After their conversation with financial expert Bobbi Rebell, Tom and Amber return to a surprisingly thorny question: How much should we tell our kids about our money? From sharing your income to explaining a budget cut, they explore the delicate balance of authenticity, care and preparing kids for the real world of money.
Drawing on listener stories, family dynamics and wisdom from spiritual traditions, Tom and Amber unpack how age, maturity, personality and values shape these decisions. They wrestle with what transparency looks like in practice — and when discretion might be the more loving choice.
Along the way, they dive into real-life dilemmas: correcting a kid’s misconception about your wealth, responding to bragging, making generosity visible and deciding what your kids need to know about inheritances.
It’s a thoughtful, practical guide to the conversations that shape how kids understand money — and themselves.
