Description:

Tim welcomes Ted Daniels, whose work has helped empower thousands of students through HBCUs and peer-to-peer, student ambassador programs. Ted shares the personal moments that sparked his mission, from balancing a family checkbook in high school to advising federal coworkers who didn't understand basic investing. Together, they dig into the topics students most want: value-based budgeting, improving credit, and learning how to invest without falling for get-rich-quick schemes. The conversation also tackles modern challenges like gambling, cryptocurrency hype, and how AI is shaping money management—while emphasizing that foundational financial knowledge is still essential. You'll hear practical strategies for teaching investing patiently, building wealth over time, and making smart financial habits easier by designing the right environment. The chat ends with inspiring outcomes, including evidence of measurable impact, real career success stories, and Daniels' award-winning children's book that helps families start money conversations early!
