Returning guest Evan Wilson joins host John Lanza to talk about how his allowance system has evolved since his initial podcast appearance five years ago. He discusses helping his kids become savvy investors by adopting an ownership mentality, thinking about risk on the money-smart journey and wanting his kids to experience investing ups and downs when they are young. Evan and John also address leveraging compound interest, building wealth, starting the money conversation early and transitioning from money jars to debit cards.
