What Can You Do?

Just-in-Time Financial Parenting (and grand-parenting)!
• Be intentional in your interactions
• Engage in adult dialogue about financial matters - “Why” not just “Facts”
• Expect more…do less
• Model positive financial behaviors, especially ongoing learning
• Help them become a path finder and/or a follower (not a drifter)
