Children’s Finance Course
Do I need to know what I’m doing with finances to use the course?
Absolutely not. There is a Finance 101 for parents in the beginning, and then you can learn everything else through the videos as you teach your kids. They say teaching is the best form of learning.
How much of the content is for parents and how much is for kids?
The largest portion of the course is meant to equip you to teach your children; however, there are many videos directly for your children. We're also uploading new videos for kids all the time.
General Questions
What are my credentials?
While climbing out of debt for two years, I read hundreds of finance books and completely changed my perspective. I went from knowing absolutely nothing about money to having a solid plan for leaving a legacy to my children. I've been writing about finance since 2013. I'm not an expert, but I love to learn and I've learned a lot. Oh yeah, and I have a degree in Finance, but that isn't where most of my financial knowledge came from.
Is Freedom Sprout a Christian blog?
Yes, but everyone can benefit from the information. We teach from a Christian perspective, but the principles are universal.
Why the name, Freedom Sprout?
The name came naturally (or maybe supernaturally) as we were praying and preparing to start the course.
Freedom – 1c: the quality or state of being exempt or released usually from something onerous (a burden).
We’re breaking the generational curses of financial bondage.
Sprout – 2: to send out new growth.
Financial freedom is often a new concept to families.
