For years adults have been asking me about what to do about allowance.  When do I start?  How much should I give my kids?  What if I can’t get money to my kids each week and on time?  Will I fail before I start?

My friend, Sandy Waters with the Seven Figures Podcast, a smart money strategies podcast for women, has started a new segment called “A Seat at the Kids Table” where I get the chance to answer questions about kids and money topics each week.  The first topic?  You guessed it – Allowance!

Here is a video of that podcast segment and my thoughts about allowance (Spoiler alert: I’m a BIG fan! 😉).

 

Feel inspired to get an allowance going with your own kids?  Here are a few FREE resources from our website to help you get up and running:

If you do get allowance started with your kids, then tell me how things are going.  Or if you have questions or stories of allowance successes and/or challenges, please add them as a comment below.  I would love to hear from you and help if I can!
