Money Made Easy

🎙 On this episode of Get Ready Before Life Happens Podcast, I’m joined by Rishi Vamdatt, the teenage creator of Easy Peasy Finance — a multi-award-winning platform making financial literacy fun and accessible for kids, parents, and beginners.

💡 Key Takeaways:

🔹 An allowance is a powerful way to teach money responsibility.
🔹 Keep it simple — use clear, everyday language.
🔹 Make money fun by tying it to daily activities kids already know.
🔹 Teachers don’t have to be experts — they can learn alongside students.
🔹 Frugality matters, but spending on happiness is important too.
🔹 Financial literacy reduces stress later in life if started early.
