Watching Trees Grow is a money and personal finance podcast for Gen Z. Grow your knowledge of finance and understand the consequences of your money choices.
Office Hours is a 10-week series that brings the classroom to the Troutwood Community. Troutwood CEO, Gene Natali, has taught collegiate personal finance since 2015.
In Week 4 of Office Hours:
We begin with a review of Kweku Obed's Podcast episode, The ABCs of Investment Consulting. Students were asked to listen to Kweku, and then write down and discuss 3 actionable steps they could apply to their financial plans.
ABCs of Investment Consulting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQ7MsKEVvgE
Three takeaways from the conversation with Kweku:
1) Don't letting emotion drive your money decisions.
2) Gaining a better understanding of what it means to be a long-term investor.
3) It is possible to pursue your passion and love what you do.
We then covered:
- Debt
- Credit Cards
- Introduced the importance of insurance and emergency funds (important to cover in a complete future episode)
- Budgeting (Stress the importance of using data from www.bls.gov, Bureau of Labor Statistics)
-Soft introduction to investing
