg app and want to use it? Use the promo code JOYFUL to use it for free.
