What’s Next for the Cash Kid Podcast?

Hey Cash Kids!

First off, I huge thank you for joining this podcast and helping us grow this audience. In just the first season of the Cash Kid Podcast, we’ve watched this audience grow daily. It’s got friends and family I know talking about their finances more and asking questions to make better financial decisions. I’m learning along with you and so glad you are here with us on this journey.

This episode will mark the end of the first season of the Cash Kid Podcast… but no worries! A new season will start in just two to three weeks. Where are we headed? That and more of my thoughts on this podcast and it’s future…, coming up. The Cash Kid Podcast is underway.

Intro tease:

So you’ve got some cash. Maybe from an allowance, or that money your grandma gave you for your 7th birthday (Here you go, sweetie.) Thanks, grandma.

Whatever it is, what are you going to do with it? Spend it, hide it away… or maybe invest it? Let’s start learning how to make that money grow.

Time to learn how to be a cash kid. (cash register)

First, let’s rewind (tape rewinding effect) and talk about how this podcast even got started.

I was given an assignment in school to create a passion project. Many of my classmates were doing fundraisers, or creating websites to share knowledge about a non-profit or health issue. But I knew what my passion was… the stock market and investing, so I wanted to create a podcast. My teacher said I would be the first to create a podcast from this project.

I came home and told my Mom.. and in full disclosure, I knew I had the materials to create a podcast. You see, my Mom is a full-time voice-over talent and we have a sound studio in our home. When I told her what I wanted to do, she said great… but in her mind, I think she was panicking a little.

Mom: I wouldn't say I was panicking. I just saw myself getting a lot less sleep.

We set out to create 4 episodes. And if you go back AND review the first four you’ll see I started out talking first about the stock market because well, that’s what I’m passionate about. We got great feedback and my teachers, friends, and family encouraged me to continue it. So, we met with a podcast producer to get some guidance and we’ve been growing the podcast ever since. We have so many plans and topics we feel we can cover. From financial literacy terms, what jobs can kids do to make money, how to get your first job, scholarships, and of course how to start investing early. It’s my goal to help my generation, Gen Alpha, to be the smartest financial generation ever. I mean, why not?! Think of how many problems that could solve.

But I’ve also learned from adults talking to me about the podcast, they are finding the information useful as well. I’m grateful for all listeners, young and young at heart.

So, if you haven’t yet, please go back and start from episode 1 and listen in. This first season we touched on a little bit of everything from the stock market, budgeting, investment advice, the type of spender or saver you are, and interviewed three other fellow “Cash Kids” on how they're making money.

In season two, we plan to start breaking it down and we feel the best way to do that is focus on financial terms… that frankly, many adults don’t even know or understand.

As we move into season 2 though, I wanted to communicate ways to be engaged and never miss out.
