Kids & Money with Nigel Latta

New Zealand psychologist and author Nigel Latta joins Sharesies' co-founder Brooke Roberts in the second episode of our "Kids & Money" series. In this episode, we discuss the importance of teaching kids about money, including concepts of saving and how temperament impacts a child's approach to finances. Nigel shares insights from his experience educating his own children about money and explains why conveying values to children affects their behavior, including financial decisions. In this special "Kids & Money" summer series, hosted by Sharesies' co-founder Brooke Roberts, we offer a slate of conversations about how to engage kids in financial discussions. Topics range from strategies to maintain their interest, to lessons on investing that children can apply throughout their lives. Ultimately, we believe that instilling good financial habits in our children can foster positive change within our community.  00:00 Introduction 01:13 Who is Nigel? 03:55 The role of psychology in everyday life 05:47 The concept of Parentland 10:53 Understanding money and its Value 14:26 The influence of money on children 18:38 Pocket money and teaching financial literacy to children 22:17 Why values the most important thing when it comes to kids & money 27:14 How does Nigel feel about the money lessons he's instilled in his kids? 30:03 The Importance of Open Conversations about Money 33:50 Parenting is a long conversation 37:03 The Role of Technology in Teaching Financial Literacy 39:47 Conclusion  For more or to watch on youtube—check out http://linktr.ee/sharedlunch Brought to you by Sharesies, with BusinessDesk.
