Krista Fettke: On How to Raise Financially Independent Children

My daughter Krista is living in Barcelona as Part II of a study abroad program that was interrupted last year by the pandemic. She’s doing it all on her own, financially, by her own choice. I'm visiting her right now and am so impressed with her independence at such a young age, I grabbed a mic and asked if I could interview her for The Real Wealth Show!

It’s confusing as a parent to know when to give and when to say “no.” We want to be loved by our children, and sometimes think that our constant stream of giving will earn that love. But perhaps it’s not the financial gifting that matters as much as the gift of belief -- that they can have whatever their heart desires -- if they commit to it.

In this episode, you’ll hear more about Krista’s experience being raised in our family during a time, initially, when we had very little financial resources but tremendous wealth nonetheless. And how witnessing the growth of Real Wealth Network over the years, from the inside, has had a great impact on her wealth mindset.
