Life in a Spreadsheet

More than 400,000 children around the world have learned to play the violin through the Suzuki Method. But Suzuki wasn't trying to produce world-class musicians. Instead, he viewed the violin as a means to an end. In this episode, Kevin Mahoney, CFP®, who specializes in financial planning for Millennials, discusses how Suzuki's experience with the violin mirrors our own experiences with money. Like many childhood violin practices, the environment in which we make financial decisions often makes us miserable. We're taught to focus on numbers at the exclusion of almost everything else. But most of us aren't trying to reach the end of our lives with as much wealth as possible. Instead, we view our money as a means to an end. And we can learn from Suzuki how to use our money to create the lives that we dream about for ourselves and our family. Welcome to Financially Well, the finance podcast for Millennials.
