  • Great listen!

    Just listened to your latest episode with Crystina Cardozo. It's a great listen, even for someone like me who doesn't have a natural passion for numbers, but wishes I did. Her journey was inspiring. The emphasis on financial literacy is vital.

Making Personal Finance Fun and Hands-On with Stephen Day
Q: How can teachers scale a classroom economy to larger classes or multiple sections?
He recommends running market days, assigning roles to students, using teams, and leveraging virtual tools; start small with spend-or-save days and gradually expand to more complex structures as students gain experience.
Making Personal Finance Fun and Hands-On with Stephen Day
Q: What changes would you recommend to improve most classroom economy designs?
Day suggests focusing on buying things students wouldn't usually get, rather than commodities they routinely receive, and emphasizes creating classroom businesses so students act as producers and investors rather than just consumers.
Making Personal Finance Fun and Hands-On with Stephen Day
Q: What was the moment that inspired you to write Teach a Kid to Save?
Day explains that the idea emerged from his teaching and observation that kids benefit most when learning money habits are linked to their values and long-term goals, rather than simply saving for a future reward; the title evolved after testing ideas with friends on social media.
Howard "Pete" Colhoun on Democratizing Investment Knowledge
Q: How do you persuade schools to adopt financial literacy programs?
Offer to fund the program, demonstrate peer adoption by competitors, and show tangible benefits such as classrooms that integrate real-world money management with modern technology.
Howard "Pete" Colhoun on Democratizing Investment Knowledge
